"I recently had artificial turf installed in my back yard by Intelliturf. It looks amazing!! Because of very large trees and very little sun I could never have grass in my back yard. The turf is perfect, very easy to maintain. Jeff and his crew were professional, hardworking and always pleasant."

"I would definitely hire again without hesitation. John was very professional, and very prompt. I inherited my neighbors leaves, had several hostas that needed cleaning up, over grown perennials and 2 difficult areas I wasn't able to do. Had to leave for a few hours, when I got back I was amazed how great the yard looked. Didn't fine 1 leaf on the ground, the price was very reasonable compared what I paid the last 2 times. I highly recommend hiring this company for your yard clean up. You will be as pleased as I am. Thank you John for a job well done."

"The best money we've spent on our home outside - went from overgrown & overwhelming - to a magazine cover. A true transformation. I now understand all the 5star reviews - he works all jobs himself, w/ a little help from immediate family (no crew). He loves what he does, takes the time to do things right, listens / checks-in to be sure we are happy with decisions along the way. I went with every suggestion made. Eventually, I gave full reign with a 'surprise me' response to his suggestions :-). I would trust him to do any landscaping job. Would recommend to my mother! I now LOVE pulling into our driveway now - looks stunning!"

"Flowers Garden Services did a fine job cleaning our gutters. Marisol and Oscar, the owners, showed up right away, gave us a fair quote, and returned in two days to do the job. I will use them again for gutter cleaning and other household services they perform."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

Yes, backyard landscaping and total-home landscaping add value to your home. According to the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), high-quality landscape design has a 20 to 30 percent return on investment. So, when it comes time to sell your home, having a beautiful backyard landscaping oasis will increase your home’s value. 

You should avoid planting grass, shrubs, plants, and trees in freezing temperatures, as the ground can get frozen and become too hard for proper root growth. It’s best to plant in the fall to allow your plants to establish root systems before the first frost. Landscaping when the average temperature in your area is between 50 and 60 degrees will usually deliver the best results.

Landscape design can be a simple service that includes a drawing or visual representation of how your yard can be set up and optimized for your intended purposes. But it can also include all of the manual labor to make your vision a reality. When you speak with your landscape designer, ensure everyone understands the specific services you want. Some add-on services may include the following:

  • Sourcing and delivery of raw materials

  • Professional installation of features, including pergolas, decks, and pathways

  • Drainage system design

  • Recommendations for specific plants and trees

If you use the wrong plants for your gardening zone, you’ll likely get less than desirable yields from them. In some cases, your plants can even die. It’s important to ensure that your plants are able to survive in your hardiness zone before getting them into the ground.
