A stunning garden begins with understanding the local climate and seasonal changes. At Dahl’s Landscape & Design, we leverage our deep knowledge of regional weather patterns to select plants that will flourish in every season. This strategic selection is crucial for ensuring that your garden remains vibrant and healthy regardless of the time of year.
The foundation of a year-round garden is selecting the right mix of plants. Perennials are an excellent choice as they return year after year without replanting, providing continuity in your garden. Consider incorporating evergreen trees and shrubs, as they retain their foliage throughout winter, offering color and structure even when other plants are dormant. We also recommend ornamental grasses for their movement and texture, which can add drama to your garden during the winter months.
Spring is the season of renewal, and it’s essential to plan your garden to burst forth with color and life. Early blossoming bulbs such as tulips and daffodils can be planted in advance to ensure a vibrant display when the temperatures start to rise. Dahl’s team can help you incorporate such lively elements, creating focal points that captivate and draw interest.
As summer approaches, your garden should transition to lush, full greenery supplemented by flowering perennials. Consider employing a variety of colors and textures that complement each other and thrive in the summer heat. Hydrangeas and roses are popular for their stunning blooms and can be strategically placed for a beautiful summer show.
Autumn doesn’t have to mean the end of your garden’s beauty. By selecting plants that showcase autumnal colors, like maples, sumac, and asters, you can extend the vibrancy of your garden into the cooler months. At Dahl’s Landscape & Design, we emphasize vertical planting, clustering, and the use of fall-blooming plants to maintain visual interest as leaves begin to change color.
Winter is often overlooked in garden planning, yet it offers an opportunity to highlight the architectural elements of your landscape. Consider including structures such as pergolas and stone features that stand out against the stark winter backdrop. Dahl’s expert team can help you design hardscape elements that enhance winter garden aesthetics, adding character and depth.
Regular maintenance is vital for sustaining your garden throughout the year. This includes seasonal pruning, mulching, and fertilizing to encourage plant health and growth. Dahl’s Landscape & Design provides comprehensive maintenance services to keep your garden in peak condition, allowing you to enjoy its beauty without the hassle.
