Modern tropics garden is applying two different garden elements, it can be the combination of tropics plants, and modern hard-scape element. These two concepts will create a simple, but beautiful and easy caring garden.

Tropics plants like Heliconia, bamboo or orchid for example will look very dynamic if being managed in hard-scape designs, like geometric pool and a cylinder artificial water fountain.

The modern touch can also be created by adding a lighting effect, that will expose the burst in the middle of the fountain. To minimize the using of grass, we can put some wooden shelf/board which can also widen the terrace space.
