Maria came up with a fantastic design for our front yard and entrance way. The project was initiated and completed within two days. Mario Larios has the skill and talent to almost magically transform a mediocre front yard and entry into a lovely and inviting garden landscape/hardscape. She was present through most of the project and even hands-on with the planting and watering, as she supervised her hard-working crew. The job included removing all the old landscaping, preparing the soil, and planting new trees, shrubs, annuals,trimming two trees, and adding mulch. She savaged some plants and bricks from the front yard that were used in the back, and filled a large gaping hole on the back patio from an empty hot-tub installation seamlessly. The crew worked steadily during the hottest weather (99 degrees) throughout the entire two days making sure the new plants stayed healthy in the heat. We would highly recommend Lawncareplus design for anyone looking for landscape beautification at a very reasonable price from a very conscientious company owner, Maria Larios. We wish her company continued success.

We were initially attacted to Eddie's service because of the quality of the mulch we saw in our neighbor's planting beds -- yes, it was love at first mulch! In addition to the quality of Eddie's mulch (this year, we are using a new variety that is supposed to return to its dark, rich color after rain or watering - we're anxious to see how that goes), we appreciate that we can call Eddie's office and there is someone there to answer the phone and take a message or set up an appointment on Eddie's calendar. Eddie, of course, is out in the field. And just as we don't want him interrupted with calls when he's working with us, someone else doesn't want him taking our call when Eddie is working with them. We've had little problem with this communication method. So, Eddie's got envious mulch and someone to answer the phones. But he also has good design ideas - we've seen him progress in this area over the years - and his crew does good, solid, quality work. They work hard, and they do a fine job. Everyone smiles - especially when I (try to) speak Spanish to them. Yesterday, they checked with me frequently to make sure they were meeting expectations - how much did I want taken off of this tree, what they could do for that, where to place new items - it was like working with a good hairstylist! When Eddie brought a particular lilac that I was less fond of than another, he returned it and brought the one I preferred. Just as the thunder was starting at the end of a hot and humid day and the guys were completing their clean up, I returned home with 2 flats of wax begonias - which the guys promptly planted at my front door. This will be our first time having Eddie do any paver repair, but our expectations for a quality job are high.

"We had them redo a Frankenstein-esque back patio that came with the house, and added in a walkway to the side sidewalk and a new magnolia tree with a planter. The work took longer than either of us expected, but that is most likely due to their relatively small size. I don’t mind helping out small, local businesses, and these folks are certainly worthy. They did an excellent job and a reasonable price."

Plant Watering questions, answered by experts
Most home misters use several cups of water in a couple of minutes, or around a gallon per hour of use. That varies greatly depending on the size of the system and the power of the pump. If you are using professional services, you should ask about water use for your planned system when you’re getting an estimate. If you are using a water tank, make sure it’s filled before operation.
While they’re popular and have a lot of pros, the cons of river rocks include the following:
River rocks don’t break down or provide nutrients to plants.
These stones can get hot and scorch nearby plants.
River stones may heat the surrounding soil to inhospitable temperatures.
Rocks can block rainwater from seeping into the ground if installations are too thick or tightly packed.
Most downsides occur when using river rock as mulch in gardens and flower beds. However, you can still incorporate river rocks into your landscape as long as you use them in the correct ways.
Installing an outdoor water fountain costs$2,700 on average, not including the cost of the unit. Prices range from $150 to $10,650, depending on your location, the type of fountain, size, and accessibility to the site. Self-contained fountains and water features recirculate the water within the unit. Depending on size and features like multi-tiered cascading bowls, they typically cost from $50 to $5,000. More elaborate fountains with waterfalls and ponds can cost from $450 to $10,000 or more.
Backyard water features can add serenity to your property, drown out neighborhood noise, and serve as a focal point to a stunning landscape design. In some cases, a properly installed and maintained water feature can add to your home’s value. Just be sure to check with your insurance company before installation since some features may affect your premiums.
Water features enhance aesthetics, improve outdoor ambiance, and provide a soothing, tranquil atmosphere.
