Sunday math.

Today is May 31. The Midwest landscaping season runs about 22 weeks — May through early October. That means we're already 4 weeks in. 18 weeks left.

If you've got a project you want done THIS year — a patio, a retaining wall, a full bed redesign, irrigation, a native-plant installation — now is the moment. Booked-out crews push everything back. The folks who message us in May get on the calendar. The folks who wait until July get "we can do it in late August."

We're proudly Wild Ones members and we love designing with native Missouri plants — they thrive on Missouri weather instead of fighting it, they feed pollinators, and they look incredible.

Two slots left for June installs as of this morning. Coffee's on us if you want to chat. ☕🌿

Imagine waking up on a Saturday in June, coffee in hand, and walking out to this.

Not the half-finished patio project you've been promising yourself for three summers. Not the dead spots in the lawn you keep meaning to reseed. Not the mulch that's faded to gray. This.

Here's the thing nobody tells you about hiring a landscaper: the people who book in May get done in June. The people who wait until "we'll figure it out next year" are still saying that in 2027.

Free quote. Honest timeline. No pressure. Just a conversation about what you actually want your yard to feel like.

Friday yard cheat sheet: what to prune in late May, and what to leave the heck alone.

✂️ PRUNE NOW: Spring bloomers that are done flowering — lilac, forsythia, azalea, viburnum. They set next year's flower buds in summer, so cut now or you'll cut off next spring's show.

✂️ PRUNE NOW: Boxwood, yew, juniper shaping. Light shaping only — never more than ⅓ at once.

🚫 LEAVE ALONE: Oak trees. We're in the oak-wilt window (April–July). Pruning oaks in summer is how oak wilt spreads — it's killing trees across Missouri. Wait until fall.

🚫 LEAVE ALONE: Hydrangea (mophead/lacecap) and any summer-bloomer. They're setting flower buds right now.

The 30-second rule: if it bloomed in spring, prune it. If it blooms in summer or fall, leave it. Easy.

Behind every "looks amazing!" photo on this page, there's about 40 hours that looked like this.

Loading. Hauling. Grading. Re-grading because the customer's drainage was worse than we thought. Measuring twice. Cutting once. Stopping for a Gatorade. Going back to work.

When you hire a landscaping crew, you're not really paying for the result you see on Day 7. You're paying for the 39 hours of dirty work between Day 1 and Day 6 that make Day 7 possible.

That's what we do. Quietly. Every day. For 30 years.

Anybody can stack rocks. A retaining wall that actually holds — for 20 years, through Missouri freeze-thaw cycles, against a hillside full of water pressure — that's a different conversation.

Swipe through 👉

The front (slides 1 & 2): clean lines, level courses, weep holes in the right spots. The back (slide 3): the part nobody sees — proper base prep, gravel backfill, drain tile. This is where 90% of retaining walls fail, and it's the part that costs us an extra day per job to do right.

If you've got a slope eating your yard, a wall that's bulging, or you're tired of mowing a hill — let's talk. We build them the way we'd build them at our own houses. Farmington, Park Hills, Bonne Terre, Desloge, Festus, all of St. Francois County.

30 years of "yes, we can hold that back." 💪 (573) 366-0460

Memorial Day weekend is in the rearview. Now comes the part of summer where your lawn either thrives or struggles — and the next 3 weeks decide which one.

Three things to do THIS week:

🌱 Skip the fertilizer push. Cool-season fescue is winding down, not ramping up. Hitting it with high-N nitrogen now stresses it for July.
🌱 Sharpen your mower blade. Dull blades shred grass tips, which turn brown and let disease in. (Tip: any small-engine shop in town will sharpen one for $10.)
🌱 Water before sunrise, not after sundown. Evening water sits on the blade overnight → fungal disease city.

Want a crew that handles all of this on a route? We've got a handful of Tuesday and Thursday slots opening up post-Memorial Day. (573) 366-0460 📍

Today we remember.

Memorial Day isn't about us. It's about every man and woman who put on the uniform and didn't come home — and the families who carry that weight every day, not just today.

If you served, thank you. If you lost someone, we see you. If you have a moment of quiet today before the grill starts up, take it.

Sunday thought: what if your yard worked with Missouri's weather instead of fighting it?

That's what native plantings do. Coneflower, black-eyed Susan, little bluestem, butterfly w**d — these have been thriving in Missouri soil for thousands of years. They handle the drought weeks, the surprise May frosts, the August heat domes. They feed the pollinators we need. And they look incredible.

We're proud members of because we believe the best yards aren't the ones that need the most chemicals — they're the ones that need the least.

Want to design a corner of your property around natives this year? We do landscape design consults across St. Francois County. Coffee's on us. ☕

Heading to the garden center for mulch this weekend? Don't guess. Here's the napkin math:

🌱 1 cubic yard of mulch covers about 100 sq ft at 3" deep.
🌱 (3" is the sweet spot — deep enough to hold moisture and choke out w**ds, shallow enough that your plants don't suffocate.)

So a 10x10 bed = 1 yard. A 20x10 bed = 2 yards. Easy.

Pro tip from the crew: pull the mulch back about 2 inches from the base of trees and shrubs. The "mulch volcano" you see piled up everywhere is slowly killing those plants. Doughnut, not volcano. 🍩

Got a beds-and-mulch refresh on the list this year? We do bulk delivery + install across St. Francois County. Skip the trips, skip the wheelbarrow, skip the back pain. (573) 366-0460
