FALL PLANNING FOR SPRING LANDSCAPING
Fall is a great time to plan for spring landscaping projects. Fall planning saves you time and money, and helps prevent headaches and frustration.
By contacting a landscape designer now, you will have the entire winter to work together on developing a plan.
Landscaping is an important investment in terms of the value of your home. You want your landscape work to be done well and for it to stand the test of time. Planning is critical to designing and creating the outdoor living spaces you desire. Creating a plan provides project continuity and will help you see the big picture. In this way you can prioritize your projects and implement the plan in strategic phases if necessary - as opposed to designing and working on your landscape in a piecemeal fashion.
Creating a landscape design in the fall can eliminate second guessing. You will know what you are going to get and when you are going to get it.
October - November: Schedule an appointment with a landscape designer. The earlier the better so your designer can view your property before it snows. This is the time to share your list of “wants” and “needs” (walkways, patios, stone walls, etc …) and your budget with your designer.
December - March: Now is the time to brainstorm. During these months you and your designer can develop a plan, exchange ideas and focus on the details. This allows for an evolving design process that will ultimately achieve your desired results. Once the plan is finalized, your landscape designer can secure any required permits so when the weather breaks the work can begin.
April - May: Breaking ground! When the crew arrives in April to begin work they will have the best selection of plants and materials available minimizing delays in the work. Having this head-start in the spring allows for the project to be completed sooner and maximizes the amount of time you will have to enjoy your new landscape in the summer.
Developing your plan in the fall with your landscape designer helps ensure a successful project. It will also build your excitement and anticipation for spring. When the warmer weather arrives, your yard will be ready to enjoy.
