What Is the Difference Between Hardscaping and Softscaping?

Hardscaping and softscaping are essential parts of every good landscape design. But are you completely familiar with what these terms mean? If not, you may not be achieving your yard’s full potential. Four Seasons is here to help make sure you attack your next landscaping project with a full foundation of knowledge.

What Is Softscaping?

Softscaping is the natural aspect of your yard—trees, flowers, shrubs, and plants. These are essential items to your landscaping efforts because without sufficient plant life, your landscaping will just look empty. We offer great softscaping services through our nursery. So no matter how you want to design the plants in your yard, we can accommodate you.

What Is Hardscaping?

Hardscaping is the physical structure that makes up the backbone of your yard. Just like how hardscaping without plants looks barren, softscaping without structure makes your yard look disorganized. We can install any variety of hardscape to transform your yard into what you want it to be. Whether you have a hilly yard and need a retaining wall, or want to install a beautiful water feature, we can handle the task and help you figure out the best plants to pair with them!
