Explore the latest trends in landscaping

In the new year, it’s always exciting to explore the latest trends in landscaping that will shape the beauty of our outdoor spaces for 2024 and beyond. 

At Precision Lawn & Landscape, we are dedicated to staying at the forefront of the industry, consistently delivering exceptional landscapes that reflect current styles and meet the unique preferences of our valued customers. 

So, let’s dive into the top 10 landscaping trends you can expect in 2024.

1. Sustainable Landscaping

There has been a growing emphasis on sustainability and environmental consciousness in recent years. In 2024, this trend will reach new heights. Homeowners will increasingly prioritize eco-friendly landscapes that minimize water usage, promote biodiversity, and support local ecosystems. Planting native species, installing rainwater harvesting systems, and incorporating organic materials into the soil are just a few ways sustainability will be integrated into landscape design.

2. Smart Landscaping Technology

Technology advancements have revolutionized how we live, and the landscaping industry is no exception. In 2024, the integration of smart technology will become more prevalent in outdoor spaces. From automated irrigation systems that adapt to weather conditions to outdoor lighting that can be controlled with a smartphone, homeowners will have increased control and efficiency in maintaining their landscapes.

3. Outdoor Living Spaces

The desire for outdoor living spaces has steadily grown, and 2024 will be no exception. Homeowners seek to extend their living areas beyond the confines of their homes. Patios, decks, and outdoor kitchens will become more sophisticated and versatile, offering comfortable seating, cooking facilities, and entertainment options. Creating inviting, functional, and beautiful outdoor spaces will be a top priority for landscape designers.

4. Vertical Gardens

For urban dwellers or those with limited yard space, vertical gardens will gain significant popularity in 2024. These innovative, space-saving gardens allow homeowners to maximize their greenery by growing plants vertically on walls, fences, or structures. Vertical gardens add visual interest and provide improved air quality and insulation to surrounding spaces.

5. Low-Maintenance Landscapes

Many homeowners are looking for low-maintenance landscaping options in today’s fast-paced world. This trend will continue to gain traction in 2024. Drought-tolerant plants, artificial turf, and strategic placement of hardscape elements will create stunning landscapes requiring less upkeep and water. This allows homeowners to enjoy their outdoor spaces more than maintain them.

6. Biophilic Design

Biophilic design focuses on creating a connection between people and nature. With an increased understanding of the mental and physical health benefits of spending time in nature, this trend will flourish in 2024. Landscape designs will incorporate natural elements such as water features, living walls, and natural materials to create a calming and rejuvenating outdoor environment.

7. Outdoor Lighting Enhancements

Outdoor lighting not only adds beauty but also extends the usability of outdoor spaces into the evening hours. In 2024, we will see a rise in landscape lighting that highlights architectural features, illuminates paths and walkways, and creates ambiance. LED technology will continue to dominate, offering energy efficiency and a wide range of options to suit various design aesthetics.

8. Edible Gardens

The desire for more sustainable and nutritious food has led to a surge in vegetable and herb gardens. In 2024, edible gardens will become integral to landscapes, combining functionality with beauty. Homeowners will embrace the “farm-to-table” concept, growing their fresh produce and herbs in aesthetically pleasing garden beds or containers.

9. Desert-Inspired Landscapes

With the increasing concerns about water scarcity in certain regions, desert-inspired landscapes will gain popularity in 2024. These landscapes feature desert plants such as succulents, cacti, drought-tolerant grasses, and natural rock formations and pebble pathways. These designs conserve water and provide a unique and striking aesthetic that captures the beauty of arid landscapes.

10. Multi-Seasonal Landscapes

Creating landscapes that flourish in multiple seasons will be a key trend in 2024. Homeowners want to enjoy vibrant landscapes year-round, so landscape designers will focus on selecting plants that offer interest and color in different seasons. Incorporating evergreen trees and shrubs, perennial flowers, and ornamental grasses will ensure the beauty and appeal of the landscape throughout the year.
