Lined Walkway
A garden doesn’t have to be a small circle in the corner of your front yard. It can be anywhere within the area that suits your tastes without compromising the look and feel gardens typically provide. This entails adding plants to the pathway and creating a garden-like setting with shrubs and trees on both sides.
You can grow flowers underneath the shrubs for an even better look. You can also add landscape lighting along the pathway, which can keep it well lit at night, allowing onlookers to take in some of the impressive front yard garden. You can also add some decorative stones as a finishing touch. Snow-white pebbles work particularly well for this purpose.
Cozy Flowerbeds
If you have fences around the house, add flowers on either side to give your front yard more curb appeal. This cottage-like style can include flowers that brighten the space as much as you want, or you can go with a more traditional and neutral color scheme. You can incorporate vases to hold some plants, setting them in between the flower gardens.
The profusion of plants gives a pleasant look and cozy feel. If there’s room near the fence in the yard, add a small bench where you and other family members or friends can enjoy a nice day reading, bird and people watching, or unwinding.
Water Features
A pond surrounded by plants is often a popular choice when sprucing up a front yard garden. An outdoor fountain may provide the calming object your garden is missing. It will offer soothing sounds and block outside noises that often cause distractions when you’re in the yard or on the porch relaxing.
Decorative Rock Garden
When giving your front yard garden some curb appeal, try to keep it well maintained and looking nice all year long, including in the fall and winter months. With a decorative rock garden featuring bright gold beach pebbles, soothing grey stones, or sleek polished black river rock, the stones never lose their appeal. The low maintenance of this option doesn’t take away from the creativity you can put into your garden.
The size and placement of the beach pebbles or stones is entirely up to you and based on the length and width of the front yard. Besides beach pebbles, you can add some ornamental grass or an evergreen shrub to spruce up the garden, especially if you love plants. The decorative rocks will bring out the texture and color of any plant added to the garden.
No matter what kind of landscaping project you’re planning, decorative rocks, stones, and beach pebbles can give it additional depth, character, and beauty.
