Be creative with the pathways!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Stepping stones that pave the way to your house are a perfect way to welcome your guest. You can either use bricks, stones or marble tiles as stepping stones to your house. If you are more creative, you can design different shapes of stepping stones and hand paint them. Create a stunning walkway to the front gate of your house. Craft a lady bug or a frog out of a cut-out piece of log and use your wild imagination to have pavers that add an element of style and creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rockery, anyone?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Create a simple yet stunning rock garden <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Looking for the perfect landscaping solution for your front yard? Well, a small rock garden can give the much-needed oomph to your house\u2019s entryway. You don\u2019t need to own a lavish garden to use your green thumb. A little creativity and some planning can go a long way in creating the perfect rock garden<\/a> for your front porch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mark a rectangle piece of land. Use your imagination to create flower beds along the four sides of the rectangle. You can plant seasonal flowers like petunias, asters and phlox. If you are looking for year-round greenery, then go for hardy plants like aloe vera, hibiscus, palm trees and bougainvillea. In the reserved rectangle piece of land, leave out empty spaces where you will plant some seasonal flowers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The rest of the land can be filled with some white marble chips and big rocks and boulders. If you have a few trees in your front yard like cheekoo or moringa trees, you can hang some tyres with flowers planted in them from the tree\u2019s branches, which will give a welcoming look to your house. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Raised plant beds<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"Multi-level](\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/image-261219-d-1-1024x640.jpg\")
Create raised plant beds to add the wow factor to your exterior<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n One of the best ideas for your front yard is to have multi-level landscaping. Even if you have a small entrance area, it can add value to your home\u2019s curb appeal by simply using plant beds in a step-wise landscaping design. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Towards the left and right side of your house, create raised plant beds in a step-wise manner. It gives an elevated look to your house and blooming flowers in each flower bed amp up the overall look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A gurgling fountain, maybe?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"Make](\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/image-2120-b-1024x640.jpg\")
A fountain in your front yard will enhance the curb appeal<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Having a water feature on your entrance will surely leave your guests awe-struck. It adds a bit of visual appeal to your front yard. Imagine the tranquil sounds of a bubbling fountain cascading on the classic grey tiered fountain. If you have a paved front yard, you can make the fountain the main focal point. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Place some seasonal flowers in potted plants around the fountain. If you have enough space, you can even have a small pond in your yard. You can add some lotus flowers, goldfish and even a fountain inside the pond that would be a major attraction in your front yard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Minimalism is the new trend<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"A](\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/image-261219-e-1024x640.jpg\")
Go simple and modern with your front yard designs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Instead of the old concrete driveway, go with the contemporary pattern of large concrete slabs with small white pebbles glued in between the slabs. Use solar lights on both sides of the entryway so that the pathway glows at night. This is a simple yet elegant minimalist idea for your front yard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another minimalist and contemporary design idea could be to have a bird feeder in the front yard and flower-lined beds on both sides of the driveway to put your focus only on the flower beds. If you have enough room to design a spectacular front yard landscape, then go for dwarf-sized trees like bougainvillea of different shades and line them up on your front yard. They give a vibrant look to your entrance without much effort. The trick is to keep trimming them and keep them in proper shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Easy-to-maintain front yard<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A low-maintenance front yard can be a blessing. Try placing the artificial turf if you have enough space for a front garden as it will help cut down the need to regularly water the grass. Use hardy and low-maintenance plants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For instance, an aloe vera or cactus plant also add value to your entrance. There are beautiful colourful flowers when these plants are in full bloom. This can add to your front yard decor without putting a dent in your wallet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Choose the right plant for your front yard<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
What purpose do you wish to achieve for your front yard? Do you want more privacy? Are you looking for ways to increase the curb appeal? Do you want to add more colour or highlight one key feature in your front yard? If you know exactly what you want out of your front yard, you would be able to design the front yard landscape accordingly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For instance, a beautiful hedge around your front yard will not only provide complete privacy, but will also enhance your curb appeal. If you are looking to give a more vibrant look to your entrance, then try planting succulents and seasonal flowers or ornamental grass to increase the curb appeal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you want to keep it simple yet appealing for your guests, have a stately plant in your front yard. Hang some orchids and a bird feeder from the branches of the tree. Let the tree stand tall in the front yard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A trellis looks best<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"Trellis](\"https:\/\/www.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/image-261219-b-1024x640.jpg\")
A trellis acts as a perfect privacy screen for your house<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Spruce up your front yard by placing a trellis. It not only protects you from the spying eyes of your nosy neighbour but also contributes to the design element of your front yard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can easily help a climber like Almanda, Orange shower or Banisteria to find their way up on a trellis. These creepers look best when they are in full bloom \u2013 adding colour and vibrancy to your outdoor setup. Trellis also works best for people owning smaller residential units. Setting up a trellis is quite cost-effective, too. Easy-to-maintain and low-budgeted trellis can equally contribute to your small front yard and yank up its curb appeal in no time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
