If you have ever taken a real look at your lawn and landscaping, you may find that it’s a little lacking. On your own, you might be able to keep everything relatively tidy, but the truth of the matter is that it takes a professional touch to bring out the real beauty in a yard. A landscape architect from Lawn Connections in Keller can really show you what your yard has to offer.

Textures

Have you ever realized that there are many different textures that form the look of your lawn? For example, when you think about landscape design, consider the plush texture of healthy grass, the soft textures of blossoms on trees or flowers, and the harsh angles presented by rocks in your garden. The right professional can help you create a look that is perfectly in keeping with your design aesthetic.

Maintenance

It does you no good to have an amazing landscape design that you cannot keep up. Some people love the idea of a gorgeous landscape that requires little maintenance from them; other people are willing to put a lot of time and love into keeping up their property. If you tell your landscape professional where you are coming from and what you are willing to invest, they can create the right kind of landscape for you.

Water

One thing that many people note about their yards is that there is no motion. A little bit of wind can pick things right up, but on still days, the yard looks somewhat stiff and lifeless. If you are looking for a bit of motion, water is a good choice.

For some people, a fountain or a birdbath is enough, while other people are not content until they have a pond in the backyard. Water will also throw back light, giving your yard a completely different look. This is where Keller landscaping is so useful.

Now that spring is just around the corner, adding a custom water feature to your Southlake landscape has never been more perfect. Lawn Connections can help you to achieve your goal with our water feature landscaping services. We can provide you with the water feature design you envision, build it for you, and help you maintain your new water feature to keep it looking beautiful.

Custom water features include ponds, waterfalls, garden fountains, and even streams. Water features enhance your property and can also work wonders with noise control as they can serve to block out background noises. Not sure which type of water feature is right for you? Try our guide below.

Ponds

Ponds are a beautiful addition to any landscape and come in many unique shapes and sizes. To ensure a successful pond landscape installation, water landscaping from a knowledgeable company is preferred. At Lawn Connections, our Southlake landscaping designers work with you to customize a pond to your unique landscape so it naturally blends with your existing outdoor area. We will review your location’s sun and shade properties to ensure that the pond is placed where it can thrive.

There are also many water plants available that can flourish in a pond environment, and you can even stock it with aquatic wildlife such as fish and turtles.

Waterfalls & Streams

Waterfalls and stream beds are moving water features that can be installed alone or in conjunction with a pond, adding a calming presence to your landscape. They can involve landscape installation of underground pumps, electricity lines, and boulder placement. A properly installed waterfall will add a whole new dimension to your landscape.

Garden Fountains

If you have a smaller landscape or you like a formal garden atmosphere, garden fountains are a perfect addition to your outdoor living area. Our landscaping specialists have experience in custom design, installation, and construction for wall fountains, tiered fountains, and even fountain sculptures. We’re positive we can create exactly what you’re looking for in a backyard fountain.
