As the summer heat is on the verge of transitioning into the cooler temperatures of fall, it’s a great opportunity to start creating some eye-catching autumnal magic on your landscape with a bit of vibrant seasonal color. 

Now, you may be thinking that planting new annuals right before the chill of winter sets in might not be the best use of your landscape management budget; but please bear with us for a few moments, because we have some powerful arguments as to why this is, in fact, an investment that offers great returns, particularly if you plan ahead with your local U.S. Lawns commercial landscaping partner. 

So just what are the advantages of transforming your grounds with seasonal color updates? There are many, but here are a few big ones. 

There Are Great Advantages To Enhancing Your Landscape With Seasonal Color

  1. Curb Appeal – whether you’re managing a hotel or resort, a retail shopping center, business park, manufacturing facility, medical campus, apartment complex, or even multiple commercial properties located across the nation, one of the most effective ways to impress your audience is by presenting a welcoming exterior. The strategic placement of colorful foliage and blooming plants for every season is a cost-effective way to accomplish it. 
  2. Brand Recognition – many companies have discovered the benefits of choosing a color scheme for their landscape that incorporates their brand colors, and some have even taken it a step further by integrating their logo design into their plant beds. Connecting your landscape with your brand vision can serve the dual purpose of making your property immediately recognizable to patrons, employees, tenants, visitors, and passersby, while contributing to your credibility as a caring, conscientious member in your community.
  3. Influence Moods & Attract Customers – we all know that elevating the human spirit can have a strong influence on our decision-making process. One of the best ways to keep residents or tenants content or draw customers to your establishment and compel them to spend time and money while they’re there, is to create an inviting environment, and a lively seasonal color display can be a very effective attractant.  
  4. Stand Above Competitors – when you’re located in a region that is saturated with competition, fresh fall color in the form of changing leaves, bright berries, variegated foliage and enchanting blooms on your commercial landscape can help you stand above; not only does your property have that ever crucial curb appeal, but when clients and prospects observe the care you give to your property’s exterior, it is a good indication that you take extra care with the rest of your operation too, which could be the added boost your business needs. 

Plan With Your Landscape Management Partner For Fall Color Early.

As we mentioned earlier, planning for fall color rotation with your U.S. Lawns landscape management partner (or any commercial landscape services provider for that matter) early can be very beneficial, for a few reasons: 

  • First, it enables your landscaping team to secure the specific annuals you want to include in your new fall color arrangements, along with any special potted plants that may need to be updated for the season. Additionally, fall is the best season to plant spring bulbs as well as most perennials, ornamental grasses and new shrubs and trees. Planning ahead of time assures you that suppliers will be able to provide everything on your list. 
  • As importantly, your landscape maintenance professionals are able to prepare your landscape to ensure your new plantings will become well established and flourish. Some of the prep work involved may be:
    • Testing the soil and making any necessary amendments to be certain it has the proper pH level and nutrient balance, as well as the right amount of drainage to support the unique plant life you’ve chosen.
    • Trimming existing perennials back to keep them beautiful and healthy
    • Removing unwanted vegetation to make space for new plantings
