If you hope to change things up with your curb appeal, your lawn or backyard, several organizations, and companies have researched the biggest trends coming next year. They found the most popular ways to enhance your property along with the latest technology for your outdoor upkeep.<\/p>

\u201cIt\u2019s important for people to at least understand the trends that are being talked about around the country and in their area,\u201d says Jim Sweeney, founder, and CEO of Mom’s Design Build in Shakopee, Minn.<\/p>

Those trends also help landscape designers plus lawn and landscaping shop owners to listen and participate in what the market will want in the future. They then can respond with those products and landscape\u00a0design offerings as it becomes a need and want in their particular areas of the country.<\/p>

\u201cFor example, synthetic turf became popular across the country,\u201d Sweeney states. \u201cIt specifically hit the Minneapolis market this year. This is a cool trend that will continue with lots of places to put it such as in a shady area or a dog run.\u201d People also choose it for athletic situations such as a surface for their kids to play on.<\/p>

If you are looking to modify or completely change your outdoor spaces, look for these 10 developments that experts say top the list of lawn and landscaping\u00a0trends next year:<\/p>

1. Blazing backyards<\/h2>

Whether with fire pits or creative hardscaping, many homeowners and condo dwellers use their outdoor patios as primary kitchens and dining rooms, according to the\u00a0Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association<\/a>\u00a0(HPBA). \u201cManufacturers continue to present innovative, tech-enhanced outdoor kitchen islands built around premium barbecues \u2014 as well as hearth-centered tables, outdoor built-in audio\/TV systems, and other accents that meet consumers\u2019 desires for a full outdoor living experience in their backyard,\u201d the hearth association says.<\/p>

2. Easy peasy lawns<\/h2>

Landscape maintenance takes time, and who has a lot of that to spare? Home designers will be playing with low maintenance turf and options that will not make the homeowner fuss and feud with their lawn, Sweeney says. \u201cIf folks care for their lawn themselves, they want easily mowed areas so they can do the mowing quickly. We train them to have healthy lawns by aeration instead of using a lot of chemicals,\u201d he adds. You also need to own the appropriate lawn equipment along with\u00a0continually sharpened lawn\u00a0mower blades<\/a>.\u00a0Grass alternatives<\/a>\u00a0for those not wanting to mow at all include plant ground cover, mulch or cobblestone patios.<\/p>

3. Disappearing phantom screens<\/h2>

Retractable screens can become a life-changer for those wanting to enjoy the outdoor spaces year-round without being bugged by bugs. They can be placed on windows, doors and outdoor spaces such as patios, porches, and lanais. \u201cThey are easy to install and make indoor\/outdoor living more convenient without the bugs,\u201d Sweeney says. \u201cYou can let the fresh air in and keep bugs out. Our mosquitos are aggressive here in Minnesota.\u201d<\/p>

4. Gardening popularity<\/h2>

The\u00a02020 Garden Trends Report<\/a>, titled “Seeing 20\/20,“<\/em>\u00a0offers a look into some horticulture trends for the next year and beyond. Many of these trends come from yesteryear\u2019s trends such as getting closer to nature, rejuvenating the soil and allowing for a more thoughtful way of life. For instance, the popularity of gardening will continue to grow to a $49.3 billion industry by 2023 from $40.2 billion in 2018. Houseplants show the biggest jump with a 10 percent growth in 2018 with succulents as the largest proportion of plants sold. These can be used to beautify outdoor spaces, too. If you want to start small, your garden design can start with a few outdoor pots filled with tomatoes or native\u00a0plants.<\/p>

5. Covered pergola<\/h2>

\"CoveredSmart louvered pergolas allow spaces to be truly transformed, Sweeney states. Your living space can extend outside, with outdoor furniture protected from the rain or sun. The louvers can close with the touch of a button. \u201cThe pergola becomes watertight and allows you to extend the stay outside. \u00a0It can be costly, though, starting at $125 to $150 square foot installed,\u201d he says.<\/p>

6. Mushroom mania<\/h2>

They have been touted as one of the superfoods. But these gems you put on your pizza can also clean up oil spills, absorb pollution and fight smallpox and flu viruses, according to the Garden Trends Report.<\/p>

7. Lighting the way<\/h2>

Homeowners will be wanting more sleek, minimalist and linear lighting for their outdoors, Sweeney forecasts. The lighting that illuminates paths will be all about hiding the lighting so it softens the hard design elements. LED light channels playing hide-and-seek under sidewalks and patios gives guests a more calming feeling. One trending landscaping idea is placing lights under structures. It creates an illusion of floating paver steps, benches or bridges. If you like something little fancier, outdoor chandeliers can get you some jaw-dropping responses.<\/p>

8. Barbecue downsized<\/h2>

Barbecue manufacturers expand product lines for smaller, more mobile grills for the patio and wherever you want to go, HPBA says. This change comes from consumers’ desire to downsize their homes plus the ability to take their picnic and patio experience with them while tailgating or camping. Plus, grill manufacturers return to the traditional black and chrome schemes. That helps consumers update their patio spaces around with more traditional grill colors.<\/p>

9. Blue blossoming<\/h2>

The popularity of blue plants will continue with hydrangeas to salvia. Add them into your flower gardens and pots for show-stopping looks. According to “6 Landscape Trends for 2020 and Beyond<\/a>” from the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP), “You should also expect to see indigo in containers\/pots, pillows, and other outdoor decor.”<\/p>

10. Versatile porcelain tile<\/h2>

These tiles work great for a patio. They don\u2019t absorb moisture when it freezes allowing for expansion. It is versatile and lasts a long time, Sweeney adds. \u201cIt\u2019s so durable and so cool. It has a luxurious feel to it but can be casual, too, with many different patterns and colors. It also can look like marble.\u201d The material remains resistant to scratches and stains. \u00a0You can put it down under your outdoor kitchen, around your pool \u2014 anywhere you want to extend indoor living outdoors.<\/p>

\u201cPeople are looking for creature comforts used for the inside of their homes but now for part of their outdoor living,\u201d Sweeney says. \u201cAs a business, we try to anticipate what the clients will want today and into the future. It\u2019s an exciting time in our industry with all the new trends.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
