20 Front Yard Landscaping Ideas

Grow hydrangea bushes

Hydrangeas add a striking flourish to any front porch or entranceway. They’re also a great choice for border plantings.

They come in a variety of colors, so you can choose ones that will fit your home’s style and personality. French hydrangeas (Hydrangea macrophylla) are popular for their big, round flowers in a range of blue and pink hues.

To make the most of your hydrangea garden, plant it in a spot that will receive morning sun and afternoon shade. This will help ensure that your blooms stay bright and vibrant, and it will also give the plant a chance to develop its roots in the soil.

As with any landscaping plant, hydrangeas need plenty of water and a good soil mix. If you have heavy or clay soil, mix in organic matter to balance out the moisture content.
