A Pleasant Park

The client asked us to replace a non-functional, water-guzzling lawn with drought-adapted perennials and groundcovers and now Bay Area commuters get to see our work every day!

It’s like a nature drive among freeways! Creeping Myoporum spreads quickly and smothers most weeds. It thrives with very little water – best with a monthly soaking. Kikuyu grass is creeping in at the lower left hand corner, but that weed needs…

The trees were showing signs of stress, thinning foliage, and poor overall vigor during the winter months. While cooler weather and dormancy can sometimes make ornamental trees appear subdued, it was clear there were underlying health concerns contributing to their decline. After inspection, our arborists identified a combination of factors impacting the trees: Thrips activity affecting foliage health Nutrient…
