"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."

"Professional company. Project manager corroborated with me to insure my vision was satisfied! Crew went extra mile to relocate plants along with landscape lighting and irrigation. Expertise in all areas evident. Paver install and dust associated with cutting pavers minimized by pushing / blowing dust away from our existing outdoor areas. Great job Scottâ  s!"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

It depends. Smaller, younger trees take longer to mature, but they're more resilient, their roots don't get as damaged during transplanting, and they recover faster. Plus, they're much more affordable to plant, and it's possible to DIY the planting. 

On the other hand, mature trees produce fruit faster and provide more shade and privacy immediately. Ideally, a small or medium tree is the better choice if you can wait a few years for it to mature. But if you need immediate maturity, a larger tree is the only option.

You should use mulch because it protects garden soil in a few key ways. This extra layer between the ground and the elements protects against erosion, helps your soil maintain moisture, regulates changes in temperature, adds nutrients as it decomposes, and keeps weeds at bay.

Environmental considerations include native plant selection, wildlife habitation, erosion prevention measures, and managing water runoff patterns to protect the lakefront ecosystem.

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.

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.
