Outdoor Landscaping Ideas

As summer starts to heat up in Minnesota families, and friends gravitate to the outdoors to enjoy the weather and relax. Make the most of your yard and add to your outdoor living space with these landscaping ideas. 

Install Terracing Garden Beds

This is a great solution if you have a sloped yard. Add in one or more terraces filled with flowers or fruits and vegetables. Support the structure and add to the design with stone, wood, concrete block, or other materials. 

Add in Perennials

Planting perennial plants is a cost-friendly solution. Perennials offer beautiful blooms year after year and are a great starting point for any landscaping design.

Install a Fire Pit

A bonfire on a summer evening is a Minnesota staple. An outdoor fireplace or fire pit adds functionality and charm to your yard and provides light and warmth on a cool evening. Create a custom design from a multitude of material options to best suit your budget and lifestyle.

Add Hardscaping

Hardscape is a part of landscaping that is made from man-made materials or natural elements. Hardscape options include fencing, pergolas, patios, retaining walls, decks, and more! Adding in hardscaping can provide a decorative or functional focal point in your outdoor space.
