"My yard was overgrown. Simon and his team came in and did a great job of cleaning it up. He came out with his assistant and gave me a quote. Not the cheapest, but also nowhere near the most expensive either. The job included removal of overgrown grass and weeds, trimming of bushes and light tree trimming and removal of some small trees. We came to an agreement and his crew arrived on time on the day of the work. We did another walk around the yard before they started just to make sure everyone knew what was expected. I also marked some trees and bushes with tape so that these would be left alone or just trimmed. His crew was very efficient and got the job done in about 7 hours, including their lunch break. Other gardeners had told me it would take at least two days and hauling the debris off was extra. Simon's price included disposal. Excellent job all around! Highly recommended!"

"If you want a man who knows his plants, their characteristics, what environment they thrive best in, and the care they need (or don’t need), Cipriano Perez is that man. In addition to his extensive plant knowledge, in landscaping he sees not just the plans as a whole unit, but sees the details. He pays great attention to details be it in the placement of plants, the irrigation, or the esthetic appearance. He also takes great effort to do the job correctly (no short-cuts) and gives well thought out solutions to any problems that may arise. We are extremely happy with the landscaping he did on the side of our house and to the hillside and flat area in our backyard. He was careful to understand our tastes and it was clearly important to him to give us a garden that we would be happy with. In colloquial terms, “fantastic” and “awesome” are two words that come to mind to describe the landscape work that C. Perez Sprinkler and Landscape did for us."

"Jesus was very professional. He diagnosed and repaired the problem. Additionally, he adjusted the other sprinklers so they are now watering only the lawn and not the driveway & sidewalk as well. I would highly recommend. Thank you."

"The Green Life crew did an amazing job with my landscape. We had hedges installed and they even added drip lines. I love their attention to detail and plant recommendations because I’m a little picky. They also keep my lawn looking green and healthy."

"They did a beautiful job. They even had to cut around a number of decorative rocks. When we were restricted to watering twice a week outdoors my backyard lawn died within two weeks—-it gets full sun. I was nervous about artificial turf because I didn’t know anyone who had it, but the guarantee on the high quality material is very good. There is a lot of labor required to get the ground ready for the artificial turf. Hye Turf Designs has great people. Ask for Hutch——he is the co-ownerof the company."

"Yosi was very helpful in the design of our project to take out our grass and put in low water plants and mulch with pathways throughout our yards. We had an idea of what we wanted and he made our ideas happen. He was on time with every step of the process, and came in on budget. He stood by his guarantee to replace any plants that died and also re-smoothed the decomposed granite pathways to my liking."

"Motti was very personable and honest about what he thought would work for our front yard. He seemed to immediately understand our vision, and was able to create the look we wanted. He was also able to easily incorporate the fountain and leftover flagstone that we had already purchased. The work was done well and efficiently, including cleaning deep roots and removal of 2 large trees. The team was helpful within a couple days of the job completion after we realized that the sprinkler system was not working properly. My fear that the plants would die within weeks was unfounded -- only 2 plants died in the middle of the summer heat!"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Planting grass from seed requires time to grow before it can handle even light foot traffic. Most varieties require a minimum of three months before you can walk on them regularly. You can expect to wait at least one year before your lawn can hold up to heavy use. Because sod is already established, it can be walked on more quickly than grass planted from seed.

Buffalo grass spreads through both underground roots and above-ground stolons. The widespread root and stolon system makes up for this grass’s overall lack of density. It’s a hearty grass, so it spreads on its own slowly, especially considering that most of the male (no staminate) varieties of grass are sterile. You may think about over-maintaining your lawn to encourage growth, but this would have the opposite effect.

Too much clover in your lawn can indicate several issues with your soil. Clover can thrive in soils with abnormally high pH, low-cut grass, and low nitrogen. Amending these issues can push clover out for good.

Hardy perennial clover loves the low nitrogen and compact conditions that often come with poor, infertile soils. But other factors also contribute to a clover explosion, including drought conditions, cool temperatures, under fertilization, and over-irrigation. You’ll need to evaluate all these elements when planning to kill off the clover.

Bahia grass is not difficult to grow, but you might need patience for this slow-growing grass. Whereas some grass species, like Bermuda grass, can take 1 to 2 weeks to germinate, Bahia grass can take two or three times as long, making it seem like it won’t grow. But again, once your Bahia grass is established, it requires little maintenance. Its deep root system makes it a very durable grass that can bounce back after freezes and droughts. 

You can fertilize right after mowing as long as you've collected the clippings. If you leave grass clipping, they can form a mat that prevents the fertilizer from reaching the soil. Plus, grass clippings are rich in nitrogen, so if you leave them and then apply fertilizer, you can end up with too much nitrogen in the soil.
