5 Ways to Improve Your Outdoor Space This Season
As the weather warms up, your yard becomes more than just part of your property — it becomes a place to relax, entertain, and enjoy the beauty of the season. Whether you're looking for a major transformation or simple upgrades, here are five effective ways to enhance your outdoor space this year:
1. Refresh Your Lawn
A lush, healthy lawn is the foundation of a great yard. Start with aeration and overseeding to promote growth, and follow up with regular mowing, edging, and fertilizing.
Pro Tip: Spring is the ideal time to treat bare spots and get ahead of weeds before they take over.

2. Add Mulch and Define Beds
Clean lines and fresh mulch go a long way. Redefining flower beds, tree rings, and garden edges instantly makes your yard look polished and cared-for.
Why it matters: Mulch not only improves curb appeal — it also helps retain moisture and suppress weeds.

3. Incorporate Seasonal Plantings
Adding pops of color with annuals, perennials, or flowering shrubs creates visual interest and brings new energy to your space.

5. Landscape Lighting for Evening Enjoyment
Don’t let the beauty fade when the sun goes down. Outdoor lighting highlights key features, adds safety, and extends the usability of your yard into the evening.
