Question
We have a large front yard (1 acre +/-).  It is all lawn... nothing breaking it up.  I'd like to take a small section of the lawn, remove the sod, and put in a small landscaped area.  Maybe incorporate a large rock (we have some boulders that were removed when we built the house).  I have looked on the internet for ideas for this type of landscape area, but can't find anything.  Is there a specific term used for a landscaped area in the middle of a yard?  Either there isn't much internet space devoted to this sort of thing, or I am not using correct wording in my internet searches.
thanks
