outdoor spaces. Always re- member to pressure wash your concrete before stain- ing it to remove dirt. This is important as you need a clean surface so that the stain can absorb easily and evenly. A clean surface will also help the stain soak en- tirely through.
TRIM HEDGES AND SHRUBS FOR DEFINITION
Bushes, hedges and shrubs possess a natural beauty that can boost the curb appeal of your home, while providing an attractive complement to lawns, trees, gardens and hardscapes. Well-trimmed plants also prevent your outdoor spac- es from looking overgrown and open up walkways and sightlines. Consider pruning low-hanging branches that obscure the view of your home from the road and re- duce the aesthetic impact of your landscaping features.

DON’T FORGET TO MULCH
After trimming your hedg- es and shrubs for definition and planting flowers, add 2 to 4 inches of mulch to your beds. Mulch keeps weeds down and helps dissipate heat from the sun to protect the soil from drying out, and it also provides a refined look to your landscape. As an al- ternative to mulch, you can purchase wood chips made of bark.
MAKE A STATEMENT
IN YOUR YARD WITH FLOWERS AND BLOOMS
Pick flowers with colors that complement the house colors, which will bring soft- ness to the front yard. Be sure to choose plants that are climate appropriate and thrive in your area; local nurs- eries are great resources for this. Consider using an auger instead of a shovel to help get through the planting pro- cess quickly. Also, be sure to
HAWAII RENOVATION 15 spread your new plants out
so that they have enough room to grow and thrive.
ADD A FINISHING TOUCH
To draw the eye toward the entryway of your home, hang a wreath on the front door, place a potted plant near the steps and add a water feature such as a self- circulating fountain. Water features such as ponds and fountains can add an archi- tectural element to soften your landscape design and may also attract natural wild- life to your yard.
Whether you’re a seller trying to create an unforget- table memory for a prospec- tive buyer, or a new home- owner trying to make your home more inviting, these landscaping improvements are easy ways to boost your home’s curb appeal.
