Small Backyard Landscaping Ideas - Wooden Decks And Wild Grass

Consider building a simple wooden deck in stead of conventional paving. The wood gives an immediate  earthy atmosphere.

This is also a good idea for walkways.

If you don't feel like maintaining the wood, you can always use a deck made out of recycled plastic planks which will have almost the same visual effect. For beds immediately adjacent to the wooden deck, consider using a combination of different long grass species, poppies and lilies.

This will create a very peaceful wild grass area in your garden and it is sure to attract a lot of bird species.
