Here’s why the team at Peters Professional Landscaping says you’ve still got time to mulch
By Patricia Nugent
Are you punctually challenged? Do you wait until the last minute for everything, enjoy running through airports to catch a plane, or showing up “fashionably late” to parties?
The good news: When it comes to getting mulch for your yard for this particularly rainy year, it’s actually not too late—and there may even be a few other benefits to putting the call off until June.
According to Peters Professional Landscaping General Manager Josh Riley, they are still getting daily calls for mulch service.
Two advantages of putting off mulch until June are the spring blossoms have dropped and won’t be detracting from your finished look, he says. And the dye from the mulch will last longer throughout the summer than someone who mulched early, back in April.
The storage containers at Peters are currently filled with every color, style and shred.
And their stock of landscaping trees, bushes, shrubs and flowers is also overflowing.
Owner Chris Peters reports they are adept at helping folks select the lowest maintenance, highest visually impactful combination of stock that will bloom spring, summer and fall.
“Professional landscaping is a balance of art and science,” he says. “We mix different colors, shapes and species for the most pleasing, balanced look.”
Sure-Fire Outdoor Dreamscapes
Although the Summer Solstice doesn’t signal the official start of the season until Friday, June 21, the folks at Peters have been busy beautifying local landscapes by yard clean-up, designing and installing beds, and building patios.
“We enjoy working with customers to bring their unique vision of what is possible to their outdoor living,” says Chris.
Pretty much anything you do indoors is making its way out, whether that means an outdoor kitchen, reading nook, or bar with big television to catch all the big games with friends.
“For people who are starting from scratch, we lay a patio area with Unilock Pavers, which come with a lifetime warranty for parts, since we are an Authorized Contractor,” says Josh.
“Our average jobs used to be laying patios with just enough room for a grill and a table. Now clients want to enjoy dining and so much more in their backyard oasis.”
They create the mood you’re looking for, whether it’s a small patio with a built-in firepit for you and a loved one to enjoy, or a multi-level patio with arbors, pergolas, a bar and kitchen, exterior lighting and trickling fountains that’s fit for hosting huge parties.
