"JK Gardening Lawn & Garden Care once again has done a fantastic job for us. They are always prompt with communication, prices are fair, and their work is excellent. Within a week of contacting Kevin, I had someone come out to assess what work I needed and had a crew show up. I asked for additional landscaping work this year, a separate quote was drawn up, approved and scheduled with ease. Thank you for another great experience!"

In this project, we transformed a bare dirt area by using Blue Ice stone in the corner. Along the patio border, we added Delaware River Jack to seamlessly connect the entire stone bed around the pool.

"I have never been happier with a landscaping company. Straight A's are well-deserved. Fast, on-time, on budget, with impeccable workmanship. Our lawn and landscape have never looked so good - and they are a pleasure to work with. First time looking on Angie's List and it was a win. Highly recommended."

"Mr. Benitez came out and walked the property with me. We discussed what needed to be done, and he recommended a couple of other services, all of which seemed reasonable. His price was higher than the last landscaping contractor I had used; however, this was a more involved job. In the end, it was worth every penny. My planting beds were reshaped, cleared of weeds, and mulched, as were the tree rings in my yard. His crew also took the time to trim the trees in my front and back yards, and the results were outstanding. Mr. Benitez recommended building a planting bed around our A/C units, which I hadn't originally considered. The results were outstanding. The crew was prompt, polite, and extremely professional. Mr. Benitez called to ensure that I was satisfied with the work, and he clearly takes a great deal of pride in the work that his team performs. I would highly recommend Benitez Landscape & Design, and look forward to working with them for my future landscaping needs."

"I would absolutely recommend Holy Land Landscaping. They did an amazing job with my yard! From the consultation Edin was professional and attentive. He offered suggestions on the best way to approach the task and had a quick turnaround on the results. My yard and hedges are immaculate. I can hardly believe it's the same yard. I would recommend them ten times over!"

"I have never done a project like the patio they did and I could not be happier with the process, and the work Mike and his team did. He helped my wife and I scope out the project and listened to what we wanted and how we wanted to use the space. His suggestions were thoughtful and the end product turned out just as we had envisioned. There was no pressure during the process and he took all the time we needed to answer questions. His crew worked incredibly hard every day they were here, and you could tell they took pride in their work, focused on little details I couldn’t even envision, and had fun while doing it. This definitely showed in the end product as it looks great and I am extremely happy with the quality."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

You should use mulch because it protects garden soil in a few key ways. This extra layer between the ground and the elements protects against erosion, helps your soil maintain moisture, regulates changes in temperature, adds nutrients as it decomposes, and keeps weeds at bay.

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.

A window flower box should be deep enough that there’s room for a wide selection of plants and the required amount of soil and gravel. Standard flower boxes are 8 inches deep and 8 inches from front to back. Larger is better to increase the variety of plants in the box, but you could run into stability issues as it increases in weight.

You should exercise care when deciding how to landscape over a leach field for your septic system. You typically want lightweight materials that won’t damage the drain field’s perforated pipes. When adding plants to the area, select plants with shallow roots, such as grass or flower gardens. Trees with deep roots could damage the pipes in the field.

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.
