Landscape Renovations for Spring
With spring time just a couple of months away, it is the time to start planning your eco landscape renovation plans for the New Year. There is a range of ways that you can update your garden and outdoor living space so you can reap as much enjoyment out of it as possible during the warmer months of the year.
Planting Ideas
Whether you plan on planting flowers that will be ready to bloom in the spring or vegetables that come into season during the summer, now is the time to start planning this year’s garden. Many property owners plant their perennials in early spring so they reach full bloom a few weeks later. If you decide to grow your flowers from seed, you may want to purchase and plant the seeds indoors now; you can transplant the flowers outdoors after the last frost has come.
A huge trend in landscaping in recent years is the creation of edible gardens. During the spring, you can start planting tomatoes, squash, and other summer veggies in your garden.
Outdoor Living
A great way to bring your outdoor living space to the next level is the installation of some of the following features:
- Driveways, entryways, sidewalks
- Deck, patios, balconies
- Retaining or garden walls
- Outdoor kitchen
- Fire places, fire pits, barbeques
- Water features
- Pools
- Spas
- Landscape lighting
- Shade structures
- Cabanas
- Furniture
