Land Lover Landscaping: Trusted Landscaping Serving Prospect Heights, IL 60070

In our area, edging often shifts due to freeze-thaw cycles and soil movement. The best fix is to remove the damaged sections, re-excavate a clean trench, and install new, durable edging material secured with stakes. We'll ensure proper drainage and a level installation to prevent future issues, giving your beds a crisp, long-lasting border.

For most common shrubs in Prospect Heights, we recommend a light trimming 1-2 times per growing season. A major shaping is best done in late winter or early spring before new growth starts. Regular maintenance prevents overgrowth, promotes healthy plants, and saves you from needing more intensive, costly pruning later.

Absolutely. We often recommend native and compact ornamental varieties that thrive in our local climate with minimal care. Plants like dwarf hydrangeas, boxwoods, and certain ornamental grasses provide year-round interest without the aggressive growth that leads to constant trimming, saving you time and effort.
