"So easy to work with and incredible communication; I've had such a positive experience with Zehr's Flowers I had to make the time to share my experience here. They listen, they're creative, and they stay on time and on budget. Zero sales pressure, just great listening skills and expertise. Derek is such a great person to collaborate with - he created a design that brought the yard to life and required little maintenance on our end (I needed something my busy parents didn't have to tend to all the time but still had lots of colors). My parent's front yard went from blah to beautiful in a day. In fact, they just came for the annual maintenance/spring clean-up they offer to all clients. It's really been a beautiful transformation, and I hope you'll check them out. You'll be happy you did! I know I am."

"I had this service come in January and clean through my house. They did a deep clean on 2 of my rooms and dusted and cleaned the other rooms. I will have them come again when the weather is better."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

As much as you might try to keep a healthy, nutrient-rich lawn, you still may notice signs of St. Augustine decline (SAD)—a viral disease that discolors your grass blades. St. Augustine decline looks like:

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

  • Decline in growth

  • Leaves turn black within 3 years

  • Grass appears less vibrant

  • Grass begins to thin

  • Root rot

  • Grass takes longer to recover

Yes, backyard landscaping and total-home landscaping add value to your home. According to the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), high-quality landscape design has a 20 to 30 percent return on investment. So, when it comes time to sell your home, having a beautiful backyard landscaping oasis will increase your home’s value. 

DIY landscaping is possible, but professional services offer expertise in selecting appropriate plants and designing functional spaces that complement the natural environment and adhere to local regulations.

While you can leave roots in the ground, if you don’t want the shrub to regrow again over time, it’s best not to leave any roots behind. Ensure you remove as much of the shrub as possible, including the root ball and any main roots you can see, to prevent new growth. Some gardeners opt for using a chemical treatment to prevent the stump from growing back, but this can kill beneficial microorganisms living in your soil.
