. We installed this Garland landscape in September of last year. The plants are filling in nicely and by this time next year will look great. Notice the use of savanah holly trees behind the gazebo to screen the fence and give a feeling of more privacy.
Take a look at the roots at this Plano sprinkler repair. After 20 years or so the roots have lifted the pipe and valve several inches – definitely not what you want to see in your sprinkler system. There isn’t much room in this circular drive area so we will have to re-route the main […]
Our Fairview landscape is finished. Another very happy customer. We really do have a fun job!
We had two inches of very hard rain last night and our Fairview drainage solution worked like a charm. I spoke with the neighbor and he said that when they had rains all of the water and dirt from this area would cascade over the wall and into his pool by the wheel barrow full. […]
Look at how quickly spot treating for broadleaf weed works. These two Richardson lawns looked identical three weeks ago and now you can barely find a broadleaf weed in ours. Lawn tip: Never use weed and feed products. Over time they damage your shrubs and trees. Spot treating for weeds is mire effective and healthier […]
Three years later to the day, look at how nice this landscape is. By using dwarf and semi-dwarf plants the trimming can still be done once a year with a pair of hand pruners. Also notice how we have tons of perrenial color which means it only takes a few flats of annuals to really […]
We’ve tilled in the compost in the back beds and we’ve dug a hole for the magnolia. Notice we are filling back in with the same soil that came out of the hole. That keeps the roots from becoming root bound into a different type of soil.
We have all the beds expanded. Now we’re installing the steel edging and compost. Notice how we rounded the sharp corner of the steel edging to avoid the dangerous sharp edge. We’re bringing in lots and lots of compost. We only get one shot at amending the soil so we have to do it right […]
We started another landscape installation. This is a beautiful home with a landscape that needs some updating. Today we pulled out plants and expanded the beds by digging out the bermuda.
After 30 years in this business I have become a huge believer in road maps for everything – especially landscapes. Most of the landscapes I see probably started with a good idea and over time plants were added either because the replacement plant looked kind of like the other one that died or was on […]
