Mrs. V. In Richardson liked the flagstone we laid on her side patio a couple of weeks ago so much she asked us to lay it over her back patio too. We started this morning and we’ve already made quite a bit of progress. We already have about 1/3 of it cut and laid into […]
This Allen St. Augusine lawn may have been damaged by using too many chemicals. It is always a tough balance with St. Augustine to apply enough weed control to prevent or kill weeds but not so much that lawn becomes damaged. Since it is a tropical plant it is already stressed from too much heat […]
This is a photo of a Plano lawn that suffered quite a bit of freeze damage this year. It’s actually filling in nicely. It still has some large patches missing but because of our lawn fertilization program the St. Augustine surrounding it is healthy and in a few weeks will start filling back in. If […]
In the fall and early winter we use Simazine and you can see the results from those pre-emergent applications in this Garland lawn. We were able to create a line between our nice, weed free lawn and the field of pure weeds next door. In March or April you can apply Pendemethlyn to prevent spring […]
This winter we spent over 100 hours below freezing which hasn’t happened in Dallas for a couple of decades. An easy method of checking to see if your plants survived is to take a knife and lightly scrape the bark of the small limbs toward the tips. If it’s brown like the one in the […]
. 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 […]
