"The company was GREEN SCAPE LANDSCAPING, Jose was the owner and managed the job very well. I am very happy with him and his crew. His price was quite reasonable and I will use him again, as well as recommending him to my neighbors. Thanks! C. Walton"

"I've used Javier for landscaping work for years, so when I decided to completely re-landscape my front yard, hiring him was a no-brainer. His guys do great work and are so nice. He is also very knowledgeable with irrigation installation. I'm also a Realtor, so I've referred him to multiple clients"

"Exxcell Landscaping turned a baren landscape into a vibrant, livable space I will enjoy for years. I hired Exxcell Landscaping for a turf and irrigation job in my backyard and could not be more pleased with the outcome. Working with Alfredo was a joy. He's an exceptionally pleasant human being to be around. He was knowledgeable about what needed to be done and exercised his considerable expertise to make recommendations and shape the project in ways this layperson could not have contemplated. He listened to what I wanted and suggested enhancements that were hard to reject. I am particularly pleased with the plants he picked out and where he placed them while my kids agree the turf is best thing we've done to the house. I love that my kids have a new, safe, and beautiful play surface to enjoy. I'd trust Excell Landscaping with any landscaping job. I'm currently planning a hardscape lighting project with them and sometimes in the future plan to replace some dull brick with pavers. If I get results similar on future jobs, I'll be immensely pleased."

"i have gone through many yard and landscape companies over the past two years. Cherry is by far the best. They come when they say they will be coming, they work quickly yet efficiently, and they accomplish all that I ask. Junior and Jessie are a great tribute to this company. Do not hesitate to give them a try. I did and i am pleased."

"Earth First Landscape & Irrigation: (Completed (3) jobs for us! ***** 1) LANDSCAPING (SOD) We planted grass seed when we first bought the house, after the Arizona sun scorched it! We decided to plant sod! I reached out to Robert Sept 30, 2023, for a quote on our backyard to install sod. Robert responded promptly and scheduled our appointment Oct 7,2023 for evaluation and quote. Robert is polite, easy to talk to, professional, prompt and ALWAYS! answered all my questions, text messages, and phone calls. He explained the process of sod installation, how to care for the sod no matter how many times I asked them. :) Robert explained our sod is being grown and was ordered on Oct 10th, 2023. Our project started November 1, 2023 all projects were completed within time frame of 8 days per quote. Our contract was explained in detail of warranty, breakdown of cost, deposits, and all supplies needed to complete jobs. Robert and his team were OUTSTANDING! ON TIME! PROFESSIONAL! I was amazed at the hard work, and teamwork rototilling Arizona, caliche ground! and installing the sod! Robert sprayed liquid fertilizer on the sod in Dec 2023. Robert came over today (3-23-24) to evaluate the lawn, is providing another fertilizer treatment end of May or April 2024. Our lawn looks and feels AMAZING!!!! 2) HIRED SPRINKLER SYSTEM (BACKYARD) Robert and his team installed 2 zone automated sprinkler system. I am highly impressed with this system! This will keep the sod evenly watered on a schedule. Robert showed us all work completed, location of all sprinklers. Robert always responds and addresses our concerns on water coverage on sod. He has stopped by about 3 times total for sprinkler coverage (including today) to adjust sprinklers, replace ones for better water coverage. We love our sprinkler system! 3) HIRED 11X11 PATIO (BACKYARD) I previously hired someone off Facebook! to install 11x11 patio. MISTAKE!!!!! Robert kindly noticed our 11x11 patio was sloped in the middle, on our back yard quote. My husband and I explained our concerns on how disappointed we are with the previous job! Robert asked would you like to add this 11x11 patio to your back yard project? Without hesitation we said YES! Robert and his team carefully removed all the pavers, some pavers were broken, due to prior Facebook person who installed it. Robert and his team prepped the ground, leveled it, and reinstalled my pavers. Our new 11x11 patio is LEVEL! Amazed at all the attention to detail, love the outside border. I am so glad we hired Robert and his team to re do our 11x11 patio. SO! PERFECT!!!!! YEAH!!!!! BONUS: (Pavers left over from patio quote) Robert and his team SUPRISED US! they added border pavers at both sides of the yard, we have gravel on both sides of the house. This is a nice added touch to the yard and keeps the gravel off the grass, as we have 2 dogs! Without hesitation his team raked all the gravel on the sides of the house, and in the front yard, where they walked and brought in supplies. Thank you for all your hard work!"

"Scott, the owner, personally came to my house and did the quote for the project. Then he was here both days that his crew was working to make sure everything was the way I wanted. I like that personal touch. And I didn't have to wait a long time either! He first said he could have it done in a couple of weeks and then called me the next day when another job got pushed back and was able to come the following week to get it done for me. His crew was wonderful! I couldn't believe how fast they cleaned up my yard. It would have taken me a week or longer to do it myself. And then they did all the landscaping the second day in about 5 hours. I got pea gravel, a lot of turf and a very nice brick 10 x 10 patio. It's just beautiful looking and I'm very happy with it. My old ugly yard is no more! Scott also explain to me how to maintain and take care of the turf,, so now I feel like I can keep my yard looking beautiful forever."

"Cornelio showed up on time to give me an estimate. He is very professional and I immediately felt at ease. He came with his crew the following week, on time on the day scheduled. They did amazing work. Went above and beyond. We just purchased a new home and the yard had been poorly maintained. Not only did they clean up the entire yard they pruned all the trees and bushes. Great value. I am hiring this company to do all my projects and monthly maintenance. You would be lucky to hire this company."

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.

Hedges can be trimmed in many other shapes than the standard square shape. They can be cut into spiral, cone, and sphere shapes. However, cutting and maintaining these types of shapes is much more challenging. There are metal frames that you can purchase to place around the hedge to make it much easier.

Xeriscaped lawns are far more varied than many gardeners initially assume. The often-pictured rocky and cacti-filled landscapes are just one option. Many wildflower-, herb-, and mulch-covered landscapes follow the same principles without straying too far from the lush and colorful landscapes we have come to know. In fact, there are numerous xeriscape ideas for customizing an energy-efficient lawn to your liking.

Since you’ll likely be digging a trench to install your yard drainage system, this is a good time to complete other tasks that involve digging up your yard, including: Sprinkler system installation Lawn reseeding Regrading your yard Redesigning your landscaping If your drain is under a walkway or driveway, your contractor must also remove those materials. This is a great time to consider upgrading your hardscaping features, especially if they’re nearing the end of their life span.

A window flower box should be deep enough that there’s room for a wide selection of plants and the required amount of soil and gravel. Standard flower boxes are 8 inches deep and 8 inches from front to back. Larger is better to increase the variety of plants in the box, but you could run into stability issues as it increases in weight.
