Many people in the Newton area first got into gardening during the pandemic. Now with a couple of years experience under their belts, and new confidence in their green thumbs, local homeowners are getting more adventurous with their gardening. With that in mind, we’re sharing information on what appear to be 2023’s top emerging garden trends.
#1: Welcome to the Garden of Eden
If you’d like to have your lawn be a vibrant oasis of life, the Garden of Eden trend is for you. This landscaping approach includes a little bit of everything, from the familiar flowers and veggies to herbs and plants chosen specifically to attract pollinators – birds, bees, and butterflies.
Pro tip: Soil nutrition is the key to a successful Garden of Eden. Make sure to have your Newton lawn fertilization service treat your lawn in the spring, mid-summer and fall for best results.
#2: Upscale Relaxation: Space To Unwind
Would you like to have a space in your lawn to just sit down and kick back? The Upscale Relaxation landscape includes simple, semi-secluded spaces furnished with elegant lawn furniture. Plantings tend to be simpler, with foliage beds designed for color and texture strategically placed around the landscape.
#3: Hygge Happiness: Sweet Cozy Comfort
Inspired by life in Scandanvia, this landscape trim combines warm natural elements – think wood, stone, and ceramic planters in black and white – with sprawling, cascading florals in a variety of colors and textures. If space allows, integrate seating so one can curl up alone with a good book, or in pairs to enjoy the outdoors together.
Don’t be afraid to mix and match trends. Landscape design is such an individual form of self-expression. Part of the fun of the process is trying out different ideas to see how you like them in your lawn. If something makes you happy, keep it. And if not, this is an opportunity to make it even better.
