What Our Planting Service Includes

Planting is more than digging a hole. It is careful planning, proper soil prep, and clean follow-through. For Ocean View homeowners, that means choosing plants that handle sandy soils, high winds, and the occasional salty breeze. Our residential service is designed to make that easy.

• Removal of existing shrubs and small trees, including roots where accessible, with haul-away and disposal
• New plant selection and placement for color, privacy, and year-round interest
• Soil improvement with compost and amendments suited to coastal, sandy conditions
• Correct planting depth, spacing, and staking for young trees
• Fresh mulch to lock in moisture and reduce weeds
• Optional drip irrigation tie-in or simple watering plan
• Neat cleanup so beds and hardscapes are ready to enjoy

Benefits For Ocean View Homeowners

Smart planting improves curb appeal and adds comfort to everyday life. Here is what a well-planned update delivers:

• Better first impression with color and texture from spring through fall
• Lower maintenance with the right plant in the right place
• Improved privacy and wind screening with layered shrubs and small trees
• Healthier beds thanks to proper soil prep, mulching, and irrigation options
• Higher enjoyment of outdoor spaces for relaxing and entertaining

Our Step-By-Step Planting Process

1) Walkthrough And Plan

We start with a short visit to learn your goals. Want more privacy along a fence? Need low, colorful shrubs by the porch? Prefer native plants for pollinators? We share ideas that fit your home, sun exposure, and HOA preferences. If your project grows beyond planting, you can explore how we build full outdoor upgrades on our services page.

2) Remove What No Longer Works

Out go overgrown shrubs, crowded plants, and struggling trees. We cut back, dig out what we can safely remove, and haul everything away. On request, we can coordinate stump grinding for small stumps so new plantings have room to thrive.

3) Prepare The Soil

Healthy plants start with healthy soil. We loosen compacted areas, blend in compost for nutrients, and shape beds to shed water properly. In sandy spots common across Ocean View and Millville, we add organic matter to help retain moisture.

4) Set Plants The Right Way

We position each plant for mature size and light needs, set at the correct depth, and backfill with amended soil. Trees are staked when needed, and root balls are watered in to remove air pockets. A clean edge defines each bed for a crisp look.

5) Mulch And Watering Plan

We finish with a neat layer of mulch to protect roots. We provide an easy watering schedule or can integrate drip lines if you want hands-off care. If you prefer a maintenance program, you can set up ongoing landscape maintenance to keep everything growing strong.

Plant Choices That Work Near The Coast

Homes around Ocean View, Bethany Beach, Dagsboro, and Fenwick Island face sandy soils, wind, salt spray, and deer pressure. We recommend a mix of native and coastal-tough plants that handle these challenges. Privacy hedges near patios, pollinator-friendly perennials in sunny beds, and evergreen structure by entryways create a balanced, attractive look all year. We help you pick options that fit your light, watering habits, and style.
