Landscaping & Design FAQ for Memphis Homeowners

How often should Memphis homeowners get landscaping & design?
Given Memphis's hot, humid summers averaging 91°f with high dewpoints, most homeowners benefit from landscaping & design at least once a year. Year-round termite swarm monitoring (very high pressure) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Memphis most need landscaping & design?
Brick and wood-frame bungalows throughout Shelby County and Ranch-style homes in suburban Collierville and Germantown are the most common home types in Memphis and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
How much does landscaping a backyard cost?
Simple planting and mulching projects run $1,000–$5,000. Full design-build landscapes with hardscaping, irrigation, and lighting typically range from $10,000–$50,000+ depending on scope.
Do I need a landscape design before installation?
For simple projects, an informal plan may suffice. For larger projects with multiple elements, a professional design prevents costly mistakes and ensures everything works together.
What plants work best in my area?
Native and regionally adapted plants require less water and maintenance while supporting local ecosystems. We select plants based on your hardiness zone, sun exposure, soil type, and water availability.
How long does it take for new landscaping to mature?
Most plants look established within 1–2 growing seasons. Trees take longer but provide structure and shade that makes the entire landscape look complete.
