Landscaping Mistake: Forgetting about outdoor lighting

Outdoor lighting is an integral part of landscaping that many people rarely take into consideration. Not only is it a practical element, but it also adds a touch of elegance to your landscape’s structure. It also lets you show off your gorgeous landscape at nighttime.

If you have entertainment areas, lighting will significantly boost the look of your entire landscape.

Landscaping Mistake: Worshiping Instagram and Pinterest

Don’t go overboard with likes and pins. While Pinterest and Instagram can be excellent sources of inspiration, those images have nothing to do with your home and climate. Choose plants according to your own space.
