The right time for "spring landscape or rooftop gardener's work"

The importance of Spring Garden Services, irrigation system and landscape maintenance is obvious. The right time for "spring landscapeor rooftop gardener's work" however is late winter especially in the typically mild NYC climate. Several reasons for this and I will write a blog about it later. Landscaping, true landscaping in my mind isn't cutting grass and blowing off driveways although landscape maintenance services do include the need for a good clean up. Landscaping is landscape design, continuous garden design improvements.

Mild climate does not diminish the fact that the NYC roof gardener faces challenges that the typical NY landscape company or look and feel of the outdoor space to what the client imagined or wishes they could have. Simply ensuring that that the gardens become established is a good way to start a true landscape or garden maintenance service. Healthy, mature trees, shrubs and perennial flowers are most appreciated and look great on their own, increasing in value, increasing the value of the property and standing in the intended purpose they were designed to fulfill. For example, A privacy hedge that is well cared for will give much better return on investment and of course look great. I would rather have to shear a strong growing hedge than replace spindly weak and sparse trees that do not fulfil the landscape design goals even years after installation.

By ensuring that the trees and shrubs that make up the foundation of our gardens or landscapes thrive we can then focus on improving and personalizing our outdoor spaces (enjoying them, even!) and not continuously throw time and money at replacing plantings that should last for decades when properly planted and cared for.
In NYC garden design and landscape services industry I often see trees and shrubs that are placed by NYC florists or general labour in planters for a NYC penthouse garden that barely stay alive, never grow and often can be pulled out with one hand even though they have been in place for a few seasons. I am still amazed at the shortcuts and lack of even standard garden practice by the NYC gardeners and wonder why they choose this trade over maybe something more fitting such as McDonalds. Not to say that I haven't made my mistakes! Wow. There is no real training to become a master gardener in the urban garden design trade. Self proclaimed master gardener, that is, with a few people who actually agree. We aren't talking about a vegetable garden.
I did have extensive landscape knowledge and formal training, hands on garden experience such as planting huge trees, shrubs, flowers and learning through a decade of amateur landscaping and ornamental horticulture before breaking into the Manhattan rooftop garden and terrace garden services trade. "Gardening in a box?" I thought...well, how hard can it be? Just as my first few plantings didn't do too well in the traditional landscapes of the high end Long Island homes I landscaped, the first few rooftop garden plantings didn't go so well either.
Over the several years working in the NYC garden and landscape industry and always leaning towards gardening as my favourite part of the business, I took the time to learn, ponder and master the techniques to sustain the beautiful (and often expensive) plantings of the NYC penthouse gardens, roof gardens and terraces.

Winterizing Your Irrigation System |
After such a harsh and record cold winter the ever important Spring Garden service, Landscaping, drip irrigation and lawn sprinkler services by New York Plantings Garden Designers and Landscape Contracting is key to the good health of your landscaping, NYC greenroof or rooftop garden. With decades of hands on landscape and gardening enthusiasm, (not ever cutting grass!) We still look forward to the Spring Landscape and gardening services season.
New clients to meet and the support of our core garden and landscape clients is motivation to shake off the frost and get to work.
NY Plantings Garden Designers does work year round and hopefully will continue to grow into a most established and revered landscape design and build firm. That said, you can make appointments early with your NYC landscape or garden company and ensure that you have a head start to protect and give your plantings a boost before the drying winds and warm days take the strength stored for Spring from your plantings. In the ground or a traditional landscape, the significance of this early spring garden service is less urgent.
