MG Landscape
A custom garden should look considered from its first season and mature gracefully from there. We plan beds around sun, soil, drainage, and how you use the yard, then plant with proper spacing, well-prepared soil, and clean edges, so the garden complements the house and the hardscape. Each installation is finished with mulch and a thorough watering, ready to settle in.
A one-time project. Seasonal refreshes or additions can follow once the garden is established.
On site: Typically half a day to two days, depending on bed size, plant count, and access.
What The Visit Includes
- A site walk to review sun, soil, and existing utilities
- Plant selection suited to local conditions and your preferred level of care
- Bed layout, edging, and soil preparation
- Planting at the correct depth and spacing for mature size
- Mulch finish and a thorough watering on installation day
- Packaging and debris cleared, and lawn edges tidied
- Simple aftercare notes to help the plants establish
How We Handle The Details
- Utility lines are located before any digging begins.
- Deer, road salt, and deep shade are all considered when choosing plants.
- Edges and mulch are finished cleanly against the lawn and hardscape.
- If water collects where a bed is planned, we address the drainage before planting.
Questions Before You Book
Do you design the garden, or install what I choose?
Both. Many homeowners bring a direction, such as color, privacy, or low upkeep, and we turn it into a plant list and layout that suits the site. If you already have a designer's plan, we install it with the same care.
Will it look sparse at first?
It may look open in the first season, then fill in a little more each year. Planting too closely for an instant effect leads to crowding and disease later. We'll show you how the garden will look at maturity.
What about watering after installation?
New plants need steady moisture while their roots establish. We water thoroughly on installation day and leave clear guidance for the following weeks. If you have irrigation, we can review coverage for the new beds.
Can this include trees, or only flowers and shrubs?
Shrubs, perennials, ornamental grasses, and smaller ornamental trees are all included where the site suits them. Larger trees may be quoted separately under Tree Services.
