When it comes to making a home stand out, few improvements are as effective as a well-designed front yard. Whether you are preparing to sell your home or simply want to create a more welcoming entrance, front yard landscaping plays a major role in first impressions. At R.E. & Sons Landscaping, we specialize in functional, low-maintenance, and visually appealing designs that complement Prescott’s natural environment.

1. Choose Native and Drought-Tolerant Plants

In Prescott’s climate, plant choices matter. Native and drought-tolerant plants use less water, stay healthier throughout the year, and reduce maintenance needs. Shrubs, ornamental grasses, lavender, yucca, and desert-friendly flowers bring texture and color while remaining resilient in dry conditions.


2. Upgrade Walkways and Add Path Lighting

A defined walkway instantly improves curb appeal. Popular choices include pavers, flagstone, and decomposed granite. Adding landscape lighting not only highlights pathways and garden features after dark, but also increases safety and security at night.


3. Refresh Rock, Mulch, and Edging

Fresh rock or mulch makes any landscape look clean and refreshed. Crisp edging creates clean separation between grass, rock, and plant beds, giving the yard a neat and professional appearance. This small detail makes a big visual difference.


4. Create a Front Yard Focal Point

A focal feature brings character to the landscape. Options include:

  • Rock gardens or decorative boulder placements

  • A small water fountain or bubbling urn

  • Raised planters or colorful flower beds

  • Shade trees or entry arbors

Even a single feature can transform the overall look.


5. Keep the Lawn Healthy or Go Low-Maintenance with Artificial Turf

If your yard includes natural grass, regular mowing, fertilizing, and watering keep it lush and green. For homeowners wanting less upkeep, artificial turf provides a year-round green lawn without mowing, watering, or reseeding.


6. Add Seasonal Color

Flowers and seasonal plants bring life to any front yard. Containers near the entryway or brightly colored shrubs add a welcoming touch and keep the space vibrant throughout the year.


7. Incorporate Hardscaping

Hardscaping adds structure and style to a landscape. Decorative rock borders, retaining walls, concrete curbing, stone steps, and boulder accents work well in Prescott and pair nicely with native plants.


Why Curb Appeal Matters

Front yard landscaping is more than a visual improvement. It increases property value, creates a welcoming atmosphere, supports efficient water use, and helps homes stand out in the neighborhood. With the right design, even small changes can produce a dramatic effect.
