To make the garden looks neat and defined, it is important to create a sense of order and control in the design.

Ground level of the garden is the main part by creating planting beds since planting beds are the notable feature of French Garden design.

French gardens usually incorporate a cool color pallete that emphasizes greens and whites.

Because of ornamental flowers were rare in France in the 17th century, the color pallete was limited.

Trees, bushes, and topiary had to stand out in other ways, so they were trimmed in geometric forms.

The greys and blues of an iron bench, pergola, or trellis reinforce the cool color scheme for décor.

Water features like reflecting ponds, pools and fountains plays up the geometric patterns as they are often in circular or rectangular shapes.

Stone is an easy element to incorporate into a French garden design which provides balance against the plantings and underpinnings to the entire design.

Pathways enforce order by controlling the route of a visitor to the garden and continues the aspect of geometry with straight lines across and perpendicular to the axis.
