Hand-drawn illustration of a backyard with house, patio, shed, playground, sandbox, grass, and landscaping.

landscaping ideas for a .25-acre square lot. Include a 700 sq ft rectangular covered patio with a stone fireplace and outdoor kitchen. On the left side of the house a shed, covered play area with a playground, sand box, and a playhouse. Grass in the middle of the yard. On the right side of the house I want grass, and plants, flowers, and trees along the fence. as far as what kind of flowers/plants/trees, I’m looking for ones that grow well in Colorado Springs. And perennials only please. See more
