"I could not have higher praise! I reached out to them on a Tuesday morning and that afternoon they had come over, provided a quote and started/finished the job on Thursday. I was having 47ft of fencing replaced and I am so thankful for the quality and quick response - it’s beautiful. I plan on doing more landscape work with them with year."
"I wanted pavers for my back porch. Jose from Affordable Pavers gave me a realistic and much lower quote than competitors. He was thorough and very concerned with my satisfaction. His workers were pleasant and did a great job. They too were concerned with our satisfaction and were neat during the entire process. I highly recommend this company."

Discoloration in the leaves (chlorosis)—leaves appear yellow and splotchy

Buying plants from a nursery is one thing, but ensuring that they are properly planted is another. While you might not need to hire a landscaper for every plant that you buy from a nursery, it’s a great idea to have their expertise and experience to plant larger items, like burlapped trees or specialty plants like rose bushes. Even better, before making a trip to a nursery to buy new plants, consult a local landscaper to test your soil for pH levels, soil texture, and phosphorus and potassium levels to help determine the best plants for your area.
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.
As with anything you do near your foundation, you’ll want to ensure proper drainage when you plant your foundation beds. Your drainage should run downhill from the highest point against your foundation to avoid water intrusion and incurring expensive foundation repair costs.
In most cases, wait three to five days to repot or relocate a plant from a greenhouse or nursery. That way, your plant has time to recover from any shock during the move and adapt to the conditions in and around your home. Some hearty plants may not need as long, and delicate plants might need several weeks. You should ask the professional at your nursery for a recommended timeline. Consider asking about an initial watering schedule to help stimulate root growth and promote a healthy plant.
