You might be aware that your yard needs a makeover, but you can’t afford a major landscape renovation. That’s okay. At Lawn in Order, we understand that clients have very different budgets when it comes to their landscape design. If you don’t have a lot to spend on your outdoor space, that doesn’t mean it has to lack curb appeal or functionality. Our Decatur landscape design experts can help you find affordable ways to renovate your yard, which can include the following:
Plant Perennials and Annuals
A great way to refresh your landscape is by adding colorful flowers. Planting perennials and annuals can be an affordable way to bring life to your garden. Our Lawn in Order team can help you choose the best perennials for your specific space.
Mulch
Mulch not only makes your garden look neat and tidy but also helps retain moisture and prevent weed growth. The most affordable mulch is pine straw.
Create a Focal Point
Adding a focal point to your garden can make a big impact. It could be a statue, a birdbath, or a unique plant. Look for affordable options at flea markets, garage sales, or online marketplaces.
Incorporate Edible Plants
If you are investing in more plants, why not make them plants that you can eat. Not only are edible plants a great addition to your landscape, but they can also save you money on groceries. Consider planting herbs, vegetables, or fruit trees.
Use Lighting
Adding outdoor lighting can add ambiance to your landscape and extend the time you can spend outdoors. Solar-powered lights are an affordable option that requires no wiring.
Create a Sitting Area
A sitting area can be a great addition to your landscape. It could be as simple as a couple of chairs and a small table. Look for affordable outdoor furniture options at discount stores or repurpose old furniture from your home.
Consider a Water Feature
Never underestimate the power of water when it comes to the beauty and ambiance of your backyard. A simple water feature like a small fountain or pond can add a calming element to your landscape without depleting your wallet.
Add a Few Stepping Stones
A paver patio can be pricey. However, you can still enjoy the look and functionality of natural stone by just using a few pavers to create a small walkway or stepping stones in your garden.
