TYPES OF COMMON PLANTS
01
Ornamental Grasses
Ornamental grasses are a type of grass that is grown for its aesthetic value, rather than for its ability to be used as a food source or for turf. Ornamental grasses come in a wide range of sizes, shapes, and colors, and can add visual interest to any landscape.
02
Flowering Plants
Flowering plants are plants that produce flowers, which are the reproductive organs of the plant. Flowering plants come in different colors, sizes, and shapes, and can add both visual interest and a pop of color to your property.
03
Shrubs
Shrubs are woody plants that are typically smaller than trees but larger than herbs. They can be either deciduous (losing their leaves in winter) or evergreen (keeping their leaves year-round), and are often used as border plants or foundation plants in landscaping.
04
Shade Trees
Shade trees can provide relief from the hot summer sun, and can also help to reduce energy costs by cooling the home. Some of the most popular shade trees used for landscaping include maple trees, oak trees, and elm trees.
Don't spend another summer struggling with your lawn, let us help you achieve the perfect landscaping for your home.
