"Southern Landscaping did an outstanding job mulching all the landscaping beds in and around our large condo community! Their team worked incredibly hard, completing the project quickly with excellent results. We're very happy with their efficient and high-quality work and would not hesitate to hire them again in the future. Lupe was extremely easy to work with and very responsive to our requests. Hire him!"

"Needed sod and pea gravel installed for our backyard. Also our existing sprinkler system was broken. Steven called and set up an appointment for a quote. He was courteous, professional, and on time. Other (pros?) from home advisor didn’t even call, or were late/no show for quotes. We hired Cali Palms and are very happy with the service, follow up, and overall experience. Steven did everything he said he’d do, and provided samples prior to installing. We had an issue with one sprinkler head, and he personally came out the next morning and fixed it. Project was done on time, price was fair, and it looks beautiful. I would definitely hire again!"

"They started today and did an excellent job. Great communication and good ideas. Our yard needs a lot of work and Stephen and his crew are very knowledgeable. I'm looking forward to seeing what the yard looks like after they finish, which will be a process. They will continue to maintain and take care of the yard, which will be very helpful and much needed. I find Stephen and his crew to be very trustworthy and honest, as well as reasonable for the work that needs to be done."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Yes, and in many cases, you should. Large gravel works best as a base layer because it improves drainage and keeps the surface stable. A top layer of smaller gravel fills in gaps and creates a smoother, more compacted surface. This combination is common in driveways and high-traffic areas where both stability and comfort matter.

You should exercise care when deciding how to landscape over a leach field for your septic system. You typically want lightweight materials that won’t damage the drain field’s perforated pipes. When adding plants to the area, select plants with shallow roots, such as grass or flower gardens. Trees with deep roots could damage the pipes in the field.

Sand is a common sublayer for hardscape features like driveways, paver patios, and more. Most projects that involve sand require a 1-inch layer to promote evenness, drainage, and weight distribution. For further drainage, most projects have a 6-inch minimum layer of gravel beneath the sand. 

Yes, you can put topsoil over sand to encourage grass growth. The topsoil will help to improve water retention and promote grass roots’ development, making it a recommended step of the seeding process. Adding a layer of topsoil will provide additional nutrients to the sandy soil, helping the grass grow and remain healthy through many seasons.

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.
