We take great pride in turning outdoor spaces into beautiful, functional landscapes. This recent project showcases the power of thoughtful design and plant selection in refreshing a backyard.
Before: A Space with Untapped Potential
The original landscape featured minimal planting, exposed soil, and an overall lack of structure. While the area offered natural privacy thanks to surrounding trees, it lacked visual appeal and cohesive design elements. The existing vine work near the shed showed early promise but needed support and refinement.
After: A Refreshing and Welcoming Retreat
Through strategic planning and careful plant selection, the backyard was transformed into a lush, layered retreat. We began by redefining the planting beds and enriching the soil. A focal tree was added to introduce vertical interest and vibrant foliage. Ground covers such as dwarf grass and plants now create a soft, cohesive border that adds texture and contrast.
We enhanced the area around the shed with additional plantings and a large decorative planter to introduce height and charm. Vines were gently guided along the wall to frame the structure naturally. Along the back fence, we installed a variety of shade-tolerant plants to create depth and continuity.
This project beautifully illustrates how even a modest backyard can be transformed into a serene and attractive environment with professional landscape design. From Spacious to Serene. By combining structure with natural elements, we’ve created a space that the homeowners can enjoy for years to come. If you’re considering a transformation for your own outdoor space, we’d be honored to help bring your vision to life.
