What better way to bask in the sun and enjoy the weather than by finally working on your home’s landscaping! There are plenty of ways to spruce up the exterior of your home, but when doing that, you should be weary of what is hot and what is not. The last thing you want is to be the one house in the neighborhood that is behind on trends. No need to fear, however, as Atlantic Ridge Landscape is here to provide you with a few ideas to make your next project go as smoothly as possible. Here are three summer landscaping ideas to add to your home.
Fire Pits
There’s nothing worse than when everyone is enjoying themselves at a party and soon enough, the sun goes down. Instead of having to call it a night outside, light up the fire pit and let the good vibes continue. Not only does a fire pit supply you with ample lighting to see around you, it also can serve as a form of entertainment. Make some s’mores or sit around the flame to share stories. And for those pesky bugs, the fire will take care of them with ease.
Water Features
Think of a running creek. Or a small fountain bubbling. Now think of yourself sitting outdoors on a sunny day with those noises going through your head. Relaxing, right? Not all landscaping ideas need to be exciting, as water features will provide your home with a sense of serenity and style.
Sustainable Plants
With many homeowners shifting to a mindset of sustainability, a great way to take part in this is by choosing floral arrangements that can withstand droughts. If you live in an arid area, that does not mean you cannot enjoy the beauty of flowers, you just have to find the right ones. From petunias to lavender, these flowers will allow you to cut down on how much water you have to use.
