"Tim was great! He came to our house prior to hiring them to do a landscape lighting demo. He placed demo lights around the house to show us how it would look. We worked together to figure out where the lights would look the best. We found Tim to be reliable, honest and dependable. We are happy with the job he did and would hire him again."

"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."

"Jose and his crew did an excellent job of demolishing and then filling in our in-ground pool. They landscaped the area to blend with surrounding yard. They were very professional, great customer service, and value for our money. We would highly recommend them."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

If you’re hiring a landscaper to plant the garden of your dreams, you do not need to provide them with plants that you bought yourself from a nursery. While you certainly can provide your landscaper with plants, keep in mind that some nurseries provide discounts to landscaping companies, therefore potentially lowering your materials cost. Beyond the cost of the plants themselves, you need to have additional materials like topsoil and mulch for the project. Most likely, your landscaper can get a discount on these materials as well, so it’s worth speaking with them before making any large purchases.

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.

You may need to lay sod on the areas you dug up once you get the okay from the contractor. It will take about 30 to 45 days for the sod to take root. Consult a local sod installer to get an accurate estimate of the timeline of your specific yard-enhancement project.

You'll likely need more than great home staging to sell your home. Now is a great time to get to work on the curb appeal of your home . Hire local exterior painters and landscapers to coat the exterior of your home and bring it new life with some sprucing up.
