"Trysen is very knowledgeable; he came out and gave us a free quote for my 1/2 acre project. His team worked flawlessly to get the cinder soil down and level, and applying the hydroseed for the lawn. His team made sure to protect my driveway from the heavy trucks on delivery of the soil and afterward cleaning up driveway and surrounding areas. Elite Landscaping has great customer service (Kimrah!) and are very attentive to our questions and needs. I would highly recommend Elite for all landscaping needs. P.S. 9 days from hydroseeding and the grass is sprouting…! 👍🏼"

"If you need great service and easy to schedule then give Hilinaâ i Yard service a call. We just moved into our home after months of unkept yard service. We got some quotes and was impressed that Justin could do an initial yard service the next day! I told him what I wanted done and the crew turned my yard into masterpiece. I received complements for the yard maintenance! So happy!"

"We want to take this opportunity to Mahalo Dominic of ʻKaʻū Tree Care’ for the excellent service your company provides. It can be difficult finding landscapers/land tenders who are hard working reliable, trustworthy, and consistent with follow through. Who are also exemplify knowledgeable, safe, regenerative and pono practices rooted in land stewardship for an abundant healthy future. No poisoning, demolishing of ecosystems or killing soil health for generations. Kaʻū Tree Care was able to offer place and plant base knowledge and design ideas/ suggestions that were terrific for our short term goals and long term needs. Dominic worked with us in regards to our budget, limited time (and knowledge) for upkeep. Dominic made everything easy and understandable. We very much appreciate his clear, concise communication and customer service. The level of respect and courteousness to his clients and the land itself was a level of professionalism greatly appreciated and spoke volumes to his character. We were very impressed by the level of maturity and pride in Dominic’s work. His attention to detail, integrity, passion, dedication and skill are unmatched. Mahalo Dominic and the Kaʻū Tree Care Crew - Misty Mountain Homestead"

"What a great experience. My yard was a massive project. 5 acres of borderline jungle and grass that was 8 feet high. Tyrone and his team got this done in 2 days. He responded immediately to my Inquiry and was able to get me on the schedule quickly and at a reasonable price, considering the scale if the project. I plan on using him again as a develop my land."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

You should use mulch because it protects garden soil in a few key ways. This extra layer between the ground and the elements protects against erosion, helps your soil maintain moisture, regulates changes in temperature, adds nutrients as it decomposes, and keeps weeds at bay.

Many people have used old tires in gardens as raised beds, planters, tree rings, and DIY decor. However, these uses are not recommended due to the toxicity of many of the chemicals used to manufacture tires. These chemicals can leach into the soil and water as the tire breaks down, creating environmental pollution and health hazards for gardeners and their families.

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.

The most important thing to put under a rock garden is the appropriate soil. The specific soil needed will depend on the type of plants you’re growing as well as the environment you live in. You can also put non-woven or woven fabric under the rocks to add to the garden's structural stability.
