If you’re a new homeowner or even looking to put your current property on the market, creating a strong first impression is essential, and that all begins with landscaping. So, as you start writing that home improvement list, don’t forget to add this collection of foliage, blooms, and shrubs!
Boxwoods
While this might not be the burst of color you’re hoping will draw attention to your property, Boxwoods are foundation plants that work perfectly as a starting point. These plants will give structure to your garden and can even create a border for your yard.
Hostas
Do your trees have pesky bare spots near their roots that you just can’t seem to cover? Then Hostas are the plant for you. These shade-loving plants fit perfectly around tree roots and will immediately spruce up your garden. Instead of focusing on their blooms, take pride in the leaves and choose from a variety of greens, grays, blues, and yellow golds to fit your garden’s aesthetic.
Roses
When blooming, these stunning flowers can brighten up your porch, garden, and yard and easily draw the attention of passersby. However, roses are known to be more difficult to maintain with constant pruning, fertilization, and bug spraying needs. That’s why it’s important to do your research on low-maintenance roses such as Smaller Drift Roses.
Hydrangeas
Conversely to the common rose, Hydrangeas are the ultimate low-maintenance plants. Easy to grow with little care and magnificent blooms, these flowering shrubs will instantly improve your home’s curb appeal. Keep in mind that these plants love to spread and grow to plan out your garden accordingly.
