<div class="mceTemp">We were called out to provide a landscaping face lift for the front of this lovely home just north of Frederick, MD.  We added a few shrubs, some perennialls, and mulch to create curb appeal.  This home sits very close to its neighbors. They were all exclaiming how much improvement was added to the home, and that they wanted to follow up with something similiar.</div>
<div class="mceTemp">What they were really saying was &#8211; we want to add VALUE to our property like you did.</div>

<p>A great mulch job makes a property&#8217;s landscape POP!  When curb appeal is on your mind, don&#8217;t short change yourself in the landscape department.  A well manicured and maintained landscape will created the most value to your property.  When it comes to mulching your trees and shrubs,</p>
<p> Look for three key things.</p>
<p>1.  Removal of &#8220;caked, old&#8221; mulch</p>
<p>2.  Well defined edge between turf and garden beds</p>
<p>3.  Smooth application of fresh mulch</p>
<p>Bonus Step = Use high quality mulch and a pre-emergent weed control</p>
<p><strong>SPRING SPECIAL</strong></p>
<p> BUY 4yds get the 5th FREE    call for details</p>
<p>For mulch we prefer <a href="http://www.hideys.com">www.hideys.com</a> and Bussard Brothers in New Market, MD</p>

<p>The benefit we created for this homeowner was providing curb appeal for this lovely home.  The home is very attractive and unique on the inside, however you could hardly get to the front door.  Since the homeowner is preparing to list the home, it will show much better than before.</p>
<p>We love creating dramatic improvements in landscape appearance.  The only negative feature is that you may mistakenly drive by your home, when we are finished.</p>
