Check out the new patio and landscape we installed for Mr. and Mrs. O in Dallas. Their lovely home sits on a tiny zero-lot line backyard which didn’t afford much landscape space. On their wish list was a patterned concrete patio for their new hot tub plus plants that would soften all the concrete in […]
“I had my plants installed 8 years ago and they are the same size today as they were when they put into our landscape?!?” I hear that statement often when I’m out on landscape project calls.

Last week I posted a photo on the Village Green’s Facebook page. The photo which you can see here, shows a lawn that isn’t using Village Green for fertilization and weed control. As you can see from this photo, there is a lot of green in their yard which you would think is good. It […]
