Location: Honey Brook, PA

Objective: The home owner was having trouble with keeping up with her extensive landscaping beds. Also her foundation bed had no plants at all in it except for some weeds growing. She had already decided to have some of the beds eliminated but wanted help with the ones that would remain.

For this project we spent some time removing all of the weeds from the beds. To do this we mostly hand pull them with knives to get as much of the roots as possible. Next we planted some shrubs and perennials which will help to suppress the weeds once they mature. Finally, we spread a weed preventative before we mulched to help stop seeds from germinating and growing into more weeds. In the end she was so happy with the results of the front yard that she called us again to finish up the back yard.
