Kris Jenner's stunning garden landscaping technique is a masterclass in prioritizing both beauty and function
For stylish garden inspiration, look no further than the Kardashian momager's yard. She uses concrete furniture and subtle greenery for a functional, sophisticated look
As a business mogul and a busy mother of six, Kris Jenner needs spaces where she can relax. At the same time, these areas need to be functional for hosting her family. The famed momager's garden perfectly satisfies these requirements.
Jenner's garden idea is a lush green oasis featuring olive bushes, deciduous trees, and sprawling ground cover. Punctuating the verdant landscape, a gray concrete bench and rounded concrete planter add visual contrast and create a relaxing seating area. As part of her backyard ideas, Kris also uses a trellis that connects her garden to her daughter, Khloe Kardashian's, yard.
This type of landscaping has two purposes: creating a wonderful space to spend time in and projecting natural beauty.

The function of Jenner's garden is expansive. Jennifer Ebert, digital editor and color expert at Homes & Gardens states: 'As the warmer months set in, outdoor spaces become an extension of our homes. Spaces like outdoor living rooms create an alternate place for entertaining uncontained by the interior of a home. A stylish concrete bench like Kris Jenner's is the perfect outdoor seating option, providing benefits for aesthetics and comfort.'
Jen is the Editor (Digital) of Homes & Gardens. Before starting this position, she had completed various interior design courses at KLC Design School, as well as working across Ideal Home, LivingEtc, 25 Beautiful Homes and Country Homes & Interiors as an interiors writer.
Though the natural beauty of Jenner's garden is evident at a glance, the reasons for its appeal goes beyond looks. 'By pairing the greenery of her yard with the gray of a concrete planter and bench, Kris taps into one of the world's most classic color schemes: green and gray,' Ebert tells H&G. 'It's a very soothing color scheme, celebrating the classic colors we associate with the outdoors and bringing a cool cast to the outdoor space. It is a modern take of the old, European sculpture garden featuring both green and gray accessories.'

The trellis garden adds further visual appeal to Kris's outdoor space. This style is exceptionally visually impressive and brings beautiful height to Jenner's backyard. The various zones of the garden add variety, once again allowing for different calming spaces and adding more visual intrigue.
This fiberglass and concrete planter can be used both indoors and outdoors for a stylish and grounding touch. Looks similar to the one Kris uses in her garden.
For beautiful, functional garden inspiration, look no further than Kris Jenner's outdoor space. The stylish, beautiful garden utilizes well placed furniture, carefully chosen plants, and a winning green and gray color scheme to produce stunning results.
