Sellers: Your Front Yard Deserves a Spring Makeover
It may be a bit chilly yet to starting thinking of spring gardening, but it's high time to start planning a spring makeover of your front yard, especially if you're planning to list your home among Edina homes for sale or Detroit Lakes homes for sale. Start by walking around your property and assessing what needs to be done to boost your curb appeal. Keeping the grass mowed and the shrubs trimmed will help, but adding some color, taking out damaged plants and replacing them in bare spaces with healthy new specimens, and filling in the winter-ravaged ground cover if need be are three projects that can enhance your listed property's looks so potential buyers will stop and take a second look.
- Add Some Color
Planting annuals is an easy, no-brainer way to dress up your property and catch the eye of potential buyers. Perennials are great, but they take time to get established, so you may want to concentrate on bright annuals along sidewalks and in beds fronting the house to dress things up. Paint a picture in your mind with drifts of annuals such as dahlia, calla lilies, various kinds of daisies, salvia, pentas, nicotianas, and many more. Although annuals usually need to be replaced every year, it's worthwhile to plant these big swatches of color for an instant wow effect.
