If you live in 78250 — around Great Northwest, Tezel Road, or Guilbeau — chances are your yard is 10–30 years old. Over time, even a once-beautiful landscape can start to look tired: thinning grass, overgrown shrubs, faded mulch, and outdated layouts.
But here’s the good news: you don’t have to tear it all out to bring it back to life.
With a few smart upgrades, you can refresh your yard and boost your curb appeal — without a full redo.

1. Remove Old Mulch and Add Fresh Rock Beds
Mulch breaks down, fades, and holds moisture that attracts bugs. Replacing it with clean river rock or gravel modernizes the space and adds long-term durability.

2. Low-Maintenance Rock Beds
Replace weedy mulch beds with clean river rock, granite, or gravel. It’s modern, drought-friendly, and lasts way longer than mulch. Plus, it keeps pests away and looks amazing year-round.

3. Trim, Shape, or Replace Overgrown Plants
Most yards in 78250 were built with fast-growing shrubs and outdated layouts. Trimming overgrown bushes or replacing them with native, low-maintenance plants gives your yard an instant face-lift.

4. Add One Focal Point
Whether it’s a new tree, a gravel path, or a small patio seating area, adding one modern feature to your existing layout creates a fresh and intentional look — without major cost.

5. Drought-Tolerant Plant Design
78250 gets the heat — but that doesn’t mean your yard has to look dead. Add beauty without the high water bill by integrating native and drought-tolerant plants into your design.
