It’s hard to keep a landscape looking “fresh” throughout the year. What looks good in summer, may not look so appealing in winter. To that end, the following are some landscape management tips that can help you even things out and give you a stunning landscape regardless of the season.
Start by incorporating plenty of trees and shrubbery. These look fabulous regardless of whether the sun is shining or they’re covered in a layer of snow. Be sure to place these strategically throughout your landscape so that they are always visible and create accent points between flower beds, lawns, and outdoor sitting areas.
Couple these with some fast bloomers such as Forsythia, and even Lilac. These will create a touch of color in the early spring and throughout the summer. This will give your landscape balance, and while the trees are green, they will be pleasantly vibrant shades of color that will last until the leaves take over as they change colors in the fall.
