FAQs
How can I stop my rock garden from shifting and looking messy?
In Poulsbo's soil conditions, proper base preparation and secure edging are key. We assess the drainage and soil stability, then reset stones using a compacted gravel base and secure borders to prevent movement from rain and frost, creating a low-maintenance feature that lasts.
Why do my shrubs keep dying, and what are better options for Poulsbo?
Common causes here are poor drainage, unsuitable soil pH, or planting non-native species. We perform a site analysis and recommend replacing problem shrubs with Pacific Northwest natives like Oregon grape, salal, or evergreen huckleberry, which are adapted to our climate and require less water and care.
What's the first step to fixing a failing landscape in our area?
Start with a professional assessment. We'll visit your Poulsbo property to evaluate soil health, drainage patterns, and plant health. This allows us to create a prioritized plan—often addressing drainage or soil amendments first—to build a solid foundation for new plantings and hardscapes.
