Adding Seasonal Color To Your Landscape

The right combination of plants, trees and shrubs can turn an otherwise boring yard into a flourishing autumn garden that features color, texture and dimension. 

Our seasonal landscaping services include adding colorful plants and annual flowers to beds and containers in your yard, porches, patios and other outdoor areas.

Whether you just want to add some splashes of color as the seasons change or need your outdoor living spaces to look their best for guests as we enter the height of outdoor entertaining season in New Orleans. 

Every garden should include a wide variety of plants to ensure that there is something blooming and providing visual inspiration year round. In Fall, there are a select few plants that flower and several shrubs and trees that provide both color and interesting foliage.

Marigolds, salvia and silver dusters, and snapdragons are three annuals that provide plenty of color and are capable of surviving and blooming well into autumn. If your yard has extensive garden beds, these three annuals are best used in abundance together, in rows or large groupings.

Another way to add them to your garden for a vibrant fall showing is in the form of a border. Because the annuals do not grow very tall, and their traditional fall colored blooms, an annual border will come across very naturally. 

Other fall flowering favorites include several varieties of mums and asters. Both of these are widely used in fall gardens. Mums and asters tend to grow a little bushier than most annuals, so they are best planted in clusters to fill in a large space, or individually placed between other landscaping features.

LGD Lawn and Landscape provides seasonal color enhancements that keep your landscape in constant bloom. We will work with you to use the many flower and plant choices Fall weather in New Orleans offers to transform your yard, garden, and various planters to create a welcoming and picturesque environment throughout the holiday season.
