Frequently Asked Questions
My shrubs keep dying in Saint Louis. What's the most common cause, and how can PlaysNDirt help?
In our area, a common culprit is poor soil drainage combined with our variable weather. Compacted clay soil can suffocate roots. We start with a soil test and analysis of sun exposure. Our solution often involves aerating and amending the soil and replacing struggling plants with native or adapted species that thrive in Missouri's conditions, ensuring a landscape built to last.
Why does my landscape edging always get damaged, and what's a more durable solution?
Many common edging materials crack with our freeze-thaw cycles or get overrun by aggressive St. Louis grass. We recommend and install heavier-duty options like steel or polymer edging that are anchored deeply. This creates a permanent, clean barrier that resists shifting and damage, keeping your beds defined and reducing your long-term maintenance.
As a Saint Louis homeowner, how can I prevent these landscaping issues in the future?
Proactive care is key. We advise on proper seasonal watering schedules for our climate, recommend mulching to regulate soil temperature and moisture, and build beds with proper grading for drainage. Choosing the right plants and materials from the start, as we do, prevents most common problems, saving you time and money on repairs.
