The coming of a new year should be the perfect time to make a few upgrades to your current landscape. In fact, 2023 is starting to look like one for the books in terms of landscape design trends. The premier outdoor living contractors in the area, Backyard Reflections, shares some of the excellent landscaping trends you’ll be seeing more of next year:
1. Garden of Eden
This particular design trend is all about nurturing nature by integrating plants that attract birds and pollinators, allowing for a wild, active, and thriving outdoor space. To get started on your Garden of Eden, try mixing edible plants with the rest of your landscape instead of limiting them to a raised bed. You can also weave herbs, trees, and shrubs together in the space, making sure to take soil health into account by using organic products.
2. Greek-Inspired
If you’ve always dreamed of a garden straight out of Greek mythology, then you’ll definitely love this landscaping trend. It puts emphasis on romantic beauty, which may be achieved by adding statues, stone walls, and archways to your outdoor space. You should also try using plants with thick foliage to create shaded seating areas, and incorporate hardy or water-wise plants like boxwood and roses, succulents, agapanthus, and cyclamen. And in order to get the most out of your Greek-inspired garden even at nighttime, you should consider a few creative but efficient lighting design landscape options.
3. Backyard Vacation
It would be great to travel to other places to relax, but if that’s not in the cards for you right now, you always have the option to create your own ‘vacation spot’ in the backyard. To better inspire that nostalgic feeling of being on vacation, add higher quality furnishings to your outdoor space. This means water features, elaborate firepits, pizza ovens, outdoor bars and kitchens, and pools. As for the more natural aspects of the space, go for plants with varying ombre shades, texture foliage, and tropicals.
