Stonescapes Landscape | Licensed Landscaping Services in Excelsior, MN

In the Excelsior area, dying shrubs are often a symptom of poor soil conditions, like compaction and poor drainage from our dense clay soil. This suffocates roots and prevents water absorption. Stonescapes starts with a soil analysis, then implements solutions like deep-core aeration, strategic soil amendment with organic matter, and replanting with shrubs better suited to our local climate. Our goal is to correct the underlying issue, not just replace the plant.

Severe compaction, especially after construction or heavy use, is a frequent issue here. We use professional-grade core aerators to remove plugs of soil, relieving pressure and creating channels for air, water, and nutrients to reach grass roots. For landscaped beds, we may use deep-tine aeration or carefully amend the soil. This foundational service revitalizes your lawn's health, promoting deeper roots and better drought resistance.

Our services are designed for long-term health. Beyond corrective aeration and replanting, we offer customized seasonal maintenance plans. This includes proper mulching to regulate soil temperature and moisture, strategic pruning to promote plant vigor, and soil nutrient management. By partnering with us for ongoing care, we can monitor your landscape and proactively address small issues before they become major problems, saving you time and money.
