Wellspring Gardening and Landscaping - Fort Collins's Experienced Landscaping

Compacted soil is common here and prevents water, air, and nutrients from reaching grass roots. Our gardening services include core aeration, which removes small plugs of soil to relieve compaction. This allows for better root growth, improves drainage to prevent pooling, and helps fertilizers work more effectively, leading to a thicker, healthier lawn suited to our local conditions.

Our landscape maintenance specifically addresses worn or broken edging, which is a frequent issue in Fort Collins yards. We remove the damaged material, prepare a clean trench, and install new, durable edging—such as steel or heavy-duty plastic—that can withstand freeze-thaw cycles and lawnmower impact. Proper edging keeps mulch in place, defines your landscape beds clearly, and reduces ongoing maintenance.

We recommend a seasonal maintenance schedule tailored to our climate. Spring and fall clean-ups are crucial for addressing edging damage from winter and preparing soil. Aeration is best done in early fall or spring. Regular maintenance visits allow us to spot small problems—like early signs of soil compaction or loose edging—before they become major, costly repairs for your home.
