Queen City Soil and Stone - Burlington's Certified Landscaping

Absolutely. In Burlington, dying shrubs are often due to soil conditions, improper planting, or species not suited to our local climate. Our landscape design process starts with a site analysis to diagnose the issue. We then create a design using hardy, native, or adapted plants that will thrive in your specific yard, ensuring long-term health and reducing future maintenance worries.

Yes, it does. Irrigation timer failure is a common issue that can waste water and harm your plants. Our landscape maintenance program includes seasonal system checks, where we inspect, repair, and reprogram timers and controllers. We ensure your irrigation system runs efficiently, protecting your landscape investment and conserving water, which is especially important during our drier Vermont summers.

Great question! Our gardening service focuses on the ongoing care and cultivation of your existing plants, beds, and lawns—perfect for keeping everything healthy. Greenscape design is about creating new, sustainable planted areas, often with a focus on eco-friendly practices like rain gardens or pollinator-friendly plantings. Think of it as gardening for the initial build-out. Both services work together to solve local issues by building resilient, beautiful landscapes that last.
