A few well-chosen pieces can turn a bare patio or yard into a space you love. Here is where to start.

Plant stands

Plant stands lift your plants so they get more light and look better. Choose metal for durability, bamboo or wood for a natural look, and multi-tier designs if you want to display several plants in a small space.

Trellises and fence panels

A trellis gives climbing plants like roses, beans and peas something to grow on. Look for rustproof metal so it lasts through rain and sun.

Raised garden beds

Raised beds make planting easier on your back and help you control the soil. A planter box with a built-in trellis is a good option for growing flowers, herbs and vegetables in a small area.

Patio furniture

An outdoor sectional gives you comfortable seating for relaxing and entertaining. Check the frame material and cushion covers for weather resistance.

Simple care tips
