"It went great. The crew arrived when they said they would and started work immediately. The whole crew were friendly and very good at their job. The job went very well and I know I will have a great looking lawn soon. Rodrigo kept me informed as to how the job was progressing. He also made sure to let me know how often I should water. I would surely recommend Blue Star landscaping to anyone who needs landscaping service."

"I have some bad soil and the sod is not growing there. I do not fault the company as they tried twice. I think I need to investigate this further, but it is city property so I decided not to pursue. The owner was very focused on making sure I was happy. Their workmanship was great for the price."

"Requested a quote for a landscaping project that included weed removal, fertilization, and fresh mulch installation. He did an excellent job, paid attention to detail, and left everything clean when the work was completed. He was friendly, professional, and provided a fair quote. I highly recommend his services and will definitely be contacting him again for future projects."

"Emmanuel was the only landscaper out of 4 that I contacted that would do a small (850 sq ft) sod job. He and his crew arrived on time, were pleasant, hard-working, did an excellent job, and cleaned up nicely when finished. I am very pleased with their work."

"They were slow to start, giving 4 different dates before actually starting but then kept working on the landscaping until completed. Once they were immersed in the landscaping I asked if they could add a fence panel to our existing fence and put another panel on the outside of the yard but still part of original fence. Then they gave 4 different dates to do this but never showed up until Nov 24. They completed the fence finally. I had a metal arch that needed repair or replacement. They left that arch laying in back of the garage this whole time and on the 24th they picked up the arch and left. Never told me about the arch resolution. In April of this year I contacted the owner and asked him to complete the landscaping behind the shed because they took the arch away. He then told me he couldn't find anyone to fix the arch and he said the new ones were cheap metal. I told him then to forget the arch and put the stones there that he had used next to the garage. He has never answered that nor given me a date to complete this space."

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

The best time to plant a tree is in the spring, so the roots have time to grow into the surrounding soil before winter sets in. Some people recommend planting in the late fall. However, planting in the spring reduces the stress on the tree, as it will be emerging from dormancy, giving it the full spring and summer ahead to acclimate and put down roots into the soil.

The best landscaping for a septic drain field is shallow-rooted grass or native vegetation that helps prevent soil erosion while allowing water to evaporate efficiently. Avoid planting trees, shrubs, or deep-rooted plants near the drain field because the roots can infiltrate pipes and cause blockages. Using mulch or gravel sparingly can also help retain moisture and protect the system without restricting airflow.

While both fall and spring are suitable times of the year for planting trees, fall is typically the better option. Soil stays warm long enough to allow tree roots to establish in fall before they go dormant, while spring might give way to intense summer heat before spring-planted trees have time to grow strong roots.

Surface-level tree roots might only pose a small threat, such as being a tripping hazard or obstacle when you mow your lawn. But if mature tree roots start growing in the direction of your home’s foundation or plumbing system, it could be a real problem. Cutting small tree roots out before they grow too large can keep your home safe without removing the whole tree.

If you are xeriscaping a lawn from scratch, your best bet for preparing the lawn is to work with a xeriscaping specialist in your area. The most common first step to making the transformation, however, will be to remove the turfgrass from your lawn. The subsequent steps will often include amending the soil to support new plants and installing low-drip or drip irrigation systems.
