Landscaping · Barrie & Simcoe County
Gardens & planting.
Garden beds, planting, mulch, edging and decorative stone — designed to suit your light and soil, and to come back strong after a Simcoe County winter.
Overview
Beds that frame the yard.
Good garden beds do a lot of work: they soften the edges of patios and walls, frame the front of the house, and fill spots where grass never grew well anyway. They also need to be planned — the right plants for the sun and shade, the right spacing, and edges that keep the lawn out.
We shape new beds or rebuild tired ones, improve the soil, plant shrubs, perennials and trees suited to local winters, and finish with mulch or decorative stone and a clean edge.

Questions
Good to know.
Do you choose the plants?
We can, or we can work from your list. We’ll suggest plants that suit the light, soil and local winters.
Mulch or stone?
Mulch feeds the soil and suits planted beds; stone lasts longer and suits low-maintenance areas. We’ll recommend what fits.
Can you fix an overgrown bed?
Yes — cutting back, clearing out, dividing and re-mulching is a common job.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured.
Let’s plant something good.
