"Kenny and his team are wonderful--meticulous, thoughtful, professional, and just kind, good people. We hired them to install a gravel pit and flagstones and are so happy with our new backyard. We will be calling them back to do some plantings next year. Kenny was very responsive, helped flesh out our vision, and when something wasnt to his standards he came back with ideas to revamp it and work within our budget. A great experience overall. I would not hesitate to recommend."

"I was anxious when I received the violation from the NYC DOT for the cracks in my sidewalk. But enlisting Raj to replace my sidewalk, sloped driveway, and entrance took all my worries away. The best part for me was the thorough scope of work on the estimate, which made me feel confident that the job would be exactly what I wanted and needed. The result is amazing and certainly raised the curb appeal of my home!"

"We hired this pro to repair our sidewalk as we got a violation letter from NYC DOT. They took complete responsibility on the case-from requesting a permit for the project, thorough a quick and efficient repair till contacting DOT to remove the violation. The repair was well organized, neat and accurate. My sidewalk looks really good now. Malik gave me further instructions and followed up with me next day to check if we are happy with the job. He assured they will make any fix promptly if there is a need. I highly recommend this pro to anyone who needs help with wide range of such projects. Thanks a million, Malik!"

"Rosemarie and her team did an incredible job transforming our backyard. Previously, we had issues with drainage and our yard was basically a muddy, unusable space. We had previously gotten estimates from other companies and were disappointed with the cookie cutter approach we received. By contrast, Rosemarie came out to visit us, patiently listened to what we were dealing with and what our goals were for the yard, and came up with a vision that exceeded our expectations. Her team executed on that vision at a very high level. They worked efficiently and carefully and were respectful of our property and neighbors. We have been so pleased with the results. The installation just wrapped up a few weeks ago, but we have already used our yard much more frequently. The plants that went in are thriving and the drainage issues that we had previously dealt with have gone away. Throughout the process, Rosemarie and her team provided a high level of transparency, responsiveness and communication. They clearly take pride in their work (and their enthusiasm for native plants is infectious!) and we were consistently impressed by their expertise, resourcefulness and vision. We highly, highly recommend Our Temenos."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

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.

It is for the purpose of protecting them from hail because you’ll be removing it soon after the threat is over. However, plastic or vinyl tarps aren’t recommended as a long-term way of protecting your plants from frost because they’ll trap too much moisture inside, which is actually not a good thing for your plants. But in the short term, it’s fine to use even an overturned garbage can to protect a plant from hail.

Yes, rock gardens do need water. That said, they typically require less regular watering and, instead, more occasional, deep watering since the rocks trap moisture for longer than mulch. Make sure you don’t water your rock garden too much during the winter.

In most cases, buying plants from a local greenhouse or nursery is well worth the investment, even though they tend to be a bit more expensive than those at a home improvement store. Employees at nurseries are usually well-versed in gardening and understand how the climate in your area affects different plants. They can help you make selections based on your skill level and time commitment to your landscaping, and they can provide detailed care instructions and advice to help keep your plants alive and diagnose and treat issues like pest infestation and illness.

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.
