Q: Can you hydroseed with a garden hose?

• <div><p>Yes, you can hydroseed with a garden hose, but you&rsquo;ll need a tank or other large vessel for mixing the slurry, then a pump to send the slurry through the hose for spraying. Making your own hydroseeding unit can work, but it&rsquo;s not usually worth the effort and supplies unless you already have them.</p></div>

Q: What can I plant over my septic leach field?

• <div><p>Grass is the most popular and safest option for planting over a septic drain field, but you can also plant small flowering plants and other lightweight plants that don&rsquo;t have woody or deep roots. Avoid trees and bushes within 10 feet of the field, as the woody roots can crack the perforated pipes. You should also avoid planting vegetable or fruit gardens over your drain field, as a leak from the pipes could contaminate the soil and put anyone who eats the produce at risk.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: Will foundation planting affect the drainage around my home?

• <div><p>As with anything you do near your foundation, you&rsquo;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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-foundation-repair-cost.htm">foundation repair costs</a>.</p></div>

Q: What does a xeriscaped lawn look like?

• <div><p>Xeriscaped lawns are far more varied than many gardeners initially assume. The often-pictured rocky and cacti-filled landscapes are just one option. Many wildflower-, herb-, and mulch-covered landscapes follow the same principles without straying too far from the lush and colorful landscapes we have come to know. In fact, there are numerous <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/beyond-xeriscaping-how-create-low-water-landscape-design-your-yard.htm">xeriscape ideas</a> for customizing an energy-efficient lawn to your liking.</p></div>

Q: How long does it typically take to complete a lakefront landscaping project?

• <div><p>The duration of a lakefront landscaping project is determined by its scope, environmental conditions, and weather impacts. It often takes several weeks to a few months to complete.</p></div>

The quality is very good so far but it is still in the first year of growing. I am not impressed with the growth of the grass but the deck and patio look great. Their price is high and they came in over budget. I have not yet determined if the quality of their work is worth the cost; I will...

I used Smith Massman Landscape and Design because of the feedback from Angie's List. They're the only landscaping service that I ever hired, I don't have a good point of reference.

What I liked about them is that they were very prompt in coming out and were very professional. We had a retaining wall that is going to be torn down and replaced and then they were going to take the limestones from the retaining wall they tore down and basically recycle that and use it for...
