Questions and Answers
My rock garden in Plymouth is shifting, and nearby shrubs are dying. What's the likely cause, and how can you help?
This is a common local issue often caused by improper drainage or soil composition beneath the rocks, which can suffocate plant roots and lead to erosion. Our founder's MSU horticulture background gives us the expertise to diagnose the specific problem on your property. We can perform earthmoving or regrading to correct the drainage, replace or amend the soil, and replant with hardy, native shrubs suited to Plymouth's conditions. We also offer shrub care and disease management to nurse affected plants back to health, creating a stable and thriving landscape.
Do you handle both the design and construction of hardscape projects like patios and retaining walls?
Yes, we provide a complete service. Our team, led by a Michigan State University-educated horticulturist, handles everything from the initial design consultation to the final construction and installation. For projects like patios, walkways, and retaining walls, this means we create a cohesive plan that complements your home's architecture and the natural landscape, then expertly build it using quality materials. This integrated approach ensures the project is done correctly, efficiently, and to your exact specifications.
What sets your irrigation services apart for homeowners in our climate?
With our Michigan roots and formal training, we understand the specific demands of Southeast Michigan's seasons. Our irrigation services go beyond basic installation. We offer professional design that factors in local soil types and sun exposure to ensure efficient water use, and provide reliable repair and maintenance to prepare systems for winter and reactivate them in spring. This proactive care helps protect your investment from freeze damage and keeps your lawn healthy, even during dry summer spells, saving you water and money.
