3 Easy Ways to Add Color to Your Landscaping

1. Bold Flower Choices

Flowers in vivid colors will bring your yard to life. Annuals, perennials, and flowering trees and shrubs add variation to your landscaping year-round. You can choose blooms in several colors, such as bold red geraniums and vibrant yellow daisies, or focus on one hue in a range of shades, such as pale lilacs and dark purple pansies and salvia. Mix and match your choices to create a spectrum that is sure to dazzle.


2. Vibrant Mulch

Mulch doesn’t have to be brown — you can use a variety of colors to accent flowerbeds, trees, and your house’s exterior. Use shredded bark or stones in shades like red, yellow, green, and blue to give your landscaping the visual boost it needs.


3. Colored Lights

One of the simplest ways to perk up your landscaping is to add colored lighting. Whether you install spotlights, pathway illumination, or strands of bulbs on trees, you can highlight elements of your yard at night. Choose colors that make plants and structures like retaining walls and water features stand out and accentuate the palette of your house.
