Welcome back for some spring front yard styling ideas that are simple, practical, and easy to apply in your own garden. Today we’re working through the front yard, side yard, and driveway border to show how a few thoughtful changes can make your landscape look more intentional without a full makeover.

In this video, we’re focusing on easy spring garden refresh ideas, including pruning nandina, lightly shaping boxwoods, removing overgrown or poorly placed plants, and using what’s already in the garden to create a cleaner, more beautiful look. We also talk about wisteria care, when to prune after blooming, and why strong support is essential before planting such an aggressive vine.

This episode is full of low-maintenance front yard ideas, curb appeal inspiration, and practical garden styling tips that can help you edit your landscape for spring. Sometimes the best refresh isn’t starting over — it’s simply rearranging, pruning, and revealing the beauty that’s already there.

If you’re looking for front yard garden ideas, spring pruning tips, and ways to make your outdoor spaces look more polished and purposeful, I think you’ll enjoy this one.

  1. A spring front yard refresh does not always mean starting over. Sometimes it just means better pruning, better placement, and a fresh set of eyes. Which tip in today’s video was most helpful for your garden right now?

  2. John stole the show with his clever line, "This is the kind of gardening I like!" I laughed out loud and thought , "Me, too!" Pruning always intimidates me, so Linda's demonstration was my favorite part of the video. I loved all of it, tho, as usual!

  3. Hi 👋 Your advice is always helpful. Please don’t take this the wrong way, but a simple google search will tell you when to prune, etc. AI is using so many resources, (“AI queries (like ChatGPT or Google's AI Overviews) generally require roughly 10x to 30x more energy and significantly more water for cooling than a traditional Google search.”) and they will continue to build these data centers, etc. I know one use isn’t going to do that, but there are good uses for it, and other tasks aren’t that complicated. 🙏

  4. Great video! You were so respectful to keep asking what he'd like done in the garden and then, to have the gift to really listen 🙂 So informative!

  5. This was indeed satisfying. Time to reassess the garden; what works, what does not, what needs to go, and what needs to be pruned.

  6. What is that plant called that you are pruning? Due to the frigid temperatures last month, mine is getting discolored on the tops. What can I do with the plant? Prune from the bottom?

  7. My nandina’s are in desperate need of pruning. Thanks for the inspiration to do that this week! Loved all the tips in this video and love seeing John, as always.

  8. Linda.. you and John are perfect friends..you two are so cute..and funny.
    Wow looking good..John's yard is beautiful ❤

  9. Prune wisteria twice yearly—late summer (July/August) and late winter (January/February)—to maximize flowering and control its vigorous growth. In summer, cut whippy green shoots back to five or six leaves. In winter, prune these same shoots back further to two or three buds, which develops flower spurs and ensures a spectacular, manageable display.

  10. Few things I love more than Linda and John in the garden! ❤ I am in the midst of rejuvenation pruning many overgrown shrubs on a recently purchased property—rehabbing some large box balls and pruning 50-year old azaleas into tree forms—the knowledge I’ve gained from Linda’s pruning videos has been essential.

  11. You can take those branches and you can put rooting harmonium on them or not, but poke them into a pot with soil and it may take a while, but they will root and create new plants. I do it all the time with mine.

  12. Such a great team Linda, John and Stewart ( I think the videographers name). John's home is a different style than Linda's home and you show different plantings against the exterior walls, so interesting. I enjoy your collaboration with your "team", the conversation of what should stay versus what should go is so pleasant to listen to. This has given me ideas of what to trim on my plantings. The concept of negative space is a good reminder, thank you.

  13. this is a good example of two perfectionists and only one of them has the pruner in their hand. This episode was IMO hard to watch. Maybe do an update on this side of the house, later this spring or summer when all the shrubs fill back out. With only one of you doing the deciding.
