First Delivery attempt: I had previously scheduled to have a tree planted from another nursery, but canceled and went with treeland because their trees were much cheaper. As a result of this, I already had the utilities marked, so I didn't bother to call Texas811. A couple of days before the delivery, treeland calls to ask for the Texas811 report number (or something to that effect), and I told them I had not called them since the flags were still in the ground from the last time the service was marked. Treeland says I need to have the utilities marked again, and forced a reschedule of the tree planting. Second Delivery attempt: Texas 811 marks my utilities again. The crew shows up two hours early, and I'm still at work. I get a call from treeland, and they say that the crew reports that it is raining heavily at my house and they need to reschedule. My neighbor reports that the treeland truck is outside of my house for a while, and it didn't rain that afternoon... Third delivery attempt: Texas811 marks my utilities yet again. More flags, and more spray paint. Treeland calls and wants to reschedule due to the recent ice storm, weather is lousy, streets are iced over. Completely understandable. Delivery is rescheduled for Dec 14. Fourth delivery attempt: Texas811 marks my utilities yet again. More flags, and more spray paint. The crew arrives earlier than the scheduled time, but I am home since it is on a Saturday.. They dig the hole,and plant the tree. All seems well, until closer inspection the next day. I found three good-sized branches broken on one side (just noticed a fourth broken branch today), and several smaller broken branches. Upon telling Derek about this, he offers to have his crew come out Dec 21 and cut the damaged branches off. I state that I'm out of town that day, and I'd like to be there when the tree is pruned. He responds back with where I can prune them myself (I had provided pictures of the breaks). This whole process would have been A-OK (aside from the constant spray painting of my front yard) had the delivery crew not butchered my tree. Loading and unloading the tree into the delivery truck several times probably didn't help matters much. I wouldn't have wasted my time driving up to their nursery to pick out a nice tree had I known it would be so roughly handled. 5-10 years from now it probably won't matter as the tree fills in, but that isn't the point. I paid to have the tree professionally planted to avoid this sort of problem. While Derek was responsive to my emails complaining about the damage to the tree, not once did he offer an apology. I'm kicking myself for not closely inspecting the tree before they planted it, as I would have refused delivery.

I told Mark I wanted to look different from everybody else on the block, but not so different that is was a stark contrast. One year later, we still receive complements from our neighbors. Right after completion, it was amazing how many people stopped in front of our house when driving past. Mark was able to handle my "what goes in front of the picture window" issue/waffling with patience, grace and a decent dollop of joking. One thing Mark and his team did was to trench the edge of the landscape beds. We love the clean and natural edge that gives to the flower beds. We would definitely use Mark again and would highly recommend him.

"We recently had the pleasure of working with Jake, the owner of Sporange Landscape and Drainage, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Jake installed two patios and a connecting path, using contemporary large-format porcelain pavers and gravel planting beds that border and define the patios and the path. He also redirected the existing downspout discharge underground and away from the house and patios. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are second to none. From start to finish, Jake was professional, communicative, and passionate about his work. He listened to our vision and he delivered."

FAQs for greenhouse and nursery service projects in Hackberry, TX
Buying plants from a nursery is one thing, but ensuring that they are properly planted is another. While you might not need to hire a landscaper for every plant that you buy from a nursery, it’s a great idea to have their expertise and experience to plant larger items, like burlapped trees or specialty plants like rose bushes. Even better, before making a trip to a nursery to buy new plants, consult a local landscaper to test your soil for pH levels, soil texture, and phosphorus and potassium levels to help determine the best plants for your area.
Garden nurseries offer many plants to make your home and garden flourish. In-container plants are one option, including perennials, annuals, and small shrubs or trees. Large hedge plants and roses are called bare-root plants, meaning they have not been potted. Finally, you will see some burlapped plants, typically larger trees and shrubs with burlap wrapping around the bottom.
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 you’re hiring a landscaper to plant the garden of your dreams, you do not need to provide them with plants that you bought yourself from a nursery. While you certainly can provide your landscaper with plants, keep in mind that some nurseries provide discounts to landscaping companies, therefore potentially lowering your materials cost. Beyond the cost of the plants themselves, you need to have additional materials like topsoil and mulch for the project. Most likely, your landscaper can get a discount on these materials as well, so it’s worth speaking with them before making any large purchases.
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.
