Spring Yard Makeover Checklist
Follow this timeline for the best results this season.
Start with Soil
March–AprilSpring's first task: aerate and top-dress with compost. Healthy soil = everything else works better.
Plant After Last Frost
April–MayCheck your USDA hardiness zone. Most zones: plant after April 15. South: you're already clear.
Spring Bulbs First
March–AprilIf you planted bulbs last fall, they're about to pop. Build your design around what's already coming up.
Hard Prune Now
MarchRoses, ornamental grasses, and perennials need a hard cut back before new growth. Do it before April 1.
Set Your Irrigation
AprilCheck drip lines and sprinkler heads before the heat hits. Fix now, save water all summer.
Mulch After Planting
May3 inches of mulch locks in moisture and blocks weeds all season. Apply after soil warms up.

Spring Yard Makeover FAQ
Is it too late to start a spring yard makeover?↓
Not at all. The spring planting window runs from March through May in most of the US, with the sweet spot being April–early May. If you're in the South (zones 8–10), you're already in prime season.
How much does a spring yard makeover cost?↓
DIY spring makeovers typically run $300–$2,500 for an average yard. Hiring a full-service landscaper runs $2,500–$12,000+. Yardcast gives you a professional design and plant list — then you or a contractor execute it for far less.
What spring plants should I start with?↓
Start with early-spring bulbs (if already planted), then add perennials like lavender, coneflower, and black-eyed Susan in April. Add annuals for color in May. Our AI generates a plant list specific to your region, style, and yard size.
Can I design just part of my yard?↓
Yes — take a photo focused on the specific area (front bed, side yard, backyard corner) and the AI will design just that zone. You can run multiple transforms for different sections.
How accurate are the AI designs?↓
The AI preserves your house structure, fence, driveway, and hardscape exactly as they appear. It transforms only the landscaping and plants. The result is a photorealistic rendering of your specific yard — not a generic template.
