"I had my front & back yard landscaped also had electrical outside lights installed in the front and back yard. At night everything looks so beautiful. Workers were nice & very hard workers, Rickie ( owner) was on site most of the time overseeing workmanship & progress. Clean up was great. I would highly recommend Southern Oak Landscaping. I would give them 1 out of 10, 10 for sure. Thank you Southern Oaks. My neighbors love the new look too."

"Great job redoing some of our outdoor lighting. They moved several lights, raised a number of lights above the landscaping and added several that really enhanced the look in the evening. Also cleaned and serviced all the lights. Looks just like new again. Excellent job ecommending several changes that turned out just right. Highly recommend!"

"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."

"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!!!"

"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

Multiple rules of thumb exist when discussing tree planting. When planting a tree, the best rule of thumb is to provide it with everything it needs to survive and thrive in its new environment. That may mean learning about the type of tree you're planting and studying the best methods of taking care of it before purchasing and planting. 

The average cost for landscaping is around $3,500, but prices can range from as low as $200 for simple DIY projects to $14,000 or more for extensive work. Several factors influence the final price, including your geographic location, yard size, project scope, chosen materials, site preparation, and the type of landscaping involved. Professional landscaper labor costs typically range from $50 to $100 per hour.

For a smaller budget, you can focus on softscaping projects like adding mulch, flowers, and shrubs, which might only cost a few hundred dollars if you do the work yourself. A budget of around $5,000 could cover projects like a simple patio, new plants and tree trimming, or a water feature. More extensive hardscaping projects, such as pergolas, patios, and walkways, can push the budget to $14,000 or more. For example, a flower bed installation averages between $800 and $3,000, while landscape lighting installation can cost from $2,000 to $6,000.

You should use mulch because it protects garden soil in a few key ways. This extra layer between the ground and the elements protects against erosion, helps your soil maintain moisture, regulates changes in temperature, adds nutrients as it decomposes, and keeps weeds at bay.

Many ways to landscape a steep slope on a budget exist. Avoiding expensive retaining wall construction is the first step. Consider creating a rocky slope with boulders or large stones, or think about planting perennials that return every year with a single investment. Transplanting small trees from elsewhere on your property is also possible and can help to stabilize steep slopes without purchasing new ones. 

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.
