Question Answers
What's the best way to handle persistent weeds in my Colchester mulch beds?
Weeds in mulch beds are a common challenge in our area due to wind-blown seeds and soil conditions. Our approach combines proper mulch depth, the use of pre-emergent treatments where appropriate, and diligent manual removal during our regular maintenance visits. For new installations, we can design beds with quality landscape fabric and proper edging to significantly reduce future weed pressure. As part of our shrub and garden care, we address this issue proactively to keep your property looking clean.
Do you offer complete landscape design and installation services?
Yes, we provide full-service landscape design and construction. Starting with a free consultation at your Colchester home, we'll discuss your vision, assess the property, and create a practical design plan. Our services then cover the entire installation process, including greenscape construction, planting trees and shrubs, and building hardscape elements. With over 15 years of experience, we manage the project from concept to completion, ensuring a cohesive and lasting result for your outdoor space.
What does your seasonal maintenance program include for lawns and shrubs?
Our seasonal program is tailored to Vermont's climate and focuses on the health and appearance of your lawn and plantings. For lawns, this includes regular mowing, aeration, overseeding to combat patchy grass, and fertilization. For shrubs and trees, our care involves seasonal pruning, health inspections for disease or insects, deep-root feeding, and protective winterization. We also handle comprehensive spring and fall cleanups to remove debris, trim back perennials, and prepare your landscape for the changing seasons.
