Maintenance is my specialty. My natural lawn care program includes practices such as: mulch-mowing (leaving the chopped-up grass to return nutrients to your lawn); mowing high to encourage deeper roots and crowd out weeds; avoiding the use of pesticides and synthetic fertilizers whenever possible. I offer regular maintenance services for landscape beds including weeding, pruning, general cleanup and grooming, even organic mulch.
Hardscape
I have installed all variety of patios, walkways, and walls using material as varied as recycled concrete to the latest designer paving.
Trees
Proper tree care is essential to a beautiful garden but is often the most neglected element. I prune for the long term health of your trees and to cultivate a shape and texture that is natural and an asset to your garden.
Consultation
Often I encounter people that like to keep their own yard, but want a little help or a few pointers. I will do an annual or seasonal, on site, consultation to answer your questions and make suggestions for the coming months.
