- google the terms "horticultural therapy" and you'll find links such as http://www.htinstitute.org/ They have a downloadable PDF focused on "Discussion focused on therapeutic healthcare gardens that are designed for treatment purposes (HT) and the need for research to build a body of knowledge about effective design. The handout (Creating Outdoor Environments for Healing: Program Design Components, Process, Research and Evaluation)for our session can be downloaded here as a PDF." Horticultural therapy is the study of use in landscaping to foster well-being, and is regularly included in landscape design of commercial and common spaces.
- Check out these links where there numerous ideas, landscaping information and photos: My Ideal Garden: http://www.myidealgarden.com/w/pictures-review.html The Landscape Design: http://www.the-landscape-design-site.com/landscapeideasgallery.html Washington Home & Garden: http://www.whgmag.com/ Of course there is Lowes, Home Depot and HGTV online with landscape and design topics. There are also landscape/design software packages too. Good Luck!
- Magazines and books are always a good idea. Try asking in your local DIY superstore as well. This should give you some ideas and themes, if not, follow some of the news items or links on the pages. http://www.outdoorlandscapingdesigns.com
