A large yard is often a desirable feature for a home, and a beautifully landscaped lawn can add to the overall appeal and value of your property. Less functional than a side or back yard, the front yard is part of the overall first impression of a property, and a beautiful home demands a beautiful yard.

Backyards are primarily the functional part of a lawn. This is where family gatherings, pool parties, social events, and weekend barbecues take place.
The side yard is usually neglected when it comes to landscape design, but you can focus on this part of your yard and add to your home’s visual appeal and property value with minimal effort and expense.
Create a functional side yard by installing a vegetable or herb garden or an outdoor lounge area, or add attractive living walls or vertical gardens beside your house.
You can create a dramatic entrance to your backyard with creative landscaping, or add trees, shrubs, and other plants that provide you with stunning views from the side windows of your house.

Thanks for explaining why your side yard typically gets neglected when it comes to landscape design. I want to turn mine into a beautiful walkway surrounded my plants. I want it to really be the focal point for my yard.
