Landscape design & installation in Madison, MS
A specific design for each home, then the same crew puts it in the ground.
Custom design and install
A plan for your yard, not a template.
This is the work Groundcare is built around: custom landscape design and installation.
In our own words, that means a specific design for each customer, tailored to their needs.
So the first step is listening. What do you want the front of the house to say?
Where does the sun sit at four in the afternoon? What do you never want to prune again?
From there we lay out the bed lines, choose plants that hold up in a Mississippi summer, and build it.
Whether you need a few repairs or a complete landscape overhaul, the plan is drawn around your home.
When it is in season
Planned any month. Trees and shrubs settle in best from fall through early spring.

Local knowledge
Plants that like it here
Madison sits in USDA hardiness zone 8b, where summers are long, humid and hot, and winters are short.
The plants that carry a yard here are the Southern standards: azaleas, crape myrtles, hollies and magnolias.
Camellias, gardenias, loropetalum and Knock Out roses fill in the color through the rest of the year.
Fall through early spring is the easy planting window. Roots get months to settle in before the heat.
Good design also plans for size. A shrub that fits the window today should still fit it in ten years.
That is the difference between a landscape you maintain and one you fight.

Questions
Landscape design, answered.
Do you install the designs yourselves?
Yes. Groundcare offers custom landscape design and installation. The crew that plans it plants it.
How is a landscape design quoted?
Each one is custom.
The quote depends on the size of the beds, the plants chosen and the prep the yard needs.
When is the best time to plant in Madison?
Fall through early spring is ideal for trees and shrubs.
Planting in summer works too, but it needs more water.
