Spring Has Sprung: Time to Reimagine Outdoor Spaces

There's a huge sense of relief that comes with the first warm breezes of spring. Winter along the Main Line of Philadelphia can be long, but the days are starting to stretch a bit longer, the air feels softer, and the urge to spend time outdoors is irresistible.

Spring is a season of fresh beginnings and renewed energy. It’s a great season to enjoy your outdoor living spaces and make the most of the warmer weather.

After a long winter, Spring is an ideal time to consider how you landscape can provide not just beautiful retreat spaces from the day to day busyness, but also welcoming habitats for wildlife.

Seeing hummingbirds visiting Coral Honeysuckle outside your window while making coffee in the morning is an awesome way to start your day.

Monarchs, Swallowtails and Fritillary butterflies stopping by to feed on Milkweed, Monarda and Phlox brings a burst of activity to the perennial garden.

Imagine stepping outside to a vibrant, living landscape where the buzz of bees and the flutter of wings add life to your outdoor gatherings. Landscaping with native plants can combine aesthetic appeal with designed spaces where nature and people can flourish.

Now is the time to embrace the season and reimagine what your outdoor spaces can be. With a little planning and the right plant choices, you can enjoy a thriving garden that welcomes both guests and wildlife alike.

If you’ve been looking at your landscape and thinking it could do more, let this spring be the start of something beautiful. Your future self will thank you.
