Upgrading your landscape beds is a great way to increase the curb appeal of your property in Alabama or Tennessee. They are focal points that need to be maintained regularly to keep them looking their best. If you want to give your landscape beds a much-needed refresh, there are four things you can do. You can remove dead plants and replace them with fresh ones to add pops of color and new life. You should also eliminate any weeds that can detract from your landscape beds' aesthetic appeal and affect the health of your plants. You can also install fresh mulch to keep them looking neat and pristine. Lastly, you can add edging to showcase the shape of your landscape beds and give them a more refined aesthetic!


1. Remove dead plants and add fresh, new ones.

If you want to upgrade the appearance of your landscape beds, you first need to eliminate anything that can hinder it, like dead plants. Dead plants look unattractive, and they can make your landscape beds appear messy and unkempt. By removing dead plants, you're not only improving the beauty of your landscape beds but also ensuring your healthy ones can maximize available nutrients. After getting rid of them, it's time to replace them with fresh, new plantings! You can choose to add colorful ones to make your landscape beds more lively and vibrant. If you want plants that don't require too much maintenance, you can go for native options that thrive in your area's environment.

Camellias, azaleas, hydrangeas, and viburnums are excellent plant choices that you can add to your landscape beds!

2. Get rid of invasive and unappealing weeds.

The next thing you can do to improve the appearance of your landscape beds is to eliminate the weeds. Weeds are invasive and unappealing, not to mention harmful to your plants because they will steal nutrients and other essential resources from them. Weeds are also unwanted clutter and will detract from the visual appeal of your landscape beds. By removing them, you can ensure they look neat and your plants stay healthy.


3. Add fresh mulch to your landscape beds.

An effective way to boost your property's curb appeal is to add fresh mulch to your landscape beds! Mulch can spruce up your landscape beds' aesthetics by covering the bare soil, which gives them a finishing touch and highlights the vibrant colors of your plants. What's more, mulch helps retain moisture, suppresses weed growth, and regulates the soil temperature to keep your plants healthy.


4. Redefine your landscape beds and add edging.

The final step you can take to upgrade your landscape beds is to redefine their shape by adding edging. Edging your landscape beds will refine the aesthetic of your property. It frames your landscape beds by creating a nice, crisp border that separates them from your lawn. Edging will also ensure any weeds on your lawn don't spread to your landscape beds and ruin their appearance. Bricks and rocks are excellent edging materials that you can choose from, as they offer a timeless beauty that can make your landscape beds look stunning for years to come!
