"Bronze Star? More like GOLD Star! I contacted Mr. Ford the day previously and was told that he would meet me this morning to look at my yard and to give an exact quote. As per what he said, he showed up bright and early this morning and gave me a quote for our rather overgrown yard—our yard has been long, long overdue for a cutting due to a lack of mower avaliability. To my surprise, it was beyond affordable and far below what I would expect for such a messy yard. He excelled past my expectations and said well beyond them. Robert is a very courteous man—he is honest and treated myself and my grandfather with respect and dignity, something that our previous cutter did not do. All in all, Robert is an absolute pleasure to work with and without a doubt, someone I would highly, highly recommend to others!"

His crew was very polite and professional. Treated my back yard like it was their own. Kinsley and his crew kept a clean work area from start to finish. 10/10 business"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

It’s usually best to buy plants from a local greenhouse or nursery yourself, but landscapers are also a reliable option. First, you can choose exactly what plants you want based on their appearance rather than relying on your landscaper to choose. Additionally, while it’s more time-consuming to go buy the plants yourself, you’ll often save money because landscapers charge for delivery and may upcharge the plants. You can also speak to a professional at a nursery to ensure you understand how to care for your plants and get the most long-term value.

While there are over 400,000 different flowering plants worldwide, there are five main types of flowers. These flower types are based on their lifecycles, giving each type a unique personality. These types are:

  • Annuals, which complete their entire life cycle within a single growing season. 

  • Perennials, which the tops die off in the winter but regrow in spring. 

  • Biennials, which complete their entire life cycle within two years.

  • Hybrids, which exhibit either annual or perennial behaviors depending on location

  • Flowering shrubs, which are small to medium-sized perennial woody plants, such as shrubs or evergreens.

If you are xeriscaping a lawn from scratch, your best bet for preparing the lawn is to work with a xeriscaping specialist in your area. The most common first step to making the transformation, however, will be to remove the turfgrass from your lawn. The subsequent steps will often include amending the soil to support new plants and installing low-drip or drip irrigation systems.

You should use mulch because it protects garden soil in a few key ways. This extra layer between the ground and the elements protects against erosion, helps your soil maintain moisture, regulates changes in temperature, adds nutrients as it decomposes, and keeps weeds at bay.

The best place to plant a rose bush is where it will be happiest. Growing roses is difficult if the location varies much from what the plants like. Choose a location that gets at least six hours of direct sunlight during the growing season but not much more than that in hot-climate locations. If such a spot doesn't exist in your yard, consider planting your rose in a movable container to take advantage of portability.
