What Are the Benefits of Landscaping?
The dictionary might define “landscapers” as those who arrange items in a landscape or garden attractively, but we believe the role goes far beyond that simple description. At Blue Tree Landscaping, our role as your landscaper encompasses much more than routine lawn maintenance and planting flowers.
Today, our clients seek a wide range of outdoor services, from expert lawn care and comprehensive landscape design to patio design and installation. We’re here to help transform your outdoor spaces into beautiful, functional areas that you can enjoy and cherish.
Design, Installation, and Much More!
Blue Tree clients appreciate our creative, practical, and personal approach to custom landscaping. Our goal is to create a beautiful landscape design that will enhance your life and grow increasingly magnificent over time.
On our first visit, we will study your existing landscape, and discuss your needs and dreams, from installing an in-ground pool, to creating the perfect landscape lighting environment that suits the way you use your outdoor space, to designing your perfect garden. Our clients include property owners who want to preserve and restore existing landscapes, homeowners seeking a complete landscape scheme for a newly constructed residence, and those who fall somewhere in between. Our role is to create a customized plan for your unique home site and lifestyle.
Personalize Your Landscape
Take a moment to think about what you want in your landscape.
- How would you like to use your yard and garden?
- What views are important from inside your home?
- What are your color preferences?
- Are children and pets a consideration?
- What plants and trees do you prefer?
- Is there a need for more privacy?
- Do you need more shade?
- Better use of outdoor space?
Your ideas will help our landscape designers personalize your landscape plan. Call us today at 610.222.0590 for all of your landscaping needs!
Garden Landscape
No garden landscape plan is complete without considering flowers. Annuals or perennials? Do you have a plan for all seasons? We’ll help you decide what should go into your flower beds.
The choice is always yours, but we’ll give you some expert guidance on how to keep your beds looking their best by selecting the proper plants for your space and providing care instructions that are easy for the home gardener to follow. Of course, we can help with the heavy lifting – fertilizing, weeding, mulching and other maintenance that might escape your best intentions.
Fencing
A fence is said to be the “picture frame” of your property, identifying you and your family to the neighborhood. At Blue Tree Landscaping, we will turn your outdoor living space into an extension of your home with a fencing solution that is beautiful, yet functional and durable.
Trees & Shrubs
Hand selected for height, hardiness, seasonal interest, shade, deer resistance, and screening, trees and shrubs may be used as foundation plantings, in islands or borders, and as individual specimen plantings.
Landscape Lighting
Landscape lighting extends the enjoyment of your landscape into the evening while adding security for your property and convenience for you as a homeowner. Appropriate lighting is an integral part of the landscape for both practical and aesthetic reasons.
Blue Tree incorporates landscape lighting into many of the designs we create for our clients. Landscape by day can change dramatically by night. And the look you can achieve with outdoor lighting can range from dramatic to romantic to practical. So how do you decide?
Here’s a quick list of questions to consider when deciding on your lighting plan. If you need help to decide what look you want, call us! We’ll be happy to work with you on garden lights that fit your lifestyle and your budget.
Landscape Outdoor Lighting Checklist:
- What is your objective in installing outdoor lighting? Do you want a dramatic, show stopping effect or do you need to provide a light source for dark areas of your property? Perhaps you want to incorporate some ambiance to your back deck, making it the perfect spot for a romantic al fresco dinner. Keep in mind that your plan might be different for different areas of your garden.
- How do you want to turn the lights on and off? Will you use a timer, or do you want to flip a switch?
- How much of your property are you interested in lighting? Do you want to illuminate your driveway and the walkways around your property? Would some up-lighting create a dramatic effect?
- Do you have an outdoor kitchen or dining space that requires special lighting? Workspace lighting for the cook, with ambient lighting for the seating area?
- Do you have any security concerns that can be minimized by a lighting solution?
- Do you want to show off your hardscape elements, like retaining walls, steps or a pool deck? Lighting can be used to highlight these areas.
- Are you interested in minimizing your power usage? If so, low voltage landscape lighting might be the best solution.
- Do you want onlookers to see your light fixtures or just the effect of your lighting choices?
- Pointing lights up or down can create an interesting visual effect. Are there places in your landscape for these techniques?
We work with major manufacturers like Vista Professional Outdoor Lighting and Kichler Lighting in bringing attractive lighting solutions to our clients. Blue Tree is your source for landscape lighting.
Spring / Fall Clean-Up and Beyond
Lawn care is often on our mind at the start of the growing season and at the end. Mulch, plant care, pruning, edging, winterizing beds, and leaf clean-up are all services that Blue Tree provides to our clients. In order to maintain a green and weed free lawn, we also work with our clients on an ongoing basis on customized turf maintenance programs.
Site Work
Blue Tree can resolve any drainage issues by adjusting swales, grading, and performing excavation. Keeping water away from your house is an important maintenance measure. There is nothing quite as destructive as water damage inside your basement or your home. Oftentimes we can correct water issues by regrading your yard to pull water away from your home. If you’re having a structural issue with your yard, talk to us to find out what your options are.
