Plant Smart and Organized

One of the easiest ways to make your front yard look appealing and well maintained is to plant smart. Make sure you’re limiting the number of flower species, shrubs or trees, as you don’t want your front yard to look like the jungle entrance.

If you’re looking for order, make sure you don’t have more than 5 different types of flowers, up to 3 types of shrubs, and a tree or two. It may seem like a limited choice, but this amount of flora will definitely make your front yard shine.

Following the principle – less is more, pick just the plants you really love, and those that will most definitely match your front yard. It will help keep your front yard appealing and well held together.

Make Your Front Door Stand Out

When it comes to your front yard, it should be beautiful and organized in a way that complements your home. However, the front yard is there just to help emphasize the overall beauty and appeal of your estate. What this means is that your home needs to be the star of the show, and your front yard needs to point to it.

One way to achieve this is to make your front door stand out. Paint your door with a bright color (or a dark one if your walls are light), and add lighting fixtures next to it. When your front door is a focal point of your front yard, there is a sense of accomplishment once your guests, or potential buyers, reach your home.

Use Paths to Create Inviting Flow

People love when a front yard has its own flow. To achieve this, you can focus on different solutions. Different parts of the world have different options for achieving this natural flow. In Japan, people mostly focus on zen minimalism, natural materials and not too many colors.

In Australia, people tend to create inviting paths which connect sidewalks with driveways. Sydney based landscape architects and professionals can really help you fully understand what type of landscaping will suit your front yard. They can even help you stay true to the neighborhood while keeping your home different and original.

Plan for a Year-Round Interest

When people talk about front yards and backyards, they usually imagine the summer scenario. You’re sitting down with your friends, while the sun shines, enjoying your summer garden. However, people are more likely to visit during autumn and winter months (depending on your location, of course). Knowing how many holidays there are during the fall and winter, it’s perfectly natural to keep your front yard as beautiful as you can throughout the year.

When you’re planning your front yard, make sure you think about evergreen trees, long-lasting shrubs, and flowers resistant to cold. These plants will make your front yard look amazing, and it will provide a safe place for quite a lot of animals during the harsh winter months.

Wrapping it up

A beautiful front yard is a place where you can enjoy during spring and summer, but it’s also a part of the home that leaves first impressions. Having a well maintained front yard can tell a lot about its homeowner, and it can significantly affect the selling price of your home, should you choose to sell it. Do your homework and focus on your front yard – it will cost you some time and effort, but the results will most definitely pay off in the long run.
