Evergreen Gardening | Licensed Landscapers in Oakland, CA

We tackle Oakland's tough clay soil and summer heat with a multi-step approach. For soil compaction, we use core aeration and incorporate organic matter to improve drainage and root health. To combat heat stress, our designs prioritize drought-tolerant native and Mediterranean plants that are adapted to our climate. We also install efficient, zoned irrigation systems with smart controllers to deliver precise water amounts, ensuring your landscape is resilient and water-wise.

Our process is comprehensive. It starts with a design consultation at your Oakland home to understand your vision and the site's specific conditions, like drainage and sun exposure. We then create a detailed plan for your patio, walkway, or retaining wall, selecting materials suited for our local weather. Our licensed crew handles all construction, including proper excavation, base preparation, and installation, ensuring a level, durable, and beautiful result that integrates seamlessly with your existing landscape.

Absolutely. Our proactive tree and shrub care services are tailored for the Bay Area. This includes seasonal pruning to maintain plant health and structure, deep-root fertilization to combat nutrient-poor soil, and monitoring for pests and diseases common in our region. For shrubs struggling with heat or compaction, we provide specialized care like soil conditioning and proper mulching. This ongoing maintenance helps your plants develop stronger defenses against local environmental stresses.
