Serving Robert, LA and surrounding areas

"Edward lawn service has helped me for many years. I don’t have to call this company because they keep a schedule of when they need to come back to cut your grass and etc. I would do it myself but it’s so much more convenient for me when they’re always on time. I trust this company so much until I don’t have to be around at my house when they have to come take care of my yard work. Edward lawn prices are unbeatable. So, if you need any landscaping, yard work, tree services and etc, Edward Lawn Service will be the right company to call. I would rate this service at high (5) star."

"Jacob was professional when we spoke about the project. I told him I wanted to remodel a 30 year old bathroom. He did not hesitate to get started. He was able to get started right away. His crew was very respectful and professional. They were able to get the old, metal tub and shower combo out with little difficulty. They then installed the new tub and tile surround. It turned out great."

FAQs for greenhouse and nursery service projects in Robert, LA

Buying plants from a nursery is one thing, but ensuring that they are properly planted is another. While you might not need to hire a landscaper for every plant that you buy from a nursery, it’s a great idea to have their expertise and experience to plant larger items, like burlapped trees or specialty plants like rose bushes. Even better, before making a trip to a nursery to buy new plants, consult a local landscaper to test your soil for pH levels, soil texture, and phosphorus and potassium levels to help determine the best plants for your area.

Garden nurseries offer many plants to make your home and garden flourish. In-container plants are one option, including perennials, annuals, and small shrubs or trees. Large hedge plants and roses are called bare-root plants, meaning they have not been potted. Finally, you will see some burlapped plants, typically larger trees and shrubs with burlap wrapping around the bottom.

The best time to plant is between spring and autumn. Springtime weather is typically mild and is when nurseries start to bloom. When the summer weather arrives and it’s hot out, it’s best to avoid planting bare-root plants, but you can still plant many in-container varieties. The first sign of fall is another great opportunity to plant biennials if you live in southern states, or a lovely vegetable garden up north.

If you’re hiring a landscaper to plant the garden of your dreams, you do not need to provide them with plants that you bought yourself from a nursery. While you certainly can provide your landscaper with plants, keep in mind that some nurseries provide discounts to landscaping companies, therefore potentially lowering your materials cost. Beyond the cost of the plants themselves, you need to have additional materials like topsoil and mulch for the project. Most likely, your landscaper can get a discount on these materials as well, so it’s worth speaking with them before making any large purchases.

While there are over 400,000 different flowering plants worldwide, there are five main types of flowers. These flower types are based on their lifecycles, giving each type a unique personality. These types are:

  • Annuals, which complete their entire life cycle within a single growing season. 

  • Perennials, which the tops die off in the winter but regrow in spring. 

  • Biennials, which complete their entire life cycle within two years.

  • Hybrids, which exhibit either annual or perennial behaviors depending on location

  • Flowering shrubs, which are small to medium-sized perennial woody plants, such as shrubs or evergreens.
