Flower & Garden: The New Instagram Model

When you think of the latest trend of online “influencers”, you think of fitness models, celebrities and other individuals of stature that we aim to emulate. Not often do we picture flower gardens, stately cabbages or manicured lawns. In the Los Angeles area though, this is starting to become a trend that hundreds of thousands are following. Those who put the time and effort into their lawns are starting to see a high level of engagement and interest from the general public.
 
What’s popular week to week on the Internet has always been a bit of a mystery to unravel. From attractive retail checkout clerks to a dog’s happy dance mimicking the cha-cha, it can be difficult to understand the particular movements of the online world. Seeing a rise in interest when it comes to home and garden maintenance is a welcome trend, as it not only provides a wholesome gathering point for individuals across the country but also can serve the added benefit of getting individuals interested in the maintenance of their own properties, thereby elevating the appearance of their neighborhood.
 
With the fortuitous climate of the Los Angeles area, coupled with the general care for the overall appearance of our properties, it’s no small wonder why gardens in our neck of the woods have become the popular choice for individuals on social media platforms to follow. Take a trip through any neighborhood in the city and you will see perfectly manicured lawns dotting all manner of neighborhoods, worthy of stopping for a few snapshots to share with the world. This passing hobby though, with the help of the internet, has turned into a fad that seems to be sweeping the platform.
 
It’s great to see an aspect of our community reach this level of popularity in the online space. Being able to have our city and its inhabitants recognized for a positive impact being made not only to the neighborhood but also to the planet as a whole is always a great thing and something we can take pride in when it comes to that which gains attention in the Los Angeles area. It’s nice to be known for something outside of the glitz and glamour, Hollywood Boulevard and the stars of the silver screen that normally get the highest views.
 
If you’re one of these individuals who has put this time and effort into your landscaping and gardening, then we salute your efforts and look forward to seeing exactly how far you manage to bring your space over the next few years. We wish you all the best when it comes to the online platform of choice and the level of visibility that you experience in that regard and we thank you for putting yourselves out there for individuals across the country to enjoy and to be inspired by. A positive influence is always something to celebrate where our community is concerned.
