Common Questions
What's your process for designing a new landscape in Whittier?
We begin with a thorough consultation to understand your style, usage needs, and budget. Drawing on nearly two decades of experience in Southern California, we then design a functional space that blends native plants—which are drought-tolerant and support local ecology—with compatible non-native species for color and variety. The goal is a cohesive, sustainable landscape that fits Whittier's climate and requires sensible maintenance.
I have a problem with soggy, overwatered areas and tree roots damaging my lawn. Can you help?
Yes, this is a common issue in Whittier. We address overwatering by evaluating and adjusting irrigation systems for efficiency and zoning, often incorporating drought-resistant plants in problematic areas. For tree root damage, we offer solutions like strategic root pruning (with care for tree health), regrading, or replacing affected lawn sections with permeable ground covers or decorative hardscaping that coexists better with tree roots.
What does your regular landscape maintenance include?
Our maintenance services are designed to preserve the health and beauty of your investment. This includes lawn care (mowing, edging, aeration), shrub and tree care (pruning, trimming, health monitoring), targeted insect management for shrubs, fertilization, and weed control. We create a tailored schedule to keep your landscape vibrant while proactively addressing small issues before they become big problems.
