Gardening is something not everyone enjoys doing, let alone landscaping your property. From planning, planting, the hours you have spent outside, the sun, and the moments you have to dig just to encounter an earthworm are too much.

To add that curb appeal to your home, you can always hire a company that offers professional landscaping, but that is too expensive. There is always a DIY landscaping tutorials and tons of designs, layout and ideas are available on the internet.

We all know that landscaping plays an essential role when selling your home. A home with a poor landscape can significantly lower the value of a property. However, there is a difference with a beautifully landscaped property and a jungle. 

A landscaping done right can add value to your home, but if done poorly, it can significantly hurt the value of your home. Since spring is just around the corner and some may be planning on beautifying their front yard as a project, I decided to list 5 Landscaping Mistakes to Avoid this Spring.

Here is our list of 5 Landscaping Mistakes to Avoid this Spring.


1. Not Having A Plan of your own.


Not having a landscaping plan or if you are just copying what you saw on t.v. or the internet then it might turn out bad. Landscaping is a slow process, it requires a lot of planning, from the flowers, shrubs, where to plant the everything and the final look that you want for your front lawn.

Planting or designing the same plant in your property may end up dead after a few weeks or months and or it may look like jungle eventually. 

Visit http://www.thesensiblegardener.com and www.the-landscape-design-site.com. Read through the basics of landscaping and use it your guide.


2. Going big on designs and details.

I am being literal on the picture above, though, we have to admit that it is one awesome garden. However, if you are doing the landscaping yourself, start small. The ones that you see on t.v. or on the internet was done by professionals and they people working on that project.

You can always hire a professional which is expensive, but if this is a project that you would want to work on, start small to avoid over-doing it, you can save more time, and see the immediate result of your work. Here are some websites with easy and basic landscaping designs to help you start your project, visit diynetwork.com and www.bhg.com.
