Tips for a VERY small yard

If you have a very small yard, you might consider hardscaping most of the yard (using pavers, brick, or stones), with maybe a small portion of lawn as a kind of carpet. Consider creating levels to your plantings, similar to a forest, with a canopy, understory, and groundcover. This gives the eye layers to look at and eliminates the flatness of the landscape.
