5 walkway enhancement ideas from Norwood MA landscape contractors

As you wander among Norwood landscapes, you probably notice that the majority of them have walkways – from stone to pavers to concrete to flagstone.  A lot of thought can go into building a walkway. There are a number of designs, materials, and colors, to choose from. With all these decisions to make, the walkway itself can consume a lot of your attention. However, as important as the walkway is, you don’t want to forget to think about how you can enhance the walkway and how it will integrate into your whole landscape.

Here are 5 walkway enhancement ideas from Norwood MA landscape contractors.

1. Lighting – One thing you can add along your walkway is lighting. There are different styles of walkway lighting you can choose including low-voltage lights, solar lights, accent lighting, and lanterns.
2. Hedges – For those who would like to bring out your walkway and would like it to have a more natural feel, you can add hedging. Some hedges to consider along walkways include boxwoods, barberries, hollies, and yews.
3. Fencing – If you would like to bring out your walkway and give it more of a modern feel, small fencing is another option. Some types of small fencing to consider include designed edging, roped stakes, and picket fencing.
4. Stone beds – Another possibility for accenting your walkway is to add stone beds. Some options include smaller stones and decorative gravel.
5. Mulch beds – If you would like to accent your walkway, but don’t want to use stone, another option is to add mulch beds. There are a variety of mulch blends to choose from. Additionally, with both stone and mulch beds, you can add flowers and shrubs throughout them.
