I hired him to update the landscaping across the front and around the side of my house which involved pulling some plants, cleaning some plants of unwanted growth, cleaning the plant beds and installing new plants. Finally, putting down new mulch. I could not be more pleased."

"Wonderfully! MDA LAWN was extremely professional and thorough with their service! I've used them repeatedly on trimming, hedging and mowing. II needed a troublesome bush deeply rooted in my yard taken out and they were able to remove it in no time, and on an extremely quick turnaround time! Lifesavers! I've recommended them to friends and family because it's hard to find a service nowadays that doesn't cut corners !"
"When I reached out to Angis List on Tuesday , Mr Lopez was in my driveway B4 my phone stopped ringing from the other providers. We surveyed the job together , discussing what I wanted and what he would do. We agreed on a price in less than 10 minutes and set the appointment for Thursday of the same week. Mr Lopez reached out via text to re confirm and was here with his crew by 8a.m. Got right to work and left the area clean & tidy of debris. You cant even tell that any work was done except that the trees are gone!! :) De Leon Landscaping does it all....mulch/rock/sod...plants...yard cleanup and maintenance...tree and shrub trimming. Mr Lopez is the only yard man that you will ever need. Top notch service and work. Thank you again Mr Lopez and AngisList"
"I met with Steven from California Palms Landscaping to discuss my landscaping project. Just a few hours later I was sent a detailed and comprehensive quote for what my project would cost me, he even made suggestions that actually saved me money. His crew arrived on the date and time scheduled and did an OUTSTANDING job of converting my dried-out front lawn into a beautiful drought-tolerant and environmentally friendly landscape. They completed their work on time, on budget and cleaned up at the end of each dayâ s work. I definitely will use their services again; I have a backyard to rehabilitate!"
"A Game Land Services handled heavy palm tree trimming, extensive garden bed cleanup, and built a new brick landscape border. The team took their time with the details — the border has a smooth, well-defined finish that showcases their skill and craftsmanship. They finished everything off with decorative rock and suggested a few floral additions that tied the look together. Professional and thorough."
"Alberto and crew did yeoman’s duty cleaning up my friend’s yard in the aftermath if a major hurricane. Prompt/hardworking/precise. They delivered!! Trimmed trees/removed dead branches and all sorts if yard waste and debris. Can’t say enough good things!"
If you don’t like the way your empty drainage ditch looks, reach out to a local landscaping professional to discuss your options. They may be able to liven it up with plants, stones, bushes, or other decorative elements. You can also add your own landscaping, but you should first make sure that it won’t block your ditch or prevent it from operating effectively.
The best time to plant a tree is in the spring, so the roots have time to grow into the surrounding soil before winter sets in. Some people recommend planting in the late fall. However, planting in the spring reduces the stress on the tree, as it will be emerging from dormancy, giving it the full spring and summer ahead to acclimate and put down roots into the soil.
Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don’t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.
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.
While you can leave roots in the ground, if you don’t want the shrub to regrow again over time, it’s best not to leave any roots behind. Ensure you remove as much of the shrub as possible, including the root ball and any main roots you can see, to prevent new growth. Some gardeners opt for using a chemical treatment to prevent the stump from growing back, but this can kill beneficial microorganisms living in your soil.
