10 Budget Friendly Landscaping Ideas
There is no need to spend all your hard-earned money on enhanced curb appeal. Beautiful landscapes might look expensive; however, an eye-catching yard can be affordable, too.
-
Build A Walkway
Pavers or steppingstones make perfect inexpensive walkways. They catch the eyes to areas of your yard you want to display, and they invite your guests to do some exploring. A walkway also helps keep guests from walking on your grass and offers a sense of direction from one part of your yard to another.
-
Save With Perennials
Plant perennials, that return with appealing color every growing season. This is going to save you money and gardening time since you won’t be purchasing and planting new plants each year.

Scatter Some Mulch
Mulch is just what your yard needs to make your flower beds stand above the rest. It adds textured ground cover to your flower beds and aids in keeping out those bothersome weeds that keep stealing the spotlight.

Plant Flowers Around Your Mailbox
When giving directions to your home, it would be a nice feeling to say, “Mine is the one with the pretty mailbox.” Nobody is going to be able to miss your front yard when surrounding your mailbox with a flower bed or a little trellis with self-climbers such as ivy or bougainvillea.
