FRANKLIN, Mass. - June 9, 2015 - PRLog -- Now that the spring is in full bloom and summer is just around the corner, more and more people will be noticing all of the lovely landscaped yards that have emerged. Have you ever wondered about what your yard says about you? Do you think that people have made assumptions about the inside of your home after seeing your yard? Perhaps they have, so the question is, does your yard emulate what's on the inside of your home? Here are some things to consider as you get ready to take prepare your yard for this summer!

Got Grass?

After the harsh winter, it may have been a challenge to turn that brown grass into a luscious, thick, green carpet. Unfortunately, your lawn is one of the first aspects of your home that people take into consideration. A dusty, dirt patch lawn doesn't reflect well on any home, which is why you want to take care of it as soon as possible. A little bit of seed and water should do the trick!

Create Color

Planting a variety of plants that bloom different colors can reflect a cheerful and fun perception of your home. If the inside of your home is full of warm, inviting colors, why not match it to the outside? Try a perennial hibiscus, purple wave petunia, zinnias, purple coneflowers or even sun flowers for a wave of color across your yard.

Avoid Excessive Ornaments

One or two lawn ornaments can be cute and add some character to your yard, but over decorating can create a tacky image to passerby. Too many lawn decorations can take away from the natural beauty that you have already created. Before you place a lawn ornament in your yard ask yourself why you're putting it there and if it serves a real purpose in your yard.

Light it Up

So you've got your yard essentials covered for the daytime, but what about the nighttime? Adding some outside lighting to your walkway or having lights that accentuate your blooming trees or flowers can create a lovely aura. Solar lighting is a great way to achieve some light on a budget. During the day the small lamps charge in the sun and then shine at night without any extra costs for you!


So, if you've been questioning the effectiveness of your yard, don't hesitate to give it an "audit" so you can see what you need to work on. As a homeowner, you'll want to reflect your home in the first thing that people see – your yard!
