"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."

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 FAQs, answered by experts

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.

A window flower box should be deep enough that there’s room for a wide selection of plants and the required amount of soil and gravel. Standard flower boxes are 8 inches deep and 8 inches from front to back. Larger is better to increase the variety of plants in the box, but you could run into stability issues as it increases in weight.

If shade is a priority for you, then panting elm trees is a fine choice. A full mature elm tree has enough aesthetic appeal for some folks that it could add value to your home. 

That said, never plant elm trees too close to your home, sewer line, or sidewalks, as their roots can damage these, which can lead to costly repairs.

As with anything you do near your foundation, you’ll want to ensure proper drainage when you plant your foundation beds. Your drainage should run downhill from the highest point against your foundation to avoid water intrusion and incurring expensive foundation repair costs.
