4 Landscape Design Ideas to Spruce Up Your Backyard This Spring

Springtime is a season of renewal. After a cold, harsh winter, everything comes back to life. The flowers bloom, the trees turn green, and the world just seems a little brighter and more cheerful. In this time of revival, you may be thinking of giving your backyard some landscaping love.

So what can you do to improve your backyard’s landscaping this spring? We have a few landscape design ideas.

Idea 1: Bringing a Little Color to Your Yard

Winter is such a blah season. We’re all so used to staring at whites, grays, and browns for over three months that bright, cheerful color in your yard is a much-needed change!

Living in Northeastern Pennsylvania, we have a vast array of plantings that brings color to your backyard such as purple rhododendron, white panicled hydrangea, and pretty in pink peonies. The beautiful flowers will not only make your backyard pop but will make the air smelling lovely.

Idea 2: Bringing Your Indoors Outdoors

Outdoor living has become huge this past year, thanks in part to the Covid-19 pandemic. With more people spending more time at home, the need to improve the outdoors to match their indoors has become a necessity.

Outdoor amenities such as patios, pergolas, gazebos, and decks can bring your outdoors to life this summer, allowing you to spend more time outside with loved ones, entertain friends and neighbors, and enjoy quiet nights underneath the stars.

Idea 3: Where There’s Smoke, There’s Fire

Who doesn’t love a roaring fire on a cool spring evening? Fire features for your backyard such as outdoor fireplaces and fire pits can not only warm you up on a chilly night but can create an ambiance to your yard as well as kick your entertainment skills up a notch.

But remember, if you’re planning on installing a fire pit or fireplace, check with your local municipality’s open flame ordinances to make sure you can legally own one in your yard!

Idea 4: A Home Chef’s Dream Kitchen

Who wants to constantly travel back and forth from your kitchen to your backyard when entertaining? Especially when you can install an outdoor kitchen right in your yard!

Outdoor kitchens can extend your living space past the walls of your home into the great outdoors. It can also save on your utility bills, become a focal point for your guests, and can increase the value of your home. Plus, the home chef will love all the extras you can add to the kitchen such as a grill, a smoker, a bar center, even a pizza oven!
