Your lot might be 10 acres or a half-acre, but you can still incorporate landscaping into your home’s entryway. Adding trees, shrubs, flowers and even retaining walls and steps can soften the entry sequence. If your property slopes, retaining walls and steps made from slate or brick can create a defined scenery. Also, the steps will make the slope more gradual and graceful looking. Flower beds above the retaining walls can add color and personality. Plus, it can be a fun family activity. If you have a

high population of deer, keep in mind plants that deer don’t tend to eat such as the Blue Star, Butterfly Bush, Hydrangea, Lilac and Daffodils. A way to make your front door more welcoming is to fill large planters with small flowers like pansies or fill the planter with hanging plants such as ivy or the Wandering Jew. This 41” Large Cast Iron Samantha Urn Planter from Unique Home and Garden D?cor can make a statement.
