The design of paths in garden can be thought over after all trees are already planted, all necessary utility rooms are built, the site is fenced, and the kitchen garden is plowed. It will be not just footpaths which constantly grow with weeds, and beautiful paved paths. They will be able to improve exterior of garden and to create completeness of image of all landscape.
Before beginning paving of paths in garden, it is necessary to choose material. Weed plants are the meanest enemies for pavements. Filling in track with concrete, it is possible not to remember weeds several years. But, after all, the concreted platforms will crack. And then the grass will begin to fill all cracks. It is also possible to cover footpaths by means of gravel or wood spill. But it is necessary to fight against weeds in this case after all. And from time to time material should be poured.
The tile for paths in garden can consist of identical stones or brick. It can be put rather densely. And then it will be difficult for greens to break through through slots. And if over time the brick cracks, then it will give to path more scenic view. Brick for garden sites it is possible to use not road, but normal construction.
Path width in garden is not less important, than material for it. It should be taken into account that on the site it is necessary to roll the cart. Between beds and beds it is necessary to plan such size of pavement that it was convenient to bypass the garden vehicle. And also it is necessary to provide walks on garden together. If width of path is slightly more than a half-meter, then to one person of it will be for advance quite enough. For couple of people it is necessary to do track with coverage more than a meter. Having decided on material and width it is necessary to draw the plan of garden and to mark on it all necessary paths. Then it is necessary to designate footpaths by rope and to mark curbs lime. And further it is possible to cut the turf and to take out it up to the depth of 20 cm and to condense edges of furrow by means of bar and the hammer. It under condition if the path is brick. The footpath from stone requires smaller depth depending on stone thickness. Further it is necessary to lay brick or stone on the stamped earth on both parties of border of track side. Width of path should be leveled constantly by means of bar. Then on path bottom on depth of 5 cm it is necessary to fill sand and to lay roofing material. It will interfere with growth of lawn. And then it is possible to stack bricks or tiles from stone so that they were level with the earth. They need to be adjusted densely to each other. And the distance between them should be filled up with sand. After rains expect to fall, it is necessary to fill up several times the sidewalk, sweeping from above pavement. If to pick up material of different color, then it is possible to lay out pattern on path. Sometimes for more dense laying of tile use cement slurry.
