As the holidays approach, Arizona’s cooler evenings and mild days create the perfect setting to enjoy your yard with family and friends. While other parts of the country are covered in snow, here in Arizona we get to celebrate outdoors — and that makes fall the ideal time to upgrade your outdoor living space.
With just a few hardscaping enhancements, you can turn your yard into a warm, inviting space for entertaining, relaxing, and celebrating the season.
Here’s how PROS Tree & Landscape can help you make your outdoor space holiday-ready.
Nothing says “holiday season” quite like a glowing fire on a cool desert night. A custom fire pit or outdoor fireplace instantly adds comfort and ambiance to your backyard.
Choose from natural stone, concrete block, or paver designs that complement your home’s architecture. Add built-in seating around the fire for a welcoming touch.
🔥Pro Tip: Gas fire pits are convenient and low-maintenance, while wood-burning versions create that classic campfire feel.

Create a safe and beautiful flow between your home and backyard with paver walkways and landscape lighting. These features make your yard look magical at night while improving visibility for guests.
Use solar or low-voltage LED lights to line paths, accent trees, or highlight your new hardscape features.

Outdoor entertaining is easy when you have a functional cooking and dining setup. Fall is the perfect time to install a built-in grill, stone countertop, or outdoor bar area before holiday gatherings.
A custom hardscape kitchen or dining patio makes your space more versatile and adds long-term value to your property.

Skip having to worry about mowing, watering, and constant upkeep — artificial turf stays lush, green, and picture-perfect year-round. It’s pet-friendly, durable, and ideal for holiday gatherings, outdoor décor, and festive lighting. It’s one less thing to worry about during the busy holiday season, so you can focus on enjoying time with family and friends instead of keeping up with your lawn.
Hosting larger gatherings? Create structure and flow by adding a paver patio or seating wall. These features define your outdoor living area and make it easier to decorate for the holidays with lights, greenery, or seasonal accents.
Warm-toned pavers and stone borders pair beautifully with desert plants, creating a space that feels festive yet timeless.

A quick way to elevate your yard before guests arrive is to refresh your rock, mulch, and borders. Decorative rock or gravel adds color and structure, while new edging keeps your space tidy.
Choose textures and tones that complement your hardscape — think crushed granite, river rock, or flagstone chips. It’s an easy upgrade that instantly polishes your landscape.
Your hardscape comes alive at night with the right lighting. Combine path lights, uplights, and string lights to highlight your favorite features — from your fire pit to your desert plants.
Soft white or amber tones feel cozy and festive, while accent lighting adds drama and depth.
💫 Pro Tip: Keep your lighting subtle and warm to enhance your natural landscape instead of overpowering it.
This holiday season, your backyard can be the most inviting part of your home. From fire pits and patios to outdoor kitchens and lighting, PROS Tree & Landscape can help you design a space that’s beautiful, functional, and ready for every celebration.
