"If you want a crew that shows up, gets the job done right the first time, and makes your ranch look like it belongs on the cover of Western Horseman, look no further than R&R Fenco Co. Ryan Russell runs a top-notch operation that takes agricultural fencing and ranch clean-up to the next level. I’ve worked with plenty of outfits over the years, but what sets Ryan apart is his mix of old-school work ethic and modern know-how. His team doesn’t just pound posts and string wire—they build fences that last. Gates swing smooth, corners are braced like a tank, and the wire is tight enough to make a coyote think twice about sneaking through. On the ranch-clean-up side, Ryan is just as impressive. Brush piles, old scrap, downed wire, busted panels—gone. He and his crew leave a place cleaner than they found it, and you can actually see the difference when you ride out the next morning. Best part? Ryan’s straight-shooting, fair on price, and takes pride in doing it right."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is possible to add too little mulch. Anything less than 1 inch will likely result in too little coverage around your plants, allowing weeds to grow through and minimizing the positive effects that a deeper bed of mulch would have, like maintaining proper soil moisture and insulating the ground.

Consulting your local university extension, Audubon society, or municipal urban forestry program are all good ideas when choosing a tree to plant. You can also ask an arborist or a knowledgeable landscaping company for advice on good trees to plant.

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.

Monkey grass makes a beautiful, low-maintenance ground cover, particularly in shadier areas where other grasses don’t receive enough sunlight to grow. It’s also excellent for edging walkways, bordering flower beds, and accenting rock gardens. You can grow it as a container plant, as well, which is a perfect solution for those who love its foliage but want to contain the spread.

While both fall and spring are suitable times of the year for planting trees, fall is typically the better option. Soil stays warm long enough to allow tree roots to establish in fall before they go dormant, while spring might give way to intense summer heat before spring-planted trees have time to grow strong roots.
