Landscaping Winter Damage

Winter months in Wisconsin can be very harsh on your home’s landscaping. Here are some helpful tips to keep these areas looking healthy and beautiful after the snow melts.

1.) Winter winds can cause Evergreen branches to turn brown and die. These areas of “Winter Burn” can, generally, be pruned off to ensure further healthy development for these plants. If there is significant winter burn damage to a plant, we recommend removing the plant and installing a new one in that location that is better-suited to handling the harsh winter winds.

2.) Prune any broken or cracked limbs off of large trees and shrubs that may have been damaged over the winter months. Be sure to remove any limbs that have fallen and inspect all large trees for any other significant damage.

3.) Check plants for salt damage. Driveway and walkway salt can be very damaging to certain types of plants. Prune off any minor salt damage to plants. Replace plants in the spring with more salt-tolerant plants as needed.

4.) Clear off any lingering snow, ice, and debris from plants, shrubs, patios, and walkways. Check for any new cracks in concrete or any areas that may have settled between autumn and spring.

5.) Inspect all downspouts, downspout pipes, and downspout extensions to make sure they are all in working order and connected properly. Make any repairs and modifications as needed.

Retaining Walls

Although beautiful, can a “Double-Red Knock Out” Shrub Rose help fix the flooding in your basement? No. Your new swale may have stopped rain water from pooling in your yard, but can it “WOW” your in-laws? Our guess is probably not. While these aspects of landscaping and drainage maintenance are certainly important in preserving the atmosphere and structural integrity of your home, the installation of a retaining wall is one of the few landscaping services that can effectively combine aesthetic appeal with drainage-functionality.

Landscape atmosphere
Retaining walls are installed when earth needs to be retained in a certain area. This design feature can break up a slope or hill into multiple flat sections that can be used to install a level footpath as well as a beautiful area for flowers and other perennials to overlook your outdoor living area. By carrying a variety of different blocks, our company ensures that you are provided with plenty of options to meet your budget, color, and texture preferences, assuring enjoyment and quality for years to come.

When we excavate the earth to make room for a properly compacted base for your retaining wall, we are often presented with the perfect opportunity to use the excess dirt in a way that benefits your home through the aspect of drainage. By creating a swale behind your new wall, surface runoff can be effectively captured at the base of a sloping yard and moved away from your home (seen in the image below). This will ensure potentially damaging water does not reach your foundation.

First Impressions in Landscaping

As far as first impressions go, a well-maintained, notable landscape is extremely important. Your landscaping is the first thing a guest sees when arriving at your home and the last scene they see when departing. To achieve a positive, memorable first impression, homeowners should not only invest on the inside of their property, but the exterior and landscaping as well.

Selling

When selling, one of the best things to do is to freshen up the landscape to give a great first impression to future buyers and to increase your resale value. If a buyer sees an overgrown, unkempt jungle in the front of the home, they are most likely going to think that the inside of the home is the same way.  It immediately turns potential buyers off and leaves your property in a negative light for the rest of the tour. Pruning or removing overgrown shrubs and weeds is very influential, as this action helps your landscape look neat and tidy. Additionally, many new homeowners prefer a blank canvas when it comes to landscaping; this way, they can create their own vision to meet their personal outdoor tastes.

Friends & Family

When guests, neighbors, and family see your property for the first time, the way your house looks and feels to them at that moment will last in their minds for years. This is the reason why homeowners should strive to wow guests that are invited to their home for the first time. Though the removal/pruning of overgrown shrubs and weeds are a must (especially around walkways and entrances to the home), we recommend investing in the creation of an outdoor livable space. This can include a patio, decorative fire pit, pergola, and walkways. These additions to your new home will make your house the choice location for family get-togethers, barbecues, and parties.

The home is the main course and the landscape is the garnishments to make the main course more appetizing!

Whatever landscaping goals you hope to accomplish for your home, remember that any exterior work that you do should complement the existing features of your home. When a new guest visits your home for the first time, he or she should feel as though the transition between outdoor and indoor living is seamless. Accomplish this and guests’ first impression of your home will be one of captivation for years to come.

Low-Maintenance Landscaping Tips

With less time for gardening and landscape maintenance, many of our customers have asked for products that will keep maintenance to a minimum, as well as plants that involve little-to-no daily or weekly upkeep. Here are a few tips and products that our design and installation team have compiled to help our customers explore different low-maintenance landscaping options.

Dwarf Plants. Dwarf plants are simply smaller versions of larger plants. Less water will be needed to keep dwarf plants looking healthy and radiant due to their smaller size, minimizing the time you would otherwise spend watering your plants. Additionally, compact plants with a POP of color can significantly add beauty and atmosphere to your outdoor living space!

Perennials. There are many different types of perennials but, for people who don’t have time to maintain their landscaping, the trick is to make selections that are grow slowly and do not spread or multiply. Perennials such as “Palace Purple Coral Bells” or “Stella de Oro Daylilies” are drought-tolerant and resistive to overgrowing without sacrificing glowing color.

Evergreen Shrubs. Just like perennials, certain types of evergreen shrubs are terrific for property-owners seeking low-maintenance landscaping. Due to their low growth rate and unique color, “Blue Star Junipers” and “Green Velvet Boxwoods” are used extensively since they almost never need to be pruned.

New Mulch. Adding a layer of mulch to planting beds can drastically reduce weeds, therefore reducing your time removing said weeds. In addition, mulch helps to retain moisture for plants, often minimizing the number of times that you will end up having to water them.

Stone Mulch. Unfortunately, normal shredded mulch needs to be replaced every few years for optimal performance and aesthetics. Decorative stone mulch can be installed to create a near maintain-free bed area. This style of mulch comes in a variety of colors and finishes that can complement the colors and textures of your home and outdoor living space.

Bed Edging. For a definitive look around your planting beds, we highly recommend bed edging. This product supplies a decisive border between your grass and beds, maintaining a clean look while also making grass-trimming much easier.
