I need a low-maintenance, easy to care for landscape.

Ginkgo Landscape Design can create an easy-care landscape for you thru proper plant choice and placement and by attention to construction details. However, all gardens require a minimum level of maintenance.  Typically 2-4 times a year, a maintenance visit is recommended. Weeding, mulching, general pruning, and cleanup are the usual tasks.

 Probably the most important requirement for a new garden is adequate watering (late spring thru early fall). Despite Seattle’s rainy reputation, we have a definite and consistent drought period over the summer and into early fall. Ginkgo strongly recommends installing an irrigation system to take care of the watering tasks. It saves a lot of time and money and protects your investment. You can also go on vacation and not worry about it.

Along with maintenance services, Ginkgo offers tips and instructions to clients who want to take care of their landscapes themselves. Also, check our website often for new tips and suggestions and fun things to do.
