"Tom and his team did a top notch job on my entire yard. This is the first time my experience with a landscaping company has been good. Tom helped with the selection of plants and offered ideas that I needed for design because I know nothing about plants or landscaping. He was very responsive and his crew was here everyday. They were fast and very professional. I am very happy with the results and he is the guy I’m calling when I need any landscaping done. See you next year Tom! (before & after photos below)"

"James from Metro Lawn Sprinklers & Landscapes "winterized" my Dad's lawn irrigation system on 11/8 in St. Peters. James showed up on time, conducted himself quite professionally and did a fantastic job. I was quite impressed with James AND the work that he did. I would definitely work with Metro Lawn Sprinklers & Landscapes and James again."

"This company is very easy to work with. A few years ago we had them put in walkway lighting. They offered to come in and set it up so that we could see how it would look and then they would come back and install more or differently depending on how we felt. I actually thought I wanted more lights but they told me I didn't need it. I appreciate they tried to keep the costs down. We've called them back recently to change the motion light on the back of our house. We already had a fixture there so they just needed to put in something different (~$250). Everything I was seeing at Home Depot got poor reviews and I was sick of changing lightbulbs. Daniel responded to my emails in a timely manner and always answered the phone when I called. But also, we were a few minutes late getting to the house and he was in the front fixing the lights (repositioning b/c we'd had landscaping done) they had installed a few years ago!! I was impressed with this."

"Miguel did the landscaping and clean-up for my front and back yards and he did an excellent job! He arrived on time and provided the shrubs and services we agreed upon and at the price we agreed to. My landscaping looks wonderful and I look forward to working with him again in the future!"

"Jonathan was very quick to respond to my inquiries when I reached out about my retaining wall. When he came to inspect the project he immediately got down to taking measurements from all sorts of angles and then went ahead to explain to me what all the steps of the work from start to finish complete with timelines and within 24 hrs too I had my quote, which was very affordable especially for the amount of work that was involved. Even at the planning stages I saw that he shared my vision of how I imagined my end product. They were working on another project, but managed to schedule my project within a week of my inquiries. They were very thoroughly meticulous in their work despite working in very hot summer weather and were done in no time. They left my driveway very tidy, even planted grass and lay some hay on top and did everything to leave my house looking seriously upgraded with their fabulous work that exceeded my expectations. I give them a solid 5 star rating because I cannot give them 10! High quality work by a very professional team at very affordable pricing! I highly recommend Buenemann Landscaping for all matters retaining walls and landscaping"

"Great! The crew was friendly and efficient. Tom is great at communicating in a timely manner and easy to work with. I am so excited about my new landscaping! I really wasn't sure how to rate the price because honestly, I didn't get other bids. I relied on previous reviews and the expectations I had regarding price. It wasn't cheap, but I wanted it done right and I feel like it was."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The truth is, there really is no such thing as a 100% deer-proof plant. Deer will decimate even the prickliest flora if they’re hungry enough. However, there are plenty of beautiful plants that deer don’t necessarily enjoy. These include thistles, wisteria vines, sword ferns, and beautyberries.

Deer are herbivores, and they love vegetable gardens as much as Peter Rabbit. If you don’t want to fence in your entire property, consider creating an attractive raised-bed veggie garden with mesh fencing around it to keep out deer and other critters.

Determining how many boulders you’ll need for your landscaping project depends on the area you need to cover and how big each boulder is. First, you’ll need to determine how big of an area you want covered, then divide that by the base surface area of the boulders. A landscape professional can help you determine how many boulders will be right for your project.

The best way to landscape your front yard on a budget is to invest in hiring a professional for hardscaping—things like upgrading walkways, redoing driveways, and installing partitions around garden beds. You can often do the softscaping yourself—think laying down mulch, caring for your lawn, removing weeds, and planting flowers and shrubs. It’s also almost always worthwhile to pay a professional for routine yard maintenance, as this dramatically improves curb appeal and delivers above 100% ROI in most cases.

The best type of rock for landscaping depends on your specific project and needs, as different rocks are suited for different applications. For covering large areas or creating an affordable driveway, consider gravel, but note that it can wash away in flowing water. For water features, river rocks are a good option. Flagstone and cobblestone are ideal for aesthetically pleasing patios and walkways. If you are building a stone wall, fieldstone or small boulders are up to the task. Large boulders and landscape rocks work well as statement pieces, to fill empty space, or to indicate boundaries, but be mindful that they can overwhelm smaller gardens. The best approach is to first define your landscaping project and then select the rock type that best fits that purpose.

A scattering of leaves won’t pose a problem through the winter, but a thicker layer of leaves may not decompose before the first frost and can instead weigh down your grass and harbor mold or fungi. A thick layer of leaves also cuts off light and air that grass needs to grow. That’s why we suggest removing thick leaf layers within several days if possible. If your lawn goes dormant over the winter and snow has already caught up with you, then remove the leaves in early spring before your grass-growing season starts so your lawn can thrive.
