Flower Beds and Planters
One of the easiest ways to add vibrancy to your landscape is by planting colorful blooms in flower beds and planters. This simple project can instantly transform your outdoor space and create a welcoming and inviting atmosphere. You can choose from a wide variety of flowering plants and create a design that complements the style and architecture of your property. Depending on the lighting in your area, you may choose from our list of best plants for full sun or best plants for shade lists.

Outdoor Lighting
Outdoor lighting can not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of your property but also improve its safety and security. A well-lit landscape can deter potential intruders and make it easier for you and your guests to navigate your outdoor space after dark. You can choose from a variety of lighting options, including pathway lights, spotlights, and string lights, to create a warm and inviting ambiance. If you live in rural areas, outdoor lights can help you find your driveway and deter night-time animals that prefer darkness as they look for food (which may also deter them from munching on your landscape).

Hardscaping
Hardscaping involves the use of non-living elements, such as stone, concrete, and wood, to enhance the functionality and beauty of your outdoor space. A well-designed hardscape can create distinct outdoor living areas, such as patios, walkways, and retaining walls, that blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings. With the right hardscaping materials and design, you can create a stunning and functional outdoor oasis.

Water Features
Water features, such as fountains, ponds, and waterfalls, can add a sense of tranquility and relaxation to your outdoor space. The sound of running water can create a calming effect and drown out unwanted noise from nearby streets or neighbors. Water features can also attract wildlife, such as birds and butterflies, and add a touch of natural beauty to your landscape.

Tree and Shrub Pruning
Tree and shrub pruning is a vital aspect of landscape maintenance that should not be overlooked. Pruning helps to improve the health and appearance of your trees and shrubs and can prevent potential hazards, such as falling branches. This is especially important during spring in Oklahoma when we tend to experience extreme wind events. A well-maintained landscape with pruned trees and shrubs can significantly enhance the curb appeal and value of your property.
These new landscape projects can help you enhance the beauty, functionality, and value of your property this spring season. By carefully planning and executing these projects, you can create an outdoor space that reflects your style and personality and provides a welcoming and inviting atmosphere for you and your guests.
