"Joe Shaw was the most responsive of several landscapers that I contacted. We were trying to get quotes to have our front yard redesigned after having a front porch and master suite added to our home. Joe's quote was comparable to others but his prompt responses and friendly manner are what prompted us to choose Nature Redesigned for our project. We made the right choice. We are more than pleased with the outcome and have faith that Joe stands by his work and his word. He is a man of integrity. The entire Nature Redesigned crew was professional, friendly and hard working. We will certainly call Joe for any future landscaping needs we may have."

"It went great! I have been trying to find a good landscaper since my old landscaper of 25+ years retired. I have hired two others but it didn’t work out. S.O.S. Has been great, William listens and understands exactly what I want. He also offers suggestions and is very responsive. His prices are very reasonable and his workers are good. He will be maintaining my landscaping from now on. If you in search of a landscaper try S.O.S. William is the best!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is possible to add too little mulch. Anything less than 1 inch will likely result in too little coverage around your plants, allowing weeds to grow through and minimizing the positive effects that a deeper bed of mulch would have, like maintaining proper soil moisture and insulating the ground.

The best place to plant a rose bush is where it will be happiest. Growing roses is difficult if the location varies much from what the plants like. Choose a location that gets at least six hours of direct sunlight during the growing season but not much more than that in hot-climate locations. If such a spot doesn't exist in your yard, consider planting your rose in a movable container to take advantage of portability.

Yes, if you are using rocks to form a pathway or driveway, it’s a good idea to first install landscape fabric before layering in your rocks. Landscape fabric is your first line of defense against unwanted grass and weeds on your rocky surface.

Unless it only rains once in a blue moon where you live, you’re going to want water-loving plants in your garden bed or pot. A few ideas for plants that aren’t super fast-growing (meaning they’re good in pots or near foundations) and can handle a lot of standing water include: 

  • Acorus (Sweet flag)

  • Colocasia esculenta (Taro or elephant ear): In many climates, these are annuals, making them less desirable because you need to adjust the chain again after each replant.

  • Equisetum scirpoides (Dwarf horsetail rush): non-dwarf varieties of horsetail are fast growers and can take over quickly.

  • Juncus effusus (Curly rush)

  • Osmunda regalis (Royal fern): Royal fern can grow quickly but can also handle being crowded, making them good container plants.

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.
