Local Landscape Pros Offer Customized Service
For many homeowners, landlords, investors in real estate and people who own second homes, professional landscaping is a way to increase the value of their property and it helps them get the most of their real estate assets.
While the total landscape design is important, selecting the right plants to be the focal point of the design and turn the heads of anyone who visits is key to crafting the ideal outdoor space. These show stopping plants must be chosen with care and landscaped correctly to provide the most value to the property.
As one of the area’s leading landscape providers, our company is proud to work with owners of many different types of properties to help them look their best. In this article, we’ll discuss how to pick the perfect showpieces for your landscape design.
Know Your Property
Fort Myers attracts visitors from all over the world, in part because of the natural character and history our area offers. A great deal of this charm is rooted in our coastal environment and the long standing structures which adorn our streets. The first step in selecting the right plants for your landscape design is to ensure they fit in with the style of your home, the characteristics of your area and the feel of Southwest Florida. If you have a historic home, choosing traditional landscaping will suit it best. If you’re on the water, a more tropical feel might be the way to go. In any case, selecting plants to compliment your property should be the goal.
Feature Anchor Plants Prominently
Many people assume landscaping only has to do with trees, plants and shrubs, but a full landscape design incorporates hardscapes, features and structures which all work together to create an ideal outdoor environment. If you have show stopping plants, make sure they’re featured and noticeable. This can mean creating walking paths to these plants, landscaping around them, adding features like fountains or pergolas or other creative ways to make them stand out.
Choose Local Plants
We are big proponents of choosing local plants when possible, and it’s advantageous for many reasons. Our area features many beautiful trees, shrubs and flowering plants, so using them as part of your design helps the property feel more natural. In addition, local plants will likely hold up better to the area’s unique climate and salty soil.
