"After the satisfactory planning and installation of landscaping for the back of our home, with promised follow- through, we hired Ricky and his crew again to design and install new landscaping for the front of our home. We made some modifications to the original plan, and are VERY pleased with the results. He knows his plants! In addition to planting, Ricky paid attention to the health of the soil, irrigation, drainage, and edging the beds. We highly recommend Southern Oak Landscaping."

"Lush Landscapes of Southwest Florida, led by Ryan, did an absolutely incredible job restoring our backyard. After our pool construction left the yard in complete shambles for months?with nothing but dirt and weeds to look at?Ryan stepped in and transformed everything. He handled our irrigation, filled and leveled the entire yard, and installed a beautiful new landscape that truly brought my vision to life. His attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond exceeded every expectation we had. I highly recommend Ryan and Lush Landscapes of Southwest Florida for any landscaping project. You won?t regret trusting them with your home."

I would highly recommend Backyard Birdies!!!"

"After our pool was installed, I hired Jeff and his crew to landscape. Since I am not a professional landscaper, I left it up to him to design. Jeff managed to make our back and side yard look like new within our budget. He has even helped us maintain by repairing a couple of plants that did not make it I sent him a photo, he replaced it. I highly recommend Tidewater landscape"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

If you live in an area with heavy rain or you like the idea of an extra layer of cushion under your feet, you may want to consider adding additional layers under your grass. There are pads that are purely for comfort and ones that can help accelerate drainage for those heavy rains.

The best time to plant a privet hedge is autumn, ideally October or early November. Fall is the best time to plant privet hedges because young plants need plenty of water to jump-start their growth, and it typically rains more during this season. However, you can also successfully plant privets in the spring.

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.

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.

Professional lakefront landscaping addresses environmental factors such as water level fluctuations, erosion control, and native plant suitability. Regular maintenance includes pruning, fertilization, and ensuring drainage systems function well.
