"Local landscapes did a great job. Their pricing seemed high to me but after quoting other providers, it was exceedingly reasonable, especially for the job done. I would and will hire them again. Baden, exceeds in the manual work and owner, Brodie, does a nice job with overall project management / communication. Thanks Local Landscape 419!"
"Paxton and his crew did an outstanding job on our property. We had a large-scale project full excavation, grading, and a custom pond with a curved retaining wall and they knocked it out of the park!! Paxton was professional from the jump, communicated clearly throughout the whole process, and you can tell he takes REAL pride in his work. The attention to detail on the wall alone sets them apart. This is the kind of contractor you refer to everyone you know. I plan to continue all landscaping project with him and his crew!"

"After getting about 10 quotes from different area contractors, I selected MTZ Construction to tear out and replace a retaining wall along the back of my property. I was impressed with the professional quote I received with accurate measurements taken and discussing different options/price points for multiple quotes in order to arrive at the best plan for what we had in mind and our budget. Once completed I then requested additional quotes to replace my crumbling privacy fence that ran along the top of wall, and to clear a swath of overgrown brush behind the new retaining wall and the edge of my property. All projects were especially difficult due to the lack of access to the location of the wall (cul-de-sac property with near zero property line, and a concrete subdivision owned wall at the back end restricting access. It required a lot of manual work in place of using machinery. MTZ did an amazing job! Extremely hard workers on this team! They were professional, showed up on time, worked till 7:30pm most nights and even came on a Saturday to finish one of the projects. They were very pleasant during the process, they were respectful of my property and were careful not to tear up my grass or disturb my neighbors. They even cleaned up after themselves at the end of each day! I originally hired them for the wall only but their work was such high quality and prices so reasonable that I kept negotiating more and more work in addition to the original project. I highly recommend them for any landscaping project you may need. I will use them moving forward for any and all projects that come up within their scope of expertise! (...and have already recommended them to my family and friends!)"
If you are xeriscaping a lawn from scratch, your best bet for preparing the lawn is to work with a xeriscaping specialist in your area. The most common first step to making the transformation, however, will be to remove the turfgrass from your lawn. The subsequent steps will often include amending the soil to support new plants and installing low-drip or drip irrigation systems.
Yes, you can landscape in the rain, but you should take some precautions to keep yourself and your tools safe. Avoid using electric landscaping tools during rainfall, and don’t mow, thatch, aerate, or rake in the rain, as your tools can more easily tear out roots in the loose soil. Be careful when working on wet grass, and take your time to avoid slipping. Avoid putting in new plants before a particularly bad storm, as heavy rain and strong winds can damage or uproot plants that aren’t yet established.
While there are over 400,000 different flowering plants worldwide, there are five main types of flowers. These flower types are based on their lifecycles, giving each type a unique personality. These types are:
Annuals, which complete their entire life cycle within a single growing season.
Perennials, which the tops die off in the winter but regrow in spring.
Biennials, which complete their entire life cycle within two years.
Hybrids, which exhibit either annual or perennial behaviors depending on location
Flowering shrubs, which are small to medium-sized perennial woody plants, such as shrubs or evergreens.
The best time to plant is between spring and autumn. Springtime weather is typically mild and is when nurseries start to bloom. When the summer weather arrives and it’s hot out, it’s best to avoid planting bare-root plants, but you can still plant many in-container varieties. The first sign of fall is another great opportunity to plant biennials if you live in southern states, or a lovely vegetable garden up north.
Xeriscaped lawns are far more varied than many gardeners initially assume. The often-pictured rocky and cacti-filled landscapes are just one option. Many wildflower-, herb-, and mulch-covered landscapes follow the same principles without straying too far from the lush and colorful landscapes we have come to know. In fact, there are numerous xeriscape ideas for customizing an energy-efficient lawn to your liking.
