Are you looking to spruce up your fall curb appeal? Whether you plan to sell your home or wish to reside in your home for many years to come, curb appeal showcases property value and beauty. Spring, summer, fall, or winter, many proud homeowners adorn their landscape with festive decorations as the seasons change. Alternatively, homeowners may seek the assistance of a landscaping professional or landscape contractor to address their landscape design and have it complement each season. Whichever way you choose to transition your landscape design between seasons, here are a few fall curb appeal ideas!

Add outdoor lighting!  As our clocks fall back an hour, warm sunny days start to get shorter, and our cool fall nights begin to get longer. September is the perfect time to install outdoor lighting.  Fall and winter are known to bring the most amount of holidays and family gatherings. The most welcoming gesture a homeowner can offer their guests is an illuminated landscape. Your guests should feel that they can easily find your home and navigate safely to your front door. Outdoor lighting is a fantastic way to highlight fall décor, landscape designs, and the architecture of your home.  Outdoor lighting can also serve as an additional security feature. Onlookers with negative intentions will avoid a well-lit home. Ask your landscaping contractor which outdoor lighting solutions are best for your landscape. Landscaping professionals and landscaping contractors can find various outdoor lighting options here at FSI Landscape Supply!

Landscape edging is incorporated throughout the entire landscape to create separation and distinction between the lawn and other landscape elements. Courtyards, decks, garden beds, front porches, patios, shrubs, and trees will look more manicured and visually appealing. Although we are highlighting fall curb appeal ideas, landscape edging is not strictly for aesthetic reasons. It also has a functional purpose. To maintain the health of the lawn, preserve the original landscape design and keep weeds at bay, landscape edging is essential. Landscape edging creates a barrier. It will keep weeds, grass, or grass seeds from infiltrating other areas. At FSI Landscape Supply, we offer plastic and aluminum edging for both hardscape and softscape.

The fall season encourages homeowners to get creative, play with warm colours, and add the latest fall décor. At FSI Landscape Supply, we believe that less is more. With the help of your landscaping contractor, we recommend maintaining your landscape design and adding a few festive décor pieces to get into the fall spirit. However, by oversaturating your landscape with lawn ornaments and excessive décor, you might be taking away from the landscape’s natural beauty. Keep it simple! Switch out outdoor furniture or coordinate fall colours with outdoor textiles and rugs. Another helpful tip is to switch out your planters. Simply replacing planters with the appropriate seasonal arrangement can make quite a difference while maintaining a festive aesthetic. With a few simple touches, the landscape is immediately transformed and ready for the season.
