A major part of your property’s overall curb appeal includes the driveway. While this area is typically paved, there are plenty of ways to incorporate greenery and hardscaping so your driveway is visually dynamic. Here are a few driveway landscaping ideas to add beauty and value to your home.

4 Driveway Landscaping Ideas to Beautify Your Property

1. Paved Borders

Establishing a border between your yard and driveway using paving stones can add a clean layer to your property. This transitional space will keep your grass and plant life from growing through the pavement, making landscape maintenance much easier. Plus, a raised border will give your driveway and yard a more polished appearance. 

2. Retaining Walls

When your home is on elevated land, the lawn can erode your driveway after rainstorms or flooding. To eliminate this issue, install retaining walls made of brick or cement. Retaining walls let you plant trees, bushes, and flowers in a contained space while protecting your driveway from damage. 

3. Center Garden

Semicircular driveways are incredibly convenient since you won’t have to reverse in or out of your parking spot. The center area is also ideal for planting trees, flowers, or a water feature. Using this space for landscape design and hardscaping will draw the eye away from pavement and cars toward a stunning focal point. 

4. Grand Entrance

Welcome guests to your home by treating your driveway as a grand entrance. Plant trees, bushes, and flower beds symmetrically on either side to establish a lush and luxurious path. Garden lighting will add even more depth and drama at night.
