"The work was outstanding from beginning to end. Pierce is upfront and transparent about the process. We had a very tough backyard to renovate with a lot of rocks and tough terrain. Cody and his team put in a sweet split rail fence that is perfect to fence in a new puppy. They also flattened out my backyard, applied topsoil and seed and added river rocks beneath my deck area. It is totally transformed. Cody and his team were friendly, punctual, and work very quickly. This is the second big job that Pierce has done for us and the work and people are outstanding. I highly recommend these guys for any landscaping project you need, big or small."

"We recently had a fall clean up for our yard completed by CMG Landscaping. We initially called the office, and were warmly greeted by Cori, the Office Manager, for pricing and availability as we wished to have the job completed in early October. Cori was very professional, extremely helpful, and her polite and friendly manner over the phone convinced us that we would choose CMG Landscaping for this service. She displayed such a positive attitude, communicated clearly and effectively, and went "above and beyond" to make us, the customers, feel valued and informed. When the crew showed up to perform the fall cleanup, they were very professional, hardworking, friendly, and on time. We were extremely satisfied with the results! We highly recommend CMG Landscaping for any of your landscape maintenance or design needs."

"John and his team completed two major projects for my husband and I. We redid our back patio (about 6 years ago) which included substantially expanding its size, building a new stone wall, and all new hardscape and landscaping. Several years later the patio still looks beautiful and the landscaping has filled in. Family and friends often ask who completed the work and we are happy to share Plymouth Nursery! We have been so pleased with how it turned out. This past summer we rehired Plymouth Nursery and Landscape to complete our front walkway. John came right out to give us a price. The job was priced very competitively. Work was done in a timely matter and once again done beautifully and to our satisfaction. Highly recommend Plymouth Nursery for your landscape and hardscaping needs!"

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

The best size river rock for your landscaping project depends on how you plan to use the stones. Generally, most river rocks used in landscaping are between 1/2 and 8 inches in diameter. For walkways and pathways, smaller rocks between 1 and 3 inches are suitable. For water features, medium-sized stones from 2 to 5 inches often work best. Garden beds can benefit from a mix of medium and large stones, ranging from 3 to 8 inches. These sizes can cover applications like decorative flower beds and drainage areas around foundations or retaining walls. For added visual interest, landscapers sometimes intersperse smaller river rocks with large boulders.

Topsoil should go down first. If the topsoil is next to your house, make sure the grade slopes away from the house to keep water from pooling against your foundation and possibly leaking into your basement or crawl space. Don’t cover your decorative landscape mulch with topsoil as that defeats the purpose of laying down the mulch. If you’re trying to create a certain soil composition to improve plant growth, you’ll likely want compost mixed into the topsoil instead of mulch. Over time, any decorative wood mulch will simply decompose under the topsoil.

Yes, rubber mulch allows water to seep through and reach the soil underneath. Rubber mulch is not as absorbent as organic mulch, which allows the soil underneath to stay moist and hydrated. Keep in mind that the permeability of rubber mulch can get clogged by landscape fabric and other additional materials.

Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on several factors. On the lower end, common types like red and black mulch cost about $35 to $40 per cubic yard and are often made from recycled wood. More premium options like cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch can cost between $100 and $120 per cubic yard. The total cost is also influenced by delivery, which can be around $75 per cubic yard, though many companies provide a free estimate. It is generally cheaper to buy mulch in bulk and have it delivered, but buying it in bags may be more cost-effective for smaller areas. Other factors like the quantity you need, time of year, your geographical location, and professional installation will also affect the final price. Before getting quotes, it's a good idea to calculate how much mulch you need. A professional can help you determine the most suitable type for your landscaping needs.

Nonorganic mulch, like river rocks, pebbles, or lava rock, technically lasts the longest. It helps with moisture retention and weed control but doesn’t break down and release nutrients like organic mulch. Wood mulch decomposes slowly, which can help it last longer than leaf or straw mulch, but it won’t provide as many nutrients as quickly as the faster decomposing types.
