With some creative landscaping, a swimming pool can vastly improve the aesthetic appeal of your garden. The outdoor design professionals at Aloha 'Aina Landscaping in Waimanalo, HI, have tips on how to make the most of your swimming pool’s landscaping potential. With their custom garden design and planting services, they can help transform your garden into a lush oasis.

Here are five tips on how to make the most of the space around your swimming pool:

• Add Color With Flowers: Tropical plants such as Hibiscus and other vibrant flowers make a fantastic contrast to the cool blue of a swimming pool’s waters. Line the perimeters of the pool deck with some bright blooms to brighten up the view from the water.
• Get Creative With Stones: A nice stone walkway leading up to the pool is an excellent way to highlight this asset in your garden. You can also create a pool-side terrace using specialty stones; there’s no need to stick with boring concrete.
• Light Up The Night: Pool-side lights can highlight the landscaping efforts you’ve invested in and also allow for nighttime swimming. Having lights near your pool is also a good idea for safety and security reasons.
• Increase Privacy With Landscaping: Adding shrubs or trees around the pool area can add some privacy to your swimming and sunbathing spot. A landscape design expert can advise you as to which types of plants will provide the densest foliage and coverage.
• Invest In Pots & Planters: Adding pots and planters of flowers around the pool area is a simple way to improve its appearance. You can immediately create barriers for privacy and bring some colorful flowers to your garden design with ready-made planters.
