"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

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 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.

If shade is a priority for you, then panting elm trees is a fine choice. A full mature elm tree has enough aesthetic appeal for some folks that it could add value to your home. 

That said, never plant elm trees too close to your home, sewer line, or sidewalks, as their roots can damage these, which can lead to costly repairs.

You should plant trees at least 15 to 20 feet away from your house, and more if the tree will grow large and spread its limbs. Trees pose several dangers to houses when planted too close. They can litter the roof with leaves and branches, create fire hazards, make a ladder for larger pests, and even damage the foundation as their roots grow.

Multiple rules of thumb exist when discussing tree planting. When planting a tree, the best rule of thumb is to provide it with everything it needs to survive and thrive in its new environment. That may mean learning about the type of tree you're planting and studying the best methods of taking care of it before purchasing and planting.
