A quality landscaping job can increase the resale value of your home by as much as 14%; meanwhile, a strategic landscape planting design might dramatically lower the cost of your energy bills. But one benefit that many homeowners routinely overlook is how to landscape for better privacy. Here are a few landscape design techniques and ideas for a more enclosed, private, and secure home.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Aim High<br \/>\n<\/strong>To give more privacy to small patios and porches, try adding vertical trellises that will aid plant growth without taking up too much ground space. Clinging plants offer enough obstruction to enjoy your morning coffee in peace while still letting through the early light.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Natural Fencing<br \/>\n<\/strong>A tall line of plants around your property line can serve as natural walls to offer privacy all year round. Evergreens are best suited for blocking sight lines from a first-floor window or backyard play space, for example.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Plan for Growth<br \/>\n<\/strong>If immediate privacy is what you&#8217;re after, it&#8217;s a good idea to purchase mature plants that will give you the shade and enclosure you want, rather than waiting several years for young plants to grow in. But at the same time, don&#8217;t forget to account for future growth, too. Tree roots too close to your house may cause foundation problems, while an overgrown patio can simply turn into a maintenance hassle.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Build in Containers<br \/>\n<\/strong>For open deck spaces, consider building in container planting areas or raised beds that can serve as gardens for flowers or vegetables in the spring and summer months. This is a great way to add both greenery and privacy to your deck at the same time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you&#8217;re unsure about <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.borsellolandscaping.com\/about\/\">how to landscape<\/a> for better privacy or don&#8217;t know where to start, don&#8217;t hesitate to ask for help.
