"Excellent customer service and very good follow up which I appreciated. We had landscape cleanup completed and cleaning of 40+ palm trees in the yard. The team did a great job and took pride in their work. I plan to have them return to assist further in the near future."

"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."

"We had added a fountain to the front yard landscape and hired Kyle to re-landscape the entire plant bed across the entire front of the house to tie in the fountain. He did an excellent job after giving us a few choices of different plants we went with his suggestions. We have the nicest looking front yard on the street now."

"Charles and his crew were excellent to work with from start to finish. Charles listened to our wants and made our dream yard for us. He updated daily of their accomplishments and we knew what to expect each day moving forward. He worked on our project as it was his own, with great attention to detail. I would highly recommend Backyard Birdies!!!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Many people have used old tires in gardens as raised beds, planters, tree rings, and DIY decor. However, these uses are not recommended due to the toxicity of many of the chemicals used to manufacture tires. These chemicals can leach into the soil and water as the tire breaks down, creating environmental pollution and health hazards for gardeners and their families.

Most bamboo can send roots down two to three feet into the ground. However, when stopping bamboo from spreading, the focus is on the runner roots or rhizomes. These roots are much shallower, staying 12 inches or less from the surface, so they’re easier to find and remove. But if you want to remove the bamboo entirely, you’ll have to dig out the full root system.

Finding a reputable greenhouse or nursery should start online, where you can read through customer reviews to gauge the quality of the plants sold and the customer experience. Look out for customers complaining about plants dying shortly after purchase, and try to choose a greenhouse known for hiring employees who are able to explain how to care for the plants you purchase. It’s also a good idea to head to a few greenhouses to see the selection they offer and make sure they carry the plants or trees you’re looking for.

While there are over 400,000 different flowering plants worldwide, there are five main types of flowers. These flower types are based on their lifecycles, giving each type a unique personality. These types are:

  • Annuals, which complete their entire life cycle within a single growing season. 

  • Perennials, which the tops die off in the winter but regrow in spring. 

  • Biennials, which complete their entire life cycle within two years.

  • Hybrids, which exhibit either annual or perennial behaviors depending on location

  • Flowering shrubs, which are small to medium-sized perennial woody plants, such as shrubs or evergreens.

If you choose to leave gaps between your pavers, you can grow some ground cover plants between them for an organic feel. Look for plants such as creeping thyme, dymondia, jewel mint of Corsica, or clover.
