Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean that you're a small, owner-operated business in West Pawlet?
It means you work directly with me, Maureen, the business owner and gardener, from our first consultation through every project phase. This hands-on approach allows for clear communication and personalized care for your garden. I take the time to understand your specific needs and the unique conditions of your West Pawlet property, ensuring the solutions we implement are thoughtfully designed and meticulously maintained.
My rock garden and landscape edging in West Pawlet are shifting and getting damaged. Can you help?
Absolutely. The soil and frost conditions common in our area can cause these exact issues. For rock gardens, I assess the underlying soil structure and drainage, then reposition and secure stones with proper techniques to prevent future shifting. For damaged edging, I can repair or replace it with materials and installation methods suited to withstand Vermont's freeze-thaw cycles, creating clean, durable lines that define your landscape.
Do you offer ongoing shrub care, including dealing with diseases or pests?
Yes, comprehensive shrub care is a core service. This includes seasonal pruning, planting, transplanting, and removal. For disease and insect management, I use an integrated approach, first correctly identifying the issue and then recommending the most effective, targeted treatment—whether cultural, mechanical, or organic—to restore your shrubs' health while minimizing environmental impact.
