"Eldi has now completed two different projects at my home. A large, stone paver project around a pool and a landscape stone wall across my front yard. They were very responsive to our messages and arrived at the agreed time. Pricing was fair as well. Work looks great. I will definitely hire again"

"Dan Mayer’s design firm exceeded my expectations on all levels. Most importantly, Mr. Mayer was able to streamline my hodgepodge of ideas into a truly beautiful landscape that I am able to enjoy year round. I am looking forward to having him return once the construction on my guest house and pool has been completed."

"I hired Mike to remove a 150 ft row of overgrown brush that had an old fence running in the middle. The day of the job Mike arrived on time and had all the proper equipment for the job. He was able to complete this job in a day. After the removal he added top soil and graded my lawn so now the water runs to the road and doesn’t pool in my yard. He listen to what I wanted and gave his advice and I am thrilled with the result. I would highly recommend Mike."

Highly recommend for anyone who needs a fix up or a bigger projects and needs to work on a budget! Will happily call him for any other repairs needed going forward."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

Hedge plants are available in almost every size, from seedlings to fully mature, six-foot-tall shrubs. Planting smaller plants is much easier and more cost-effective. However, it can take years for the plants to reach maturity and create a full hedge. Garden centers and specialty retailers sometimes offer three to four-foot wide plants that you can simply plant next to each other for an instant full hedge.

Finding a reputable greenhouse or nursery should start online, where you can read through customer reviews to gauge the quality of the plants sold and the customer experience. Look out for customers complaining about plants dying shortly after purchase, and try to choose a greenhouse known for hiring employees who are able to explain how to care for the plants you purchase. It’s also a good idea to head to a few greenhouses to see the selection they offer and make sure they carry the plants or trees you’re looking for.

The truth is, there really is no such thing as a 100% deer-proof plant. Deer will decimate even the prickliest flora if they’re hungry enough. However, there are plenty of beautiful plants that deer don’t necessarily enjoy. These include thistles, wisteria vines, sword ferns, and beautyberries.

Deer are herbivores, and they love vegetable gardens as much as Peter Rabbit. If you don’t want to fence in your entire property, consider creating an attractive raised-bed veggie garden with mesh fencing around it to keep out deer and other critters.

Yes, you can hydroseed with a garden hose, but you’ll need a tank or other large vessel for mixing the slurry, then a pump to send the slurry through the hose for spraying. Making your own hydroseeding unit can work, but it’s not usually worth the effort and supplies unless you already have them.
