"Alex responded immediately to an urgent situation of an overgrown yard. He did an amazing amount of work in a short amount of time. He arrived exactly when he said he would (keeping me posted in a timely manner). He was courteous and professional. Lawn looked like a million dollars when he was done. I recommend him wholeheartedly. I will continue to use him for regular maintenance and planting in the future."

"We recently hired Kevin and his crew for a springtime cleanup and to install stone in our flower beds, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. They quoted a fantastic price, arrived on time, and were friendly, professional, and knowledgeable throughout the entire job. The flower beds look absolutely beautiful with the river rock—it really transformed the whole appearance of our yard. Everything was cleaned up nicely and completed with great attention to detail. Highly recommend Kevin and his crew for anyone looking for quality landscaping work!"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

Monkey grass isn’t too picky when it comes to light conditions: It needs sun but prefers partial shade. While it can tolerate full sun, it thrives in environments with partial shade (around four to six hours of sunlight per day). The black mondo grass variety is the most tolerant of heat from direct sunlight.

If you choose to leave gaps between your pavers, you can grow some ground cover plants between them for an organic feel. Look for plants such as creeping thyme, dymondia, jewel mint of Corsica, or clover.

In most cases, wait three to five days to repot or relocate a plant from a greenhouse or nursery. That way, your plant has time to recover from any shock during the move and adapt to the conditions in and around your home. Some hearty plants may not need as long, and delicate plants might need several weeks. You should ask the professional at your nursery for a recommended timeline. Consider asking about an initial watering schedule to help stimulate root growth and promote a healthy plant.

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.

Lakefront landscaping offers benefits such as enhancing aesthetic appeal, increasing property value, supporting ecological balance, and providing recreational opportunities while preserving the shoreline's natural beauty.
