There are many benefits that come with owning your own home. One of them is backyard landscaping. This is a way to create a unique area that you and your family can enjoy. Backyard landscaping often involves some initial intense labor, but the effects are worth the effort.


It is important when starting landscaping projects to plan how much time you want to invest to maintain the look of the project. When we first moved to our home we loved the backyard. The previous owner had planted a huge variety of perennials in the backyard as well as along the side of the house. The flowers added color for each season, however keeping the weeds under control was very time consuming. After two seasons we decided that the backyard landscaping needed to be less time consuming. The previous owner had been a teacher, with the entire summer off. This allowed her ample time to work in the flower gardens. We both work full time so the weeds were always getting away from us. The backyard landscaping no longer looked as beautiful as when we moved in.

There were several people that we knew that wanted the perennials. We dug them out and shared them with others for their backyard landscaping. We then laid down heavy black plastic to prevent weeds from growing up in the area. We covered the area with washed river rocks that we had delivered from the local nursery. We placed landscaping tiles around the rocks to hold them in place. To finish our backyard landscaping project we placed large pots of colorful annuals and a park bench to sit on. We find that we enjoy the time sitting on the park bench enjoying our backyard landscaping.

One of the neighbors commented on how neat the backyard appears now. And we find that we spend more time in the space because of the bench. I told my husband that I prefer sitting on the bench watching the birds on the feeders rather than pulling weeds.

Backyard landscaping should enhance the enjoyment of owning your own home. It should not be so time consuming that it ads stress on your precious time. By keeping the backyard landscaping simple you can have a unique area and also have the time to enjoy it. We will be able to add features to our backyard as time goes by. We started with a basic design that we can expand as time, energy and finances allows. We do not like clutter. By keeping things simple the area is easy to mow around, so this also saves time that is spent to maintain the look of the area.
