Rejuvenate Your Garden

For those who like to run under their own steam but need a fresh start, a garden renovation will help you hit the ground running.

Who is a good fit for a garden renovation?

Are you happy with your overall plant selection and layout, but have a garden that needs a push in the right direction? Booking North Arrow Landscapes for a garden renovation can provide you with a solid starting point.

It's OK if you're feeling stressed about the state of your gardens when you first contact us. There is always a solution, and we certainly have the skill set and artistic eye to achieve amazing results no matter what we're starting with!

What is involved in a garden renovation?

What we do depends on what you need to rejuvenate your garden and begin its restoration.

Perhaps you would like us to add definition to a wall of foliage in a mixed tree and shrub border, open the canopies for increased light and airflow, reinvigorate tired plants, or generally make it look like "somebody's home".

We can also help with:

  • Transplanting existing plants
  • Pruning trees or shrubs
  • Removing or replacing plants
  • Weeding existing beds
  • Adding fresh compost, soil, or mulch

Replacement vs. Renewing

North Arrow Landscapes works hard to make the most out of your time and your budget. The exact route we take depends on your goals and desired timeline.

Starting fresh

When time is limited for your project, or perhaps if you are looking to upgrade your garden before selling your home, you might consider replacing plants for more immediate "wow" factor. This approach requires less time investment, and will produce results more quickly.

Renewing what’s there

On the other hand, choosing to rejuvenate your existing plants may require more patience, as overgrown shrubs and trees often require time to recover after pruning. However, the wait is worthwhile as mature plants in the garden can have far more value than newer, younger plants.
