"This was the single most satisfactory experience I have ever had with a service company and provider. Emmanuel was punctual, clearly a master of his art (landscaping), fair and thorough. He pruned trees and bushes, clearing debris from weeks of neglect. He then tackled a problem I was having with flooding. Every time it rained, my garage would flood, due to clogged drainage pipes and the poorly graded alleyway behind my house. Emmanuel spotted, diagnosed and repaired the problem, almost instantly. Emmanuel was clear about what needed to be done. He told me what was needed and accurately predicted what the cost for materials and labor would be. He was truly professional and I recommend him without reservation."

"LA Landscape Sprinkler Pros came out the same day I called about a busted sprinkler valve that was flooding my yard. Erix was quick, clean, and explained everything he was doing in plain English, no BS. Pricing was super fair, and the work was grade A. I’ve already saved his number for the next time I need anything in the yard fixed. Highly recommend!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

In most cases, wait three to five days to repot or relocate a plant from a greenhouse or nursery. That way, your plant has time to recover from any shock during the move and adapt to the conditions in and around your home. Some hearty plants may not need as long, and delicate plants might need several weeks. You should ask the professional at your nursery for a recommended timeline. Consider asking about an initial watering schedule to help stimulate root growth and promote a healthy plant.

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.

A half inch above ground level is ideal for metal edging. This provides enough depth for the edging to hold in place and enough height to keep in most landscaping materials (like mulch or gravel). If you install edging too high off the ground, it will stand out from your landscaping and pose a tripping risk. If you install it too low, your ground cover won’t stay in place.

Landscape design can be a simple service that includes a drawing or visual representation of how your yard can be set up and optimized for your intended purposes. But it can also include all of the manual labor to make your vision a reality. When you speak with your landscape designer, ensure everyone understands the specific services you want. Some add-on services may include the following:

  • Sourcing and delivery of raw materials

  • Professional installation of features, including pergolas, decks, and pathways

  • Drainage system design

  • Recommendations for specific plants and trees

Yes, it is possible to add too little mulch. Anything less than 1 inch will likely result in too little coverage around your plants, allowing weeds to grow through and minimizing the positive effects that a deeper bed of mulch would have, like maintaining proper soil moisture and insulating the ground.
