Proportion matters, so consider the size of your yard as you are looking for special features to add. You may love the large gazebo in your neighbor’s yard, but how would it look in your yard? Is your space big enough or will it feel cramped and crowded? Let the size of your yard dictate the size of the special features you want to add.

Unusual plants can make wonderful focal points, but we encourage you to be selective and factor in how the plant will look throughout the seasons. If your focal point is only a show-stopper part of the year, be sure to balance it with other points of interest that will carry on the visual show year-round.

Asymmetric design and off-center placement of special features are another way to create interest. You can still have a well-balanced design without having your focal point dead center. In fact, most designers avoid placing special features in the middle of a landscape.

Have some fun with color. If your yard is a riot of color in one season, but plain green the rest of the year, consider adding splashes of color with containers, lawn chairs or garden art. As you are placing items, though, we encourage you to keep in mind the first three tips above and use the “less is more” approach so your yard doesn’t become overly cluttered and your focal points can stand out.

Express your style. Yards are much more interesting when they reflect the personal tastes of the owner. Think about a new development vs. an established neighborhood. Yes, the plants are more mature in the older neighborhood, but the yards also no longer look alike. The owners have put their own mark on their yards and the result is a much more interesting landscape overall. And remember, it’s ok to try something different – that’s what makes it interesting!

Some believe that the end of summer also marks the final days of enjoying outdoor barbecues, parties, and casual get-togethers. Yet, just by adding a few design elements to your outdoor space, you can extend the good times through the fall months and even into winter. We’ve come up with 10 easy ways to enjoy your yard throughout the year.

Heat Things Up

It’s easy to extend your time spent outdoors if you simply add a source of heat near seating areas. Besides warming up cold guests, a fire is a nice place to gather around and drink a hot beverage or roast marshmallows. Permanent or portable, consider one of these ways to heat things up:

• Firepit
• Outdoor fireplace
• Outdoor heater

Add More Lighting

It gets dark earlier in the fall, so add more lighting and readjust timers to illuminate your outdoor spaces. Lighting fixtures can be solar and LED, along with different types, like path markers, spotlights, and patio string lights.

Weatherproof Furniture

If you want to enjoy your patio or outdoor space beyond summer, make sure your garden furniture is weather-resistant. Furniture made from materials like powder-coated steel, teak, and polyresin wicker are built to withstand the elements and last through many seasons. Also, cover it and bring in cushions and pillows when it rains or snows.

Year-Round Gardening

Grow seasonal flowers, herbs, and vegetables in containers on your porch, deck, or patio, close to your house. You’re more likely to spend time outside and become accustomed to the concept of spending time outdoors, even if you have to wear a jacket and gloves. After you’re done with your chores, kick back and enjoy your cozy space.
