Peters Professional Landscaping can reinvigorate your yard
By Patricia Nugent
Just ask Punxsutawney Phil, who graciously did not see his shadow on Groundhog Day last month—we are in for an early and glorious spring. Pack away your woolies and snow shovels. Hibernation is so last season.
Now that it’s time to head back outdoors, why not put yourself in the hands of a professional to design a beautiful al fresco living space this year?
From mulching, edging, hydroseeding and spring clean-up, to designing and installing landscapes, building patios, outdoor kitchens, firepits, ponds, fountains and gazebos, the experts at Peters Professional Landscaping have been beautifying outdoor living spaces since 1992.
“Each customer has a unique perception of what his or her dream yard would be,” says founder Chris Peters.
“Where we excel is in asking all the right questions to put a frame around that yard’s possibilities and bring it to life. We do not create cookie-cutter landscape solutions. That’s just not how we work.”
Spring Cleaning for Your Yard
General Manager Josh Riley says April and May are big months for mulch, and the sooner folks give them a call to get on the schedule, the better.
“Our storage containers are filled with every color, style and shred,” he says. “And since we buy in bulk, you can expect low prices, too.”
Sure, you can buy a bunch of bags of mulch from a big box store, have them sit in your driveway for weeks, and regret every backbreaking hour of laying it by yourself. Why not make a phone call and head out to enjoy your yard, instead? When you hire a professional, there is also a big difference in the final effect versus doing it yourself.
Mulch is an unsung hero in the world of landscaping. It plays a role in conserving moisture in the soil and suppresses weed growth. It also reduces erosion and sediment runoff.
Last year the forward-thinking gentlemen at Peters introduced the Mulch Mule, a novel piece of machinery that has a dispensary chute that evenly discharges perfectly fluffed and aerated mulch into wheelbarrows, utility vehicles or front-end loaders. With a rolling floor design, it can also do big bulk drops for people doing their own mulch.
In addition to mulch, Josh reports another component to spring yard work is taking stock of how your lawn weathered winter. Now is the perfect time to think about re-seeding bald patches to bring them back to life.
Under the Sun and Stars
Peters’ expansive stock of landscaping trees, bushes, shrubs and flowers is overflowing.
Josh 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.”
And once your yard is picture perfect, they can build you the proper outdoor oasis to enjoy it all, whether that means an expanded, multi-level patio, outdoor kitchen and bar, fire pit under arbors or pergolas, and fountains or ponds with professional lighting.
As a true one-stop shop for all things outdoors, they also offer super-durable Amish-made outdoor furniture, including dining tables and chairs, rockers, gliders and swings. So, sit back and take a load off this spring and summer. Peters has your back.
