"Working with Ken was a great experience. He promptly answered my call for an estimate on a dry creek bed to meet erosion concerns in my yard. The work was done quickly and at a fair cost to my complete satisfaction. I will be calling him again for future landscape projects. Highly recommend."

"They were fabulous! I hired to clean up the backyard and build a little pond out back. In addition to the backyard, they trimmed up my bushes all around the house and placed pine straw and mulch around the property. It looked really clean and professional. I would definitely recommend these guys; super friendly and efficient :)"

"Elijah and Jack came out to do an estimate on repairs for the outdoor landscape for the house we bought about 5 months ago. They were great about explaining everything going on with our 12 year old lighting system and we made the choice to hire them for a full replacement (to the new low voltage LED). Elijah called ahead on the day of installation to say they were on the way. Once they arrived they went over the details with me and then went to get supplies. I was actually suffering from a virus that day and was in the bed and they texted me to find out if I needed anything while they were out. They did a fantastic job for us. They are great with communication and bring prompt. I would highly recommend them!"

"Virgil and his employees took over a project another vendor had completed and turned a negative experience into an exceptional project and experience for me. I wished I would have hired Virgil from the beginning. He was professional, trustworthy, reliable, and all I could have hoped for, as I was trying to manage the project from out of state. Virgil took this responsibility off of my plate and even secured the permits needed for the project, going over and above my expectations and exhibiting exceptional customer service. Virgil cleared land for my site, leveled ground, placed a mobile home, secured a mobile home, created drainage on the lot, and placed the home on the lot appropriately, to preserve the existing trees as much as possible. He also laid gravel for the driveway and completed all plumbing for the property. I give Virgil and his business my highest recommendation, as Virgil is trustworthy, dependable, and an all-around exceptional person to do business with. The value of the services he provided was exceptional in every way. Tom March 2023"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

Landscape design can be a simple service that includes a drawing or visual representation of how your yard can be set up and optimized for your intended purposes. But it can also include all of the manual labor to make your vision a reality. When you speak with your landscape designer, ensure everyone understands the specific services you want. Some add-on services may include the following:

  • Sourcing and delivery of raw materials

  • Professional installation of features, including pergolas, decks, and pathways

  • Drainage system design

  • Recommendations for specific plants and trees

In most cases, buying plants from a local greenhouse or nursery is well worth the investment, even though they tend to be a bit more expensive than those at a home improvement store. Employees at nurseries are usually well-versed in gardening and understand how the climate in your area affects different plants. They can help you make selections based on your skill level and time commitment to your landscaping, and they can provide detailed care instructions and advice to help keep your plants alive and diagnose and treat issues like pest infestation and illness.

In most cases, wait three to five days to repot or relocate a plant from a greenhouse or nursery. That way, your plant has time to recover from any shock during the move and adapt to the conditions in and around your home. Some hearty plants may not need as long, and delicate plants might need several weeks. You should ask the professional at your nursery for a recommended timeline. Consider asking about an initial watering schedule to help stimulate root growth and promote a healthy plant.

Late August, September, and mid-October are the ideal months for planting a young tree. However, the best time to plant a tree ultimately depends on when the weather transitions to fall-like conditions and eventually winter frost. As long as the hottest days of summer have passed and the ground hasn’t frozen yet, you can still successfully plant trees.

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.
