"10 Stars should be the rating for AAA Landscaping. Bob and I thank Jonathan, Miguel, Yolanda and their team for the most outstanding landscaping we have ever had done. We have been in our home for 49 years, married for 59 years and have dealt with many companies over the years. This wonderful family exceeded our expectations and treated Our property as if it were there’s. Our project was huge with major landscaping done in our front yard, back yard and side yard. Jonathan and his team were on time each day, worked non-stop (I had to make them stop for a break), were professional , patient, approachable, artistic, meticulous and took so much time making sure everything was just right. Friends and neighbors cannot believe the transformation and how our yards look. Our home is “The Talk of the Town.” We highly recommend AAA Landscaping. Actually, as far as we are concerned you do not have to look elsewhere because you will not be disappointed."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

The best way to landscape your front yard on a budget is to invest in hiring a professional for hardscaping—things like upgrading walkways, redoing driveways, and installing partitions around garden beds. You can often do the softscaping yourself—think laying down mulch, caring for your lawn, removing weeds, and planting flowers and shrubs. It’s also almost always worthwhile to pay a professional for routine yard maintenance, as this dramatically improves curb appeal and delivers above 100% ROI in most cases.

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.

If you’re hiring a landscaper to plant the garden of your dreams, you do not need to provide them with plants that you bought yourself from a nursery. While you certainly can provide your landscaper with plants, keep in mind that some nurseries provide discounts to landscaping companies, therefore potentially lowering your materials cost. Beyond the cost of the plants themselves, you need to have additional materials like topsoil and mulch for the project. Most likely, your landscaper can get a discount on these materials as well, so it’s worth speaking with them before making any large purchases.

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.

Late August, September, and mid-October are the ideal months for planting a young tree. However, the best time to plant a tree ultimately depends on when the weather transitions to fall-like conditions and eventually winter frost. As long as the hottest days of summer have passed and the ground hasn’t frozen yet, you can still successfully plant trees.
