Lawn Care & Landscaping in Gretna

What should I plant in my Gretna gardens to improve my yard and landscaping?

Before you decide on the layout of your residential landscaping in Gretna you need to look at all of the varieties available to you. I have seen different styles in this area so you have plenty to choose from. 


You can choose from just doing regular lawn maintenance with lush green grass and a few strategically placed shrubs and flowers, or you can go all out with palm trees and some Indian Hawthorne.  If your home has that Floridian style or a nice pastel color you can choose the path of a tropical style landscape and not look out of place. 


They key to choosing the right style and plant types is to know what style your home is and if it will fit in with that style of home. If your residence has a pool in the backyard, you may choose to use the tropical theme around the pool instead of in front yard landscaping. 


Commercial landscaping for restaurants and stores have included mostly holly trees and magnolia trees surrounded by small shrubs accenting the corners of the gardens. You will also see much more landscape lighting and some signage thrown into the landscaping to maximize the use of very tight spaces. Even the hotels have used large trees on the corners, shrubs, colored accent flowers and grass maintenance. 


What will your favorite style be? Contact our designers to see what works best in your frontyard landscape or commercial landscaping project.
