Katsura Tree (Cercidiphyllum japonicum) I love using these trees in projects because of their graceful, arching branches and brightly colored oval-shaped leaves. As a bonus, when fall rolls around, Katsura trees put on an olfactory show that will stop you in your tracks. As their leaves turn color, they release the rich smell of burnt sugar, filling the garden with an aroma that smells just like a kitchen at Christmas.

Add Perspective With Repetition. This line of variegated yuccas planted in tall containers is more than just decoration — it employs a favorite feature of contemporary garden design, repetition. To achieve the best results, each container needs to mirror the next with an identical planting — the simpler, the better. Repetition can help create perspective and harmony within a design, especially in smaller spaces where boundaries need to be defined.A repetitive line of containers can make a garden appear longer or wider. river rocks base
