Legacy Landscaping and Nursery | Experienced Landscapers in Springdale, AR

Proper landscape construction is key to controlling erosion in our area. We assess your yard's slope and drainage patterns, then install solutions like retaining walls, terraces, and French drains. Using techniques like strategic grading and soil stabilization, we redirect water flow away from your foundation and prevent the soil loss common after Northwest Arkansas storms, protecting your landscape investment.

A good design starts with a strong foundation. For mulch beds, we recommend and install high-quality landscape fabric or biodegradable weed barrier beneath the mulch. Our designs also incorporate dense, healthy plantings and proper bed edging to outcompete weeds and prevent grass from creeping in. We select the right mulch type and depth for our climate to suppress weeds naturally while retaining soil moisture.

Think of landscape design as the overall plan for your hardscapes (patios, walkways) and plant beds. Greenscape design focuses specifically on the living, green elements—trees, shrubs, and groundcovers. For erosion control, a greenscape design might specify deep-rooted native plants to hold soil on a slope. For weed suppression, it would select the right plant spacing and types to fill the space. We combine both for a cohesive, low-maintenance yard.
