"I have had Jackie / Herbal Thymes help me with my landscaping for a number of years. I have appreciated Jackie’s clear passion for the work she does and her expertise in suggesting the best plants to put in different areas so that they thrive and add interest to the landscape. She knows how to combine different plants so that there is color and contrast throughout the year. She has suggested both bigger projects and more modest adjustments I could make to improve my property, allowing me to decide based on my objectives at the time. She has done an excellent job on both Spring and Fall cleanups and touch ups in between. Most recently, she worked on my property as I was preparing to put my home up for sale. She did a wonderful job and I have received many positive comments about my beautiful landscaping from people viewing my home. Jackie and her team are a pleasure to work with!!! I highly recommend Jackie / Herbal Thymes to anyone who wants to work with great people to create a beautifully landscaped property."

"I've been a licensed contractor for over 30 years with a 5-star rating myself, so I rarely take the time to write reviews unless it's flawless work. Height Control gave me a 10-star service from start to finish. Brain was as professional as they come. Without blinking an eye with the add on that I requested thru out my project; he never gave an unreasonable price for any of the work but most importantly didn't overextend the timeframe. His crew came out and did a exceptional job in a timely fashion. We ordered a massive natural 6ft stone step for our front porch which three other companies estimated that it couldn't be done due to the concrete foundation having the potential to crack. His crew came out and laid it without any incident. I highly recommend Height Control for ALL your landscaping needs. I promise you they will not disappoint!!

"I contacted Browning Family Landscaping to get a quote on a complete redo of my front yard. They were quick to respond to my inquiry and came out the next day to give me an estimate. He wrote a quote on the spot and was actually able to complete the job THAT DAY! My yard looks amazing. Mr Browning was kind and respectful. He really listened to what we wanted. I highly recommend them."

"GreenTHUMB Lawn & Landscaping went beyond what I expected by removing more than ten, of hundreds of year old tree stumps from trees I had cut down allowing our family to finally enjoy the beautiful space we have. The owner listen to my vision of what I wanted to see and i love my new graded backyard and new fire pit my best friend can now run and play safely on level ground, I no longer have to look at a crumbling concrete porch. I will be contacting Dalton when ready for the next phase of my project. I would recommend GreenTHUMB Lawn Landscaping for your next project I will."

"John Little and his crew were awesome! The project took about 90 minutes. They removed all leaves and debris and hauled such away (since my community last day for yard waste removal had passed). I was very pleased with there work and will seek their services again."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Plant privet hedges at least 1 foot apart in a trench about 2 feet wide and 2 feet deep. It’s important to space privet hedges relatively far apart due to how quickly they grow to significant sizes and heights. You don’t want to crowd privet plants, or they could overcrowd each other, causing unwanted damage.

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.

Plant a peach tree right at the end of your local dormancy period, likely at the very end of winter after the last frost when you can dig into the soft soil. Plan your backyard gardening season, including when planting peach trees, based on the frost schedule predicted in your local hardiness zone.

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.

Other projects that you can do at the same time as your trellis include painting the deck , installing a pergola, or adding mulch to your garden beds.
