Top-Rated Landscaping in Owatonna, MN 55060 - Stone Horizons Landscape

Patchy lawns in our area are often due to a combination of compacted soil, nutrient deficiencies, and thatch buildup, which prevent grass roots from getting the water and air they need. At Stone Horizons, we start with a core aeration service to relieve soil compaction and improve nutrient absorption. We then follow up with a customized overseeding and fertilization plan using high-quality grass blends suited for Minnesota's climate. This approach tackles the underlying issue to promote a thick, healthy, and uniform lawn.

Choosing the right plant for the right place is crucial. Many common shrubs fail because they aren't suited to our local soil pH, winter hardiness zone, or sun exposure. We offer expert landscape design and installation services, selecting from a range of native and hardy, non-invasive shrubs that are proven to thrive in Steele County. We ensure proper planting depth, soil amendment, and initial care to give your new shrubs the best possible start for long-term health and beauty.

Absolutely. Unhealthy soil is often the root cause of both patchy grass and dying plants. Our comprehensive approach includes professional soil testing to identify pH imbalances and nutrient gaps. Based on the results, we provide targeted soil amendment services, such as adding organic matter or lime, to create a fertile foundation. Improving your soil's structure and biology is a long-term investment that leads to deeper roots, better drought tolerance, and overall landscape vitality.
