Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of garden engineering, and specifically relates to a soft and hard landscape connecting structure. BACKGROUND
[0002] In garden engineering, hard landscape and soft landscape are jointly used to create a beautiful and natural landscape effect through ingenious design and layout. As a hard landscape, a road is generally provided with soft landscape such as flowers and grass on both sides of the road to create a beautiful environment. In landscape design and construction, the design and construction of hard landscape and soft landscape inevitably intersect and collide. At present, the transition between soft and hard landscape and soft landscape is hard and unnatural, and the interface is not clear, which leads to problems such as soil erosion of soft landscape, affecting road drainage, and increasing the cost of garden maintenance. SUMMARY
[0003] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a soft and hard landscape connecting structure.
[0004] The technical scheme of the utility model is as follows: a soft and hard landscape connecting structure comprises a road, a lawn area, and a flower area. A pebble area is arranged between the road and the lawn area, and a curved isolation area is arranged between the lawn area and the flower area. Herbaceous plants are planted on the lawn area, and floraceous plants are planted on the flower area.
[0005] Further, drainage ditches are arranged on both sides of the road, and a grating plate is arranged on the top of the drainage ditch; the height of the road near the drainage ditch is lower than the height of the middle part of the road.
[0006] Further, a curb stone is arranged on one side of the pebble area close to the road, and a plurality of through holes are arranged at the bottom of the curb stone.
[0007] Further, the height of the pebble area is lower than the through hole, a soil layer is arranged on the side of the pebble area away from the road, and the lawn area and the flower area are arranged on the soil layer.
[0008] Further, the convex blocks and the concave grooves are arranged between the adjacent curb stones.
[0009] Further, the depth of the pebble area is consistent with the depth of the soil layer, and a water permeable brick is arranged between the pebble area and the soil layer. The height of the water permeable brick is higher than the thickness of the soil layer.
[0010] Further, the isolation area comprises a groove, a PE root isolation belt, and gravel. The PE root isolation belt is arranged in the groove, the gravel is filled in the space between the PE root isolation belt and the groove, and the height of the PE root isolation belt is higher than the thickness of the soil layer.
[0011] Further, the depth of the groove is consistent with the depth of the soil layer.
[0012] Furthermore, the types of herbaceous plants include, but are not limited to, zoysia japonica, bermudagrass, and cynodon dactylon.
[0013] Furthermore, the types of flowering plants include, but are not limited to, dahlias, morning glories, and delphiniums.
[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: the pebble area serves as a clear boundary between the road and the lawn area, while preventing rainwater from washing soil onto the road. The root-stabilizing effect of herbaceous plants keeps the soil layer stable and also contributes to greening; the flower border area, planted with flowering plants along the edge of the isolation zone, forms a curved flower border, enhancing aesthetics. The isolation zone prevents the herbaceous plants in the lawn area and the flowering plants in the flower border area from spreading and encroaching on each other's growing space. This maintains a clear boundary between the lawn area and the flower border area, ensuring the stability of the landscape effect and saving on garden maintenance costs. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0023] The specific embodiments of this utility model will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0024] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a soft and hard landscape transition structure includes a road 1, a lawn area 3, and a flower border area 5. A pebble area 2 separates the road 1 from the lawn area 3, clearly defining the boundary and preventing soil erosion in the lawn area 3. A curved isolation zone 4 separates the lawn area 3 from the flower border area 5. Herbaceous plants 31 are planted on the lawn area 3, while flowering plants 51 are planted on the flower border area 5. The herbaceous plants 31 include, but are not limited to, *Zoysia japonica*, *Zoysia japonica*, and *Bermudagrass*. The flowering plants 51 include, but are not limited to, dahlias, morning glories, and delphiniums. The isolation zone 4 clearly defines the boundary between the lawn area 3 and the flower border area 5, preventing the herbaceous plants 31 and flowering plants 51 from mixing and reducing landscaping maintenance costs.
[0025] Drainage ditches 11 are provided on both sides of road 1. A grating plate 111 is laid on top of the drainage ditches 11 to prevent debris from falling into them and keep them clear. The sides of road 1 closest to the drainage ditches 11 are lower than the middle section of road 1. This slope, with the middle section lower than the sides, facilitates water flow into the drainage ditches 11 and prevents water accumulation on road 1.
[0026] A curbstone 12 is provided on the side of the pebble area 2 closest to the road 1. Multiple through holes 121 are provided at the bottom of the curbstone 12 to facilitate water drainage into the drainage ditch 11. Interlocking protrusions 123 and grooves 122 are provided between adjacent curbstones 12. The cooperation of the protrusions 123 and grooves 122 integrates the curbstones 12 into a whole, improving the overall stability of the curbstones 12. The height of the pebble area 2 is lower than the through holes 121. A soil layer 32 is provided on the side of the pebble area 2 away from the road 1. The lawn area 3 and flower border area 5 are both located on the soil layer 32. The pebble area 2 can filter water flowing down from the lawn area 3, preventing water from carrying soil from the soil layer 32 onto the road 1. The pebble area 2 and the soil layer 32 are at the same depth, and a permeable brick 21 is provided between the pebble area 2 and the soil layer 32. The height of the permeable brick 21 is greater than the thickness of the soil layer 32. The permeable bricks 21 are permeable, preventing water accumulation in the lawn area 3. The pebble area 2 maintains a stable shape thanks to the combined effect of the curb stones 12 and the permeable bricks 21.
[0027] The isolation zone 4 includes a trench 41, a PE root barrier 43, and gravel 42. The PE root barrier 43 is located within the trench 41, and the gravel 42 fills the space between the PE root barrier 43 and the trench 41. The height of the PE root barrier 43 is greater than the thickness of the soil layer 32. The depth of the trench 41 is consistent with the depth of the soil layer 32. The PE root barrier 43 prevents the roots of herbaceous plants 31 or flowering plants 51 from penetrating the soil layer 32 and spreading to each other. The gravel 42 enhances the isolation capacity of the isolation zone 4 and maintains the stable shape of the PE root barrier 43, preventing it from loosening.
[0028] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: drainage ditches 11 are provided on both sides of the road 1, otherwise the road 1 will accumulate water. The road 1 and the lawn area 3 are separated by a pebble area 2. A flower border area 5 is provided on the side of the lawn area 3 away from the road 1, and the flower border area 5 and the lawn area 3 are separated by an isolation area 4.
