Tips and Hacks on Improving the Aesthetic Appeal of Your Landscaping and Outdoor Area

05 August 2021

Every home property is different, and each homeowner has specific ideas and visions for creating an attractive and enjoyable outdoor living environment. Tips and additions from top-rated landscaping professionals for enhancing your outdoor living spaces while boosting your home’s curb appeal significantly include the following:

Add a Lush Natural Turf

If you need a fast, reliable transformation of home lawn areas that are overgrown with weeds, plush green natural turf can be laid over newly leveled top soil to initiate the rapid growth of luxurious green grass. Within one day’s time, your weed patch will virtually disappear, replaced by the natural beauty of a revitalized green lawn. After two to four weeks, your lush, verdant grass will need only minimal watering to maintain. Best natural turf varieties include Sir Walter and Kings Pride soft-leaf Buffalo, Kikuyu and fine-leaf couch. For best results, your natural turf should be laid from early spring to early autumn.

Try Out a Durable Artificial Turf

Synthetic (artificial) turf requires little maintenance and will enable you to live amid the lush beauty of real-looking green lawns throughout the year. Top quality, low maintenance choices in attractive and practical artificial turf are from 20 mm. low-pile, which is ideal for balconies, golf greens and terrace turf, to 35 to 40 mm. tri-colour pile for replacing (and closely resembling) natural turf. Never again will you have need of a watering hose, sprinklers or a lawn mower to maintain glorious green lawns surrounding your home.

Install Screens and Espalier

Durable and decorative screens can add elegant, rustic or sleek modern elements of decor to your home’s outside living spaces and gardens. These appealing screens can also have convenient practical uses. They can provide privacy or hide water pipes, hot water units, worn fencing or storage areas. Attractive screens are also helpful for separating gardens and outdoor entertainment spaces from children’s play areas and equipment. Outdoor screens are available in timber, bamboo, aluminium slat, rendered blue board or laser cut panels.

Beautiful espalier space dividers can be created by placing climbing plants and vines to grow through taunt wiring attached to fence posts or latticework designs made of timber, metal or composite materials. Ideal plants and vines to include are grape vines, Wisteria and Chinese star jasmine.
