"Excellent job. They came out and gave me ideas, provided a plan and an estimate. Work done turned out great. Three of the smaller plants did not look healthy after about 4 months and the promptly replaced them. Would highly recommend them for your landscaping needs."

"Have used them twice since moving in several years ago. Second time was because I’d redone the back yard so needed to redo the lighting there. Brent and his crew did a great job at a reasonable price. They came when they said they would and cleaned up nicely when they were done. Highly recommend them for landscape lighting and putting in security lighting. Haven’t used them for holiday lighting but have seen some of their work and also recommend for anyone needing such."

"We had an excellent experience with RDZ Landscaping. We communicated what services we wanted and the guys came out and ran through these items and left our yard with that curbside appeal. They mentioned other services that may be needed in the future ie mulch, weed control, power washing with prices so that we know what to expect if and when we decide to add those services. RDZ team arrived on our scheduled date and treated our landscaping as if it was their own. RDZ was very easy to reach, open to the questions I had followed by recommendations. Glad I found a group that I can rely and trust on with my house and poolside landscaping."

"We had some work done by Espino concrete Solution and I have to say I was impressed with a job well done. The owner of the company was very professional and is very knowledgeable of his work. Kept in contact with me and made sure we were in complete agreement with the job that needed to be done. When the job was done, the area was left very clean. And organized. I highly recommend for any of your concrete jobs. JOlmos"

Landscaping FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

The most important thing to put under a rock garden is the appropriate soil. The specific soil needed will depend on the type of plants you’re growing as well as the environment you live in. You can also put non-woven or woven fabric under the rocks to add to the garden's structural stability.

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.

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.
