As life has gotten increasingly connected and busy, many people and businesses in Arizona choose landscaping that has minimal maintenance requirements to save time, physical effort, and money. Several clients contribute to this trend:
- Busy business owners who want a green, natural looking landscape without a regular watering schedule
- Homeowners who travel frequently and have little time to maintain a yard, but still want to keep their property looking nice
- Older adults who may have difficulty with the physical tasks of maintaining a natural landscape with lots of plants
- Couples with children who have busy schedules for sports, clubs, and other activities
Anyone who values their time can benefit from using artificial turf for a landscape requiring minimal maintenance. Here are some ideas for using artificial turf and pavers to create hardscape designs that are low maintenance and appealing to your clients.
A focal point
Artificial grass can be a focal point of a yard or atrium, drawing the eye with its bright color and contrasting with the area around it. You can use material such as small gray or brown landscaping rocks or gravel to cover the ground next to the turf for minimal maintenance needs. Or create visual appeal with paths and patterns using our selection of pavers.
A play area
Whether for human children or furry ones, synthetic grass can be used in place of natural turf for a softer play surface for children, and an easy to clean one for pets. Unlike a lawn, no sprinkler system, fertilizer or mowing is needed, saving hours each year. And with no fertilizer, you don’t have to worry about exposure to pets or children.
Ground covering for a yard or atrium
Synthetic grass can be used to cover the majority of ground in a home’s yard or an atrium for an office or apartment building. Eliminating a lawn and installing low-maintenance plants in certain spots, such as the Ironwood tree or creosote bush, creates a space that looks beautiful without frequent care. A drip system strategically placed to water plants can further lower maintenance requirements.
With pavers
Artificial turf can be used next to pavers to create a verdant space around a patio or walkway. As pavers are hardscaping, they need no real maintenance beyond occasional cleaning and replacement when they get damaged. Pavers had visual patterns as well as serving for pool decks, pathways, planter areas, patios and outdoor kitchens.
