Question Answers
How can you help with persistent weed problems in a Fort Collins yard?
We approach weed control with a combination of horticultural knowledge and local experience. Our services include proper soil preparation and regrading to discourage weed growth, strategic planting of dense shrubs and groundcovers to outcompete weeds, and environmentally responsible plant health care programs. For Fort Collins homeowners, we focus on long-term solutions that address the root cause, such as improving soil health and selecting resilient plants suited to our climate, rather than just temporary removal.
Do you handle both the design and construction of hardscape projects like patios and retaining walls?
Yes, we provide a complete service from initial concept to final installation. Our team includes degreed landscape designers who create detailed plans tailored to your space and usage needs. Then, our experienced construction crew executes the build for patios, walkways, driveways, and retaining walls. This integrated approach, managed by our local team, ensures the design is both beautiful and buildable, with clear communication throughout the entire process.
What does your shrub and tree care service include for Northern Colorado gardens?
Our comprehensive care is based on CSU horticultural principles and includes planting, pruning, transplanting, and removal. A key focus is proactive Plant Health Care, where we monitor for common local pests and diseases and manage them with targeted, responsible methods. This includes insect and disease management specifically for shrubs, which helps maintain the vitality of your entire landscape and can prevent issues like root damage to lawns from spreading tree roots.
