"Olympus Landscapes and Perfections has completely transformed our yard and it looks incredible now. They installed sod, a large flagstone path, a paver pad, playground mulch, fire pit with a flagstone patio, fountains, retaining walls, plants, mulch, and playground mulch. Corey is extremely hardworking, honest, reliable, and a very talented landscape designer. They've exceeded my expectations."

"Hunter reviewed our plans and made some additional recommendations. We still owned the process and he did his best to create our vision out of hardscape material. He was prompt to come out and gave a very detailed estimate, breaking down materials and service. There was no doubt what was included in the quote. There were other firms that quoted the project at a lower price that did not get the job because their quote was too ambiguous. When it came to the installation, they were prompt, detailed and clean. Within three days they were complete. At the end of each workday the cleaned up and left the site presentable. We received great value and great service. We are delighted with HDR Landscaping’s work and highly recommend them"

"I purchased this landscape design package through Groupon. They came to my house three times: the first was to get an idea of what I wanted and to take photos of and measure the areas. They showed me the images during the second visit and asked if they needed to be changed. I received a quote for the work during the third visit, as well as digital images. They did not pressure me into purchasing landscape services and were very good about telling me which services should be performed by other companies because it would be less expensive to do so.

"When a storm came through, a tree fell on top of our cars and left a huge mess. My neighbor had been using Matt with JH Lawn Care for years and told me to give him a call. I called Matt the next morning, explained what had happened, and he immediately headed our way. Even though it was emergency work, his pricing was very reasonable. My insurance adjuster actually had to move things around because Matt already had his tree crew on the way. They were at my house by mid-morning, and by that afternoon the tree was gone and everything was cleaned up. Matt and his crew were friendly, professional, and worked incredibly hard. They made a stressful situation so much easier to deal with, and I couldn't have asked for better service. I would definitely recommend JH Lawn Care to anyone who needs tree work or lawn care."

"I originally wanted shrubs trimmed back, but changed my mind when I saw how massive the shrubs had become. The shrubs covered the entire first floor windows, doors, and part of the second floor windows. When he arrived to the job site, he was more than accommodating when I changed the plan to have the shuns cut down. It was a great decision and now the front of my house is visible, giving it a much cleaner look. I am very pleased!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

If you’re hiring a landscaper to plant the garden of your dreams, you do not need to provide them with plants that you bought yourself from a nursery. While you certainly can provide your landscaper with plants, keep in mind that some nurseries provide discounts to landscaping companies, therefore potentially lowering your materials cost. Beyond the cost of the plants themselves, you need to have additional materials like topsoil and mulch for the project. Most likely, your landscaper can get a discount on these materials as well, so it’s worth speaking with them before making any large purchases.

As much as you might try to keep a healthy, nutrient-rich lawn, you still may notice signs of St. Augustine decline (SAD)—a viral disease that discolors your grass blades. St. Augustine decline looks like:

  • Discoloration in the leaves (chlorosis)—leaves appear yellow and splotchy

  • Decline in growth

  • Leaves turn black within 3 years

  • Grass appears less vibrant

  • Grass begins to thin

  • Root rot

  • Grass takes longer to recover

As with anything you do near your foundation, you’ll want to ensure proper drainage when you plant your foundation beds. Your drainage should run downhill from the highest point against your foundation to avoid water intrusion and incurring expensive foundation repair costs.

Yes, you can absolutely transplant bushes instead of removing them completely. The success depends on the size of the bushes, their age, and the transplanting season. Ideally, transplant during the dormant season (late fall or winter). Dig out the entire root system in one piece, fill the new hole with fresh soil and mulch, and water thoroughly after planting.
