4 Ways To Take Your Summer Landscaping to The Next Level

Let’s face it — there’s nothing quite like summer in Seymour, Connecticut! From the annual summer concert series to the beautiful beaches nearby, there’s something for everyone to enjoy during the warmest months out of the year. 

However, if one item on your summer “to-do” list is to transform your landscape, the team at Damstrong is here to share a few helpful tips to take into consideration!

Here Are 4 Simple Summer Landscaping Tips to Know

1. Fill Your Flower Beds with Mulch

Are you looking to freshen up your flower beds this summer? If so, now is the perfect time to sprinkle some mulch in them! The reason why mulch is the ideal material to use is that:

• It helps plants retain moisture
• It reduces the growth of weeds
• It keeps the soil’s temperature consistent 

Additionally, mulch also helps heighten the visual appeal of flower beds — since it comes in an array of colors and textures to be the perfect fit for any home.

2. Create a Playground with Rubber Mulch

Are you thinking about creating a playground for the kids? It’s possible thanks to rubber mulch! Unlike traditional wood chips that have been used for years, rubber mulch is a much safer alternative (i.e., the rubber mulch doesn’t have jagged edges). Plus, rubber mulch comes in various traditional colors and fun colors — such as hues of bright blue and green.

3. Build Walkways with Gravel

Are you not sold on the idea of having pavement for a walkway on your property? Not a problem — consider using crushed gravel instead! Gravel is the perfect way to not only add visual appeal and texture to your property but also make for quick and easy drainage, too!

4. Add Some Boulders for Curb Appeal

Do you think your property could benefit from a decorative boulder or two? With the help of a wheel loader, you can make this happen! Whether you place two boulders at the front of an entrance or one as the focal point of a garden or walkway, the possibilities are endless (and stunning)!
