CLEVELAND, Oct. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- A new Freedonia Group analysis forecasts residential demand for landscaping products to grow 2.3% per year through 2025 to $7.2 billion. Major trends supporting growth of landscaping product sales have seen increased intensity as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, including:

greater investment in outdoor living areas, which can offer a comfortable and safe alternative to crowded public spaces and indoor gatherings
higher participation in gardening, spurring sales of landscape products that facilitate this activity
increased near-term spending on home improvements, particularly on higher value professional-grade projects, as the pandemic allowed more consumers to divert time and funds for home improvement projects

While some trends will continue to grow in popularity, others will moderate post-pandemic. For instance, professionally installed products are expected to outpace those installed by consumers through 2025 as more people resume activities outside the house and the "do-it-for-me" (DIFM) movement regains momentum.

Hardscaping & Outdoor Lighting Among Biggest Beneficiaries of DIFM Rebound

Through 2025, hardscaping and outdoor lighting are two areas that will see above average growth as the (DIFM) market rebounds. The pandemic led many homeowners to delay large, costly, or complicated projects. As the pandemic wore on, and consumers became more comfortable with having workers at their homes, contractors became overwhelmed with orders, causing longer lead times. Because hardscaping and lighting can be difficult to install, professionals will benefit from consumer interest in outdoor areas, particularly as the DIFM trend expands through 2025.
