Out with the old and in with the new.
Native Plants
Native landscaping will never go out of style. It was beneficial last year, ten years ago, and there’s a reason why it’s still trendy in 2021. Native plants are less susceptible to disease because they adapt to their environment. They’re also very low maintenance. If you’re not much of a gardener, you’ll appreciate having native plants on your property. They can tolerate drought, rainfall, winds, and humid conditions.
Outdoor Living Areas
Outdoor living spaces have become prevalent due to social distancing. When there is a patio, deck, or screened porch on your property, you can enjoy the outdoors without the fear of being too close to others. Pergolas and gazebos are also trendy. Homeowners understand the value of optimizing an underutilized lawn.
Off-Season Gardens
It doesn’t have to be spring or summer for you to add some color to your yard. Trees, plants, and shrubs that survive during all seasons will benefit you more than not. Imagine a vibrant garden all-year-long! During winter, container pots are a popular option.
Pollinator Gardens
Many native plants attract pollinators, and for the past few years, homeowners have been taking advantage of this trend. Having pollinators such as bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies in your yard serves as a small contribution to fight climate change.
Ornate Shapes
Homeowners are now taking advantage of more than merely having pretty plants on their lawn. They enjoy intricate and dynamic touches that take their landscapes to the next level. Geometric and ornate shapes are now preferred more than flat and uniformed shapes. This process involves coupling landscaping with hardscaping to add visual interest. Retaining walls, water features, dry river beds, walkways, natural stone features, among other additions, can take your landscape from flat to fantastic.
If you love any of these 2021 landscaping trends, call Carroll Landscaping today and start the new year off on the right foot.
