Desert Vine News – March 2012

Thank you once again for your continued support and patronage.  The first quarter of 2012 continues to provide opportunities and optimism.  Consider an evaluation of the layout of your property and begin to plan for a light renovation.  Please review advanced tree trimming and thinning or granite (rock) topping to the diminishing coverage of existing aggregate.

This is the time to commence cutting-back of lantana and bird of paradise to permit new growth.

In March and April, review the installation of new rock, granite, trees and shrubs.  These ideas are the most cost effective ways to achieve that makeover look.

Please contact us at 602.435.0812 to discuss optional services and to establish your no obligation appointment.

A multitude of landscape upgrade options are always available.  Once again, now is the perfect time of year to review the following:

 

Consider adding a Flower Valve

An additional valve will provide an option of adding pots near the front door and backyard patio area that can provide flowers and smaller plants an elevated bedding location with year round color. 

 

Consider planting new Desert Plants

Add several (5) five-gallon shrubs to an unsightly side or back yard wall providing new evergreen and color options.

 

It’s Time to Trim Trees

Call for a free estimate.  Now is a perfect time to remove branches from roof locations.  Thin those Mesquites and Palo Verde trees that have become an irritation.

 

Call and Schedule that Clean-Up

It is time for that clean-up. Even if you retain ongoing maintenance, this is the perfect time to contract optional services.  De-thatching, new borders, low voltage lighting, a new shut-off valve are some examples of deferred optional services.  Please call to schedule your Clean-up today.  We will provide an estimate and deliver landscape changing service with half and full day options.

 

Granite or Rock

Topping of your existing granite or rock for the front, side and backyard is the least expensive way to immediately improve the appeal of your property.  Friends and Neighbors will comment on the renovated look and feel.  Call today for an estimate with River Rock and Wash options.

Thank you for your continued patronage.

October 2011

Thank you once again for your continued support and patronage.  Once again, do your part to provide opportunities and optimism for our Country and economy. 

IT IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER!  ITS HERE!  MILDER WEATHER!  We are scalping and installing lawns.  This is the process that converts the Bermuda lawn into a much more cosmetically appealing turf that will last through late March.

Our October supply special is Lawn Dethatching. From: 160.00  *

  • Pricing varies considerably based upon size of lawn, subject to dump fees.

Ensure that you always have plenty of water available and consider calling a Contractor for project assistance regardless of size.

Review your clock (timer), anti-siphon valves, in-line valves, sprinklers, drip lines and emitters.  Existing client clocks are being adjusted to reflect seasonal watering cycles.  New clients may want to schedule an evaluation to ensure proper programming and irrigation. 

Once again, please review advanced tree trimming and thinning or granite (rock) topping to the diminishing coverage of existing aggregate.
