Even though the weather is getting colder and the days are getting shorter, now is the perfect time to start thinking about your landscape installation for next year! The offseason is the best time of the year to reach out to our designers and consultants to create your dream landscape installation. When thinking of what you want to include in your installation, consider a water feature! A water feature, no matter what the size or shape, can do wonders for your yard. Here are some of the reasons why a water feature can be a game changer for your yard:
Attracting Wildlife
Wildlife is a great way to bring a little more life and activity to your landscape, and one of the best ways to attract wildlife to your yard is installing a water feature. Many animals are drawn to water, as they need it for many of their needs like drinking and bathing. In particular, birds, squirrels and rabbits especially like water.
Reduction of Noise Pollution and stress
It is hard to relax and enjoy the full beauty of your landscape with noise pollution. Running water and other natural sounds are able to block out the noise of traffic, which is proven to be a major cause of stress for those who live in residential areas. If you live near a busy street or highway, a water feature may be the perfect way to get the little bit of peace and relaxation you’ve always wanted!
Beauty
Perhaps the most obvious reason, a water feature has the potential to bring great beauty to your landscape. No matter what the setting or season, a water feature can be the perfect compliment to your landscape. You don’t need a big pond or other installation either! Our designers can design for any size or cost constraints you may have. From ponds to streams to fountains, we do it all!
