"Ivan and the whole team were incredible! Timely, worked very efficiently, and gave us a brand new yard in half a day! They cleared crabgrass, manicured our plants, laid bark, removed every single weed on the property, and just generally left the place looking refreshed and beautiful. Thank y’all so much for the hard work!! We look forward to working with you again!"

"Mr. Alfaro has done yard work for me in the past, most recently a few days ago.  He is an excellent gardener who always shows up on time, does a great job and  thoroughly  cleans up all the debris  before he leaves.  I have lived in my house for many years and have never had a better gardener."

"Very accommodating to our schedule. Friendly but above all professional. Yard looked better than expected, really above and beyond. Compared to the last people we hired, him and one other guy did more work than 4 people. I really just can’t say enough good things about him. Will hire him again if needed."

"We hired Green Magic to makeover our yard. I gave Geno a sketch and a "vision" of what we wanted and he made ir come to life! We were extremely pleased with how quickly the team worked, and how the finished project turned out, but most of all, with working with Geno. Green Magic truly transformed our yard into a space we can use and enjoy, just like magic!"

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can absolutely make your own mulch, and there are a few ways to go about it. First, you can lay down pine needles or mulched leaves if you’re mulching in the fall. In the spring and summer, you can use mulched grass clippings. Alternatively, you can lay down a few layers of newspaper in your garden and gently wet the paper to keep it in place.

Several tools exist that can help remove unwanted grass. The one you choose depends greatly on how much you need to remove and how hard you'd like to work. A sod or turf cutter is the fastest method while using a shovel is labor-intensive and much slower. You may also need a garden rake, tiller, and wheelbarrow. 

If you have a large number of leftover roots, shrub branches, rocks, and soil to remove from your stump removal project, you may need to call a professional junk removal service. A small truckload of junk removal costs between $75 and $125 to haul away. You may also have a free composting center in your area where you can haul the materials on your own.

Yes, it's perfectly safe and environmentally sound to mulch leaves with a lawn mower, provided that the layer of leaves isn't too thick and the leaves are dry and crispy. Too many wet leaves get sticky and will clog the mower. Thick layers of leaves can suffocate the lawn after the leaves have been mulched, so the layer should be no more than six inches thick.

Generally, it is not necessary to remove old mulch before applying a new layer. As organic mulch breaks down, it enriches the soil with nutrients. However, you should remove the old layer if it shows signs of fungus or disease, which can be common in moist areas, or if the total depth is already too thick. Avoid letting the total mulch depth exceed 3 inches, as this can harm plant roots. If you do remove old, disease-free mulch, it can be added to a compost pile.
