"Bosley Enterprises is a top-notch company! They take care of ALL of our lawn needs and do so much more! Larry, Landis and Tom take pride in what they do and have been a blessing to work with. We've had everything done from cutting back our crepe myrtles, providing and spreading pine needles and wood chips, They've removed old shrubs and replaced with new ones we purchased. They even clean gutters. I know they provide so many services and at reasonable prices. They're very reliable and professional. I highly recommend Bosley Enterprises for all your lawn care and landscaping needs!"

"Mr. Santos came out to the house to look at several landscaping projects that I had going on. He provided a competitive quote for the entire project and he offered to help me remove some branches off a tree in the front yard on the spot. He pruned the dead part of the tree and nicely stacked up the sticks and limb for the city to pick up. Very kind gentlemen and I plan to hire him again."

"Pedro and his team did an outstanding job for our new home. The seed and straw were not growing in our yard that the builder landscaper put down. Pedro came out to discuss the job and what we would like done. They shared recommendations to make it better and sent us the estimate. They were able to install the specific new sod we were hoping for rather quickly, and then followed-up a week later by defining our plant beds around the entire house and refreshing the pine needles. They were very responsive and I appreciated their support. I highly recommend Pedro and his team. Thanks for beautifying our new home!!"

"Tommy went above-and-beyond to repair the edge course of pavers on my back patio that were coming loose. Some things I appreciated: First, he took the time to remove the edge pavers and clean off all the old construction adhesive (which is difficult and tedious work!). He poured a formed concrete foundation to create a superior longer-lasting foundation for the edge pavers where foot traffic would be the highest and he also applied a hidden layer of concrete under all the other cantilevered edge pavers to prevent future loosening. He reset the pavers in mortar instead of using construction adhesive (which is a superior technique) and meticulously fill all the gaps with polymeric sand. Pricing was very reasonable and great value for the level of detail and craftmanship I received. The end product looks perfect and will last a long time. Tommy is professional is highly experienced (15 years as of 2026) and takes pride in his workmanship. I would definately recommend him."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Most experts recommend a quarter-inch layer of compost for best results, and you will need about .77 cubic yards of material per 1,000 square feet. To measure how much compost to use, take the square footage of your yard and multiply it by .77, then divide that number by 1,000.

A half inch above ground level is ideal for metal edging. This provides enough depth for the edging to hold in place and enough height to keep in most landscaping materials (like mulch or gravel). If you install edging too high off the ground, it will stand out from your landscaping and pose a tripping risk. If you install it too low, your ground cover won’t stay in place.

Yes, you can absolutely transplant bushes instead of removing them completely. The success depends on the size of the bushes, their age, and the transplanting season. Ideally, transplant during the dormant season (late fall or winter). Dig out the entire root system in one piece, fill the new hole with fresh soil and mulch, and water thoroughly after planting.

The best time to plant a tree is in the spring, so the roots have time to grow into the surrounding soil before winter sets in. Some people recommend planting in the late fall. However, planting in the spring reduces the stress on the tree, as it will be emerging from dormancy, giving it the full spring and summer ahead to acclimate and put down roots into the soil.

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.
