About Small (Under 1,000 sq ft.) Landscaping
All small (under 1,000 sq ft.) photos on YardShare are shared by real homeowners and landscaping professionals, so you can compare full projects instead of a single hero shot. Use these examples to study plant combinations, material choices, and how each feature connects to the rest of the yard before you copy anything at home.
Use the filters above to narrow your results by yard type, size, garden style, hardiness zone, or other features. You can also browse all yards or read our landscaping ideas blog for expert tips and how-to guides.
