Summer Gardening Trends

At Renewal by Andersen we take pride in providing the best window replacement options to our clients. But the window itself is where Renewal by Andersen’s contribution ends, until now! Our window installation experts can’t do your landscaping for you, but we can give you some advice on new gardening and lawn trends to help you create a colorful experience you will enjoy taking in every day through your Renewal by Andersen windows!

Butterfly bushes are beautiful and colorful, but they can also get a little unruly. Some can shoot up to eight feet tall in just one season! But some ingenious gardeners have bred a dwarf version of butterfly bushes, which can grow as little as a foot and a half and max out at about three feet wide. These hardy plants can even fit in a window box and will make a beautiful addition to the exterior of your Renewal by Andersen window.

Do you have a vegetable garden? Try getting creative with your veggie garden this year. Mix in a perennial or two next to your basil or sage. Or plant your cabbage in a curve instead of a straight line; see how creative you can get with your vegetable garden patterns!

Another new trend that works great with Renewal by Andersen windows are indoor vertical gardening systems. Set up a little vertical garden next to an Andersen window in your kitchen and you not only add a beautiful bit of green to your kitchen, but you get that great basil, cilantro, or mint smell too! Plus you’ll always have the perfect garnish within arm’s reach when you need it most!

Those are just a few ideas from your friends at Renewal by Andersen to add a bit of color to your window experience. We hope you have as much fun gardening this summer as we do!
