With summer approaching, it’s an ideal time to take advantage of the spring season, especially when it comes to your home’s exterior. Whether it’s planting flowers or greenery, introducing a vibrant element can enhance your space to feel more welcoming, maintained, and refined. Whether you intend to sell or just want to enhance your outdoor area, here are several ways to integrate floral landscaping that will bring life to your home this summer.
Freshen Up Your Front Porch with Seasonal Planters
Two thoughtfully positioned planters to decorate your entryway can have a significant impact. Blending height, texture, and color can enhance visual interest; consider incorporating tall ornamental grasses, flowing vines, and bright flowers like petunias or tulips. Select planters that improve your home’s outside look for a neat effect.
Brighten Up Walkways and Driveways with Florals
Outlining walkways and driveways with small flowers is an easy method to direct attention and give your landscaping a purposeful appearance. Consider planting salvia, marigolds, or alyssum at the edges- they are resilient and offer vibrant color all summer long.
Adding Flower Beds or Window Boxes
Window boxes or elevated beds beneath windows can provide your home with a delightful, polished look. Populate them with heat-resistant plants such as geraniums, lantana, and more, for a splash of color that attracts attention while needing minimal upkeep. Remember to water consistently and utilize good soil to maintain bright blooms throughout the season.
Use Hanging Baskets
Hanging baskets provide an easy method to introduce layers of color and texture to your outdoor areas — particularly porches, patios, or entrances. Select low-maintenance, popular flowers such as petunias, begonias, or impatiens. These flowers thrive throughout the summer and appear stunning as they spill over the edges of a basket. Incorporate a variety of colors for a bright appearance, and ensure you water frequently — hanging pots often dry out more quickly in hot summer temperatures.
