MulchMulch is a very important part of the xeriscape process. Not all mulches are created the same. Some woods are dyed to a certain color whether that's red or black. It's personal preference but we've seen mulch that has a more natural look like a shredded cypress or cedar chips tends to be a better fit for most landscape design. We believe mulch shouldn't stand out, but blend in.

Gravel InstallationGravel installation isn't new to us. There are many reason someone would want to get gravel installed into their back or front yard, like reduce maintained and lower costs. Gravel installation can actually brighten your garden if you use the decorative gravel and when walked on, can even act as a sound alarm at night. We always ensure we lay the gravel to the right measurements, not too shallow where you can see the ground, and not so deep where you sink into the gravel when walked on. We will also spray the gravel to wash off any dust and give it, its' best color.

Planting Tips |
Before planting, it is essential to carefully plan your landscaping. Planning can be the most important step in implementing a well organized landscape. Take into consideration the following:
Choose colors. Plants with colored foliage and flowers.
Will you use flowers for cutting, bouquets & crafts?
Consider all seasons. Spring and Autumn foliage color.
What type of maintenance does your time allow?
Do you want plants that attract butterflies, hummingbirds and other birds.
Choose focal areas, consider balance, proportion and unity.
Use of vines & climbers, plants for hedges and screens, and trees.
Consider climate, lighting requirements, watering needs and soil needs.
Does anyone in the household have specific allergies?
Do you want annuals for seasonal color? Perennial borders? Bulb like plants?
A lot of people have trouble viewing a flat piece of paper and visualizing what the finished project will look like. There are a lot of cheap computer programs out there that you could buy that claim they can help you in this area. Experience has shown us that most of these are very generic and leave quite a bit to be desired. A Landscape architect knows how to help you visualize and plan so the finished results will look as good as you hope.
