New Year, New Landscape: 2024 Trends for Colorado Springs Homes

Hey Colorado Springs! Ready to shake off the winter dust and breathe some fresh life into your outdoor space? Buckle up, because 2024 is bursting with landscape trends that’ll turn your backyard into the envy of the neighborhood. Forget cookie-cutter yards, we’re talking unique, sustainable, and oh-so-inviting vibes that’ll have you practically living outdoors.

Trend #1: Sustainable Serenity:

Think beyond boring old turf! Xeriscaping is taking center stage, with drought-tolerant plants like agave, yucca, and ornamental grasses reigning supreme. Not only are they low-maintenance and water-wise, but they create a stunning desert-chic aesthetic that screams Colorado cool.

Trend #2: Fireside Feasting:

Who needs fancy restaurants when you’ve got a backyard oasis? Outdoor kitchens are on fire (not literally, unless you’re grilling!), with pizza ovens, built-in grills, and cozy seating becoming must-have elements. Picture this: crisp mountain air, crackling flames, and laughter echoing as you feast with friends and family under the stars.

Trend #3: Watery Wonderland:

Water features aren’t just for the rich and famous anymore. From babbling brooks to sparkling ponds, incorporating water elements adds a touch of tranquility and reflects the stunning beauty of the Rockies right in your backyard. Imagine the soothing sounds of water gurgling as you sip your morning coffee or unwind after a long day.

Trend #4: Edible Eden:

Forget the grocery store, plant your own! Raised garden beds bursting with fresh herbs, veggies, and even berries are not only trendy but also delicious. Imagine picking juicy tomatoes for your salad or fragrant basil for your pesto, all grown with your own green thumbs.

Trend #5: Cozy Corners:

Let’s face it, Colorado evenings can get chilly. But that doesn’t mean you have to hibernate! Create intimate and inviting spaces with fire pits, hammocks, and string lights. Picture snuggling up with a good book by the flickering flames or enjoying late-night chats with friends under a canopy of twinkling lights.

Bonus Trend:

Let the bugs buzz! Pollinator-friendly gardens are all the rage, attracting bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds with vibrant blooms and fragrant herbs. Not only do they look gorgeous, but they also help our precious ecosys
