Enhancing your garden's curb appeal can be both rewarding and straightforward with the right approach. Whether you're looking to refine your garden beds, tackle tree pruning, or illuminate your outdoor space, these tips will guide you through achieving a polished, professional look for your home.
1. Perfecting Garden Bed Edges
Creating clean and well-defined garden bed edges is crucial for a neat appearance. To begin, use a hose or string to outline your garden bed layout. The flexibility of a hose allows you to shape curves, while string is ideal for straight lines. Secure the string with stakes and use spray paint to mark your design on the ground.
Once your layout is marked, start by removing mulch from the edges to expose the soil.
Use an edger tool to cut a vertical edge about four inches deep. Then, taper the garden bed at a 45-degree angle to create a clean separation between the garden bed and lawn.
