Windows & siding being replaced. Need landscaping ideas.
Comments (4)Glad to see you intend to loose the shutters. I like you vision a lot, but I would make the door by the garage white rather than red. Reserve red for the front door. Good job!...See MoreNeed landscape ideas
Comments (8)Ditto!! Beautiful home and nice space for developing a lovely garden. Are shrubs what you really want? If so, there is no reason to wait until fall to plant. If you planted perennials and accented with annuals, that would probably be easiest. There are many plants that could grow well in the sun conditions you describe. If you want flowers, day lilies have a huge variety of colors and blooms.....and of course they return year after year. I think the bed near the door filled with lilies would be lovely. In shadier parts of your yard, planting hostas, Heucheras, grasses, ferns, bleeding hearts, hellebores, to name a few would give a nice presentation. If possible, I recommend going to some garden centers or botanical gardens. Walk through and see what you like. Chances are, if the garden is in your area, the plants displayed will grow well in your garden. Good luck! See what others think too, I am not a landscaper, but a determined gardener!! :-D debra...See MoreI need landscaping ideas for my big front yard
Comments (6)What are the trees that you have there? Do you want something that will eventually give you privacy, such as evergreen trees or a tall hedge on one or both sides? Do any of your neighbours have plantings that you admire? It can get pricey to landscape a large area - how big is the area we are looking at?...See MoreBetter picture need landscaping idea
Comments (7)Best to visit a local nursery for a list of plants that thrive in your locale.Take photos with you so they can suggest appropriately for your home and land. They may have a pro on staff to draw up a planting plan that you can install yourself over time....See MoreYardvaark
