"Peter and crew did a wonderful job of transforming our front yard from blah to wow. We are so happy every time we look out our front window or drive up to our home. Peter was very easy to work with. He listened to what we wanted to do, made a few suggestions and came up with a couple of great ideas as the project progressed. They completed the job on time and also cleaned up after each day's work. We would use Green Hornet Landscaping again and would definitely recommend them."

Jose and crew arrived as discussed and did an excellent job in getting the yard back to normal. The performance and workmanship is 1st class. This is now my go to company for all of my landscaping and irrigation needs."

"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 !"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

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.

The primary disadvantages of xeriscaping are the high upfront cost and the significant labor required to establish it. A xeriscaping project can cost between $3,000 and $24,000 on average. Additionally, the resulting landscape will have less of a traditional green appearance, which may not appeal to everyone's personal taste and could potentially narrow your pool of buyers if you decide to sell your home. However, despite these initial drawbacks, the long-term benefits include saving water, time, and money on lawn maintenance.

The soil around your foundation should slope down and away from your home, not toward it. If the grading drops the farther you are from your home, you can enhance the slope by removing more soil. Mark off a few feet from your house and dig up some of this soil. Regrading around your fountain should encourage water to flow away from your home and not collect or “pond.”

A full backyard renovation can cost between $15,000 and $50,000, depending on the scope of the project. Excavation, materials, and labor costs all contribute to the final cost of updating your outdoor spaces, and expensive features like a pool, a fence, or hardscaping carry a high price tag.

A green home is one that focuses on conservation, with the goal often being net-zero carbon emissions and self-sustainability. It will often include some kind of self-generation equipment, like solar panels or a small wind turbine, high-efficiency electrical components and mechanicals, and high-quality insulation and air sealing to reduce the loss of conditioned air. Many green homes also include xeriscaping or rainwater collection to cut down on drainage and water consumption.
