As one of the leading landscapers in the area of Millis MA we offer landscape services, maintenance, pruning, snow plotting.

"This organization was extremely unprofessional to work with and they take advantage of elderly people . I hired Florianos to do snow removal for my parents . When I hired them we agreed he would come for 6 inches or more of snow . Today he showed up at my parents house and tried to get them to pay for snow removal of 2-3 inches. Additionally we were originally quoted 70.00 and then when I received the bill it was 75.00. Today when they showed up to plow 2-3 inches the driveway was already snow blowed by my dad and Florianos yelled at my dad stating that he was supposed to plow and that he was going to be charged anyway . We were also never provided a written quote as we requested before any snow removal began . This organization is unethical , disorganized and disrespectful ."

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

Despite being moderately high-maintenance, St. Augustine grass is popular for several reasons. The biggest properties that make this grass a winner for southeastern lawns include its salt, heat, humidity, and shade tolerance. This grass species is excellent for coastal regions with high humidity, mild winters, and salty skies. It’s also easy to establish in yards.

Fast-track your seeds to success by pre-soaking them for 24 hours in a shallow container filled with tap water. The water will penetrate the husk and moisten the embryos inside. After one day of soaking, sow the seeds in the soil. Never soak the seeds for more than one day (unless the specific variety calls for longer), as prolonged soaking could cause them to rot.

The most effective way to eliminate quack grass without killing the grass nearby is to overseed the area, keep the seed wet until it grows, mow often, and regularly fertilize the area to promote healthy grass that can choke out the invasive weed.

Planting grass from seed requires time to grow before it can handle even light foot traffic. Most varieties require a minimum of three months before you can walk on them regularly. You can expect to wait at least one year before your lawn can hold up to heavy use. Because sod is already established, it can be walked on more quickly than grass planted from seed.

At its core, soil pH is a measure of how many hydrogen ions are present in your soil. In highly acidic soil (low pH), plant growth is difficult due to reduced microbial availability in the dirt.

In highly alkaline soil, plants may struggle to grow due to iron deficiencies. In either case, a lack of balance deprives grass or plants of some key nutrients they need to grow.

A pH reading of 6 to 7.5 is ideal for most plants. Slight acidity is, generally speaking, less of an issue than slight alkalinity. Many plants can still thrive in slightly acidic soil.
