"Over the top service from Garden of Eva Landscaping! My front yard project was a small project but Rocky took the time to visit and listen to what my vision of what I wanted. He made suggestions that were positive and made sense. The project was completed in two days and Scott was great to work with, answering any questions and concerns I had. I definitely recommend Garden of Eva for your landscaping projects!"

"We received quotes from MANY landscape businesses for artificial turf, and Triangle Greens and Grass was the most honest of them all. They got back to us quickly with a quote, arrived to do the job when they said they would, and gave us excellent service. Matt was incredible and went way beyond what was expected. I would highly recommend Triangle Greens and Grass for your next project!!"

"Excellent people. Very knowledgeable, hard working with great attention to detail. Removed weeds and added a lot of topsoil to insure front yard was level prior to laying down sod. They replanted our outdated flowerbeds. Our front yard now looks amazing! I highly recommend Devin and I Cathi and their business New Life Lawn Care. I look forward to using them again."

"This project was much more involved than originally anticipated due to the quality of the soil. They did a wonderful job solving our problems and we couldn't be happier with our new, beautiful landscape. The plants are all thriving and the lighting highlights everything perfectly. We would highly recommend Sue and her crew. They do great work and are a pleasure to have around."

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

A rock garden can last indefinitely as long as you properly maintain it. Whether solely made of rocks or with greenery incorporated, they generally last a while, though it may vary based on your climate.

By definition, gardeners are experts at designing and maintaining outdoor gardens. Their job duties extend far beyond choosing the right plants for the area, which in itself is a job—they also help maintain the health and well-being of the plants. Gardeners work independently or for landscapers, nurseries, or horticulture design companies.

Don’t worry if there’s a gap between cutting and planting an ideal branch. You can still cut the perfect branch when you see it. If you can’t get it in a pot or water right away, put it in a zip-top bag in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to finish the process, make a fresh cut.

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.

Common features in lakefront landscaping projects include native and water-tolerant plants, stone paths, docks or piers, seating areas, and erosion control solutions to create a harmonious integration with the waterfront setting.
