It's the perfect time to get outdoors!
Whether
you have a huge yard or a small patio, you can make a whole new living space
out of your outdoor area. By placing comfortable furniture and flowering
plants into pots around the space, you can add to your living space and move
outdoors.
- The outdoor living boom has moved from being ‘just a
trend’ to a lifestyle! People are transforming their backyards into
"specialty" rooms with kitchens, bars, and entertainment
centers. An interesting twist on garden design; many homeowners are
developing garden areas to reflect their favorite vacation destination!
A recent Better Homes and Gardens survey confirms this
trend. The survey says that building a major garden or landscaping project
is the second most popular home improvement choice.
-
- Flowers, shrubs and trees are being used as accents, room
dividers, carpets and curtains. Homeowner's can find
outdoor end tables, all-weather floor lamps, waterproof art and even
affordable entertainment sets along with the big and bold flowers and
plants. Island colors are coming on strong for 2007 garden palettes. Some
are referring to this as the ‘eco-chic’ movement. The fashionable
gardens in 2007 will present a sleek, contemporary look, with bold lines,
well-defined angles and an emphasis on colorful, exotic foliage and
flowers, and the newest trend; outdoor art!

- Super-size plants, including extra-large perennials and
gigantic containers spilling over with jewel-toned blooms are in. Native,
sustainable plants remain popular, too. Integrating ornamental and edible
plants will be huge this season. People don’t want just to work in their
gardens. They also want their gardens to work for them.
Evening use has also become more important. Busy lives result in limited
daylight hours for leisure. Outdoor lamps in a variety of shapes, sizes
and power supplies are strong considerations. Here is a selection of
plants that carry special after-dark appeal:
-
Moonflowers with their
elegant fragrance and large, beautiful nighttime blooms
-
Feathery Artemisia
‘Powis Castle’
-
Huge, Heart-shape leafed, Elephant Ears
-
Rapier-like Astelia
Chathamica
-
Exotic shades of fragrant
roses
One of the wonderful things about arranging an outdoor living space is:
the furniture doesn't have to cost a lot and you don't need to worry about
making an investment into the pieces. Find something colorful or casual,
consider adding cushions for more color, then get out the iced-tea. Summer is here and you won't want to miss a minute!

front door, include a fresh coat of paint, a new doorbell, or a cheery pot
