When it came time to re-imagine their front landscape at their home in Richardson`s Reservation Neighborhood, they gave me a call to see what Village Green could do. Steve and Cathy had a list of things they wanted to address in the re-landscape. First and foremost was the lack of grass in their front yard. As is the case with many Richardson homes, mature trees didn`t allow enough sunlight for the grass to thrive as it once did. Our solution was a combination of groundcover coupled with a nice sitting area they could enjoy. Another major issue was an area in their lawn that would form a pool after heavy rain from the water coming off of their roof. Our first step was having our stonemason, Andres, lay a beautiful circular flagstone patio with a pathway made from large stones. After this was complete, we worked with a gutter company to install an extra downspout connected to pipes that drained out to the curb, which stopped the water from the roof from flooding their front lawn. Other features of the project were Edward Gaucher abelias added on the corners to frame the home with red, flirt nandinas in front of their windows to add some color and feathery texture for our landscape plantings. We used Colorado euonymus as a ground cover, and in front of their long porch, we used cast iron plant. This project`s final piece was their sprinkler system, which they thought would need to be replaced. After inspecting the system and chatting with Steve, I convinced him that their existing system would be fine. With a little TLC and a day`s work by Village Green, we were able to fix a wiring issue and replaced most of the sprinkler heads to get their irrigation system working efficiently. I`m happy to report that Steve and Cathy love the look of their new front landscape. Steve had nothing but nice things to say about Hannah and our entire landscape team, complimenting their work and flexibility to make changes as needed. The best compliment, though, is Steve and Cathy`s plan to have Village Green help them re-work their backyard in the future.

His latest home is in charming downtown McKinney, Texas, and even though it is new, the design is classic to be in line with the neighborhood. Mr. N. wanted that feeling translated into the landscape. The goal for the landscape design was one that delivered a lot of colors yet remained simple. The original landscape was very overgrown and crowded the foundation of the home, which detracted from the street view. Village Green pulled his beds out further away from his foundation and home to give more depth and allow for the layering of our many plant choices. We also extended the plants along the driveway, which softens the front entry drive. As you can see in the video, the project turned out great, and Mr. N. is another happy Village Green landscape customer...for the third time! If you have a job in mind, Village Green would love the opportunity to discuss your project. Founded in 1980, Village Green is a family-owned and operated lawn and landscape company. Our landscapes start at $2,500 and go up to $100,000 + on large scale projects.

Mr. and Mrs. T called Village Green about some ideas and solutions for their backyard. They had finished installing a beautiful pool and that plus their arbor and stunning patterned concrete their back patio was nearly summer ready. The only problem was they needed something to look at besides concrete, their fence, and the neighbor`s roof lines. What they needed was a landscape that would compliment their amazing work and would solve some of their issues. In today`s video tour I walk you through their patio paradise and explain our choice of solutions in the design and with our plant selection. I`m happy to report that Mr. and Mrs. T are delighted with their new landscape and our hard-working Village Green landscape team. They loved working with Hannah and Emmanuel and were sure to let me know how friendly and professional our team was on their project. They now have the perfect patio paradise to entertain this summer and beyond. If you have a patio that could use some help, I would love the opportunity to discuss your project. Our landscapes start at $2,500 and we are currently booking jobs for the summer.

Sun, water, and food (fertilizer.) Mr. H unfortunately didn`t have enough sun in his backyard because of his large trees and came to us for a solution. Mr. H is a model customer in that he had very specific requests for this project. Mr. H gave me his list which was: • Low maintenance and care • Limited entertaining for small groups (3-5) people • Patio, plants, beds, and plants • Patio surface must provide a safe walking surface and not be slippery • A natural style that fosters serenity. Not modern styling • Increase the size of the patio • Designed around the fact that the main viewing area would be the kitchen nook window As you can see in my video tour, Village Green delivered on Mr. H`s new landscape. From a stunning patterned concrete patio to the beautiful yet low maintenance landscape that does double duty screening his backyard from the neighbor`s roof and windows. Mr. H now has his serene outdoor space and Village Green has another satisfied landscape customer. If you have any lawn or landscape projects in mind Village Green would love to earn your business.
