How to Make Your Landscaping Look Lavish

Lavish landscaping is accomplished by doing the most you can with the space you have. From small to large outdoor spaces, a scene of luxury is possible. Utah landscaping options can include rich green shrubs and trees as well as seasonal outdoor plants that have a different personality from Summer, Fall, Spring, and Winter. If you are someone who wants to experience an elevated backyard, below are ways to make your landscaping look lavish regardless of the size.

 Add Color 

From Aspen trees that change in the fall to cherry blossoms in the spring, there are ways to add layers of color to your backyard through planters. Intimidated by flowers? Don’t be! Open Range offers maintenance so your landscaping looks top-notch. Additional landscape designs add color by including lighting, water features, and even hardscaping. In the winter, warm up the view of your backyard with lights surrounding the perimeter of your space. Or, the glow of a spa.



 

 Consider a Fire Feature

To add a rich element to your outdoor space, consider a fire feature. It is one of our favorite backyard designs to add when gatherings are a top priority. There are endless landscape architectural designs that can bring a lavish vision to life. Pair your fire feature with comfortable outdoor chairs and blankets paired with a wall of firewood. 

Lush Planting 

Layers of greenery from mosses to vines can create an American take on the traditional English countryside. Lush planting can also include layers of large evergreens and pines. There are a handful of evergreen trees and shrub types that can have low maintenance and low needle shedding. They also work great in Utah’s climate with the changing four seasons.

Outdoor Gazebos

Outdoor gazebos don’t fall short when it comes to creating a luxurious space. A gazebo offers a section in your backyard where you can completely relax and reprieve. A covered top can allow for a space to unwind and watch the rain fall on warm summer nights. The landscape design opportunities can be completely custom to you, including the lighting features. If you want to see this come to life before building, Open Range offers 3-D rendering to give you a preview of the future.
