1. Repeat Colors and Textures – Planting one of everything gives your garden a hodgepodge look. Avoid that by reusing the same colors, shapes, or plant varieties all around your landscape.

2. Make Plants Do Double Duty – If your yard has limited space, it’s important to make the most of it! One key landscape idea is to take advantage of plants that serve more than one purpose.

3. Contrast Bold Colors – One of the easiest and most basic landscaping ideas: Create contrasts. Also, consider color; when you pair rich burgundy-purple with chartreuse, the gold hues seem to become brighter and the purple tones seem to become richer and darker. Together the colors are much more effective than when used alone.

4. Frame Your Garden with Hedges and Fences – Add interest to your yard with structures. Use low fences or hedges, for example, to divide spaces, and give each space or room its own unique identity. Plus, the structures add interest all year long.

We hope these tips help make your garden stunning!
