Soil Analysis and Improvement
North
Texas soil conditions vary dramatically over a very small area.
It is very important to condition the soil for better water
absorption, holding capacity, nutrient retention, and drainage.
NOTE: This is the most important portion of
the landscaping project. If the soil is not prepared correctly, the remaining
work is useless, no matter how well-planned.

Appropriate Plant Selection
Reeder's
Landscaping selects trees, shrubs, and ground covers that are
indigenous to North Texas, or plants that adapt to our unique
climate. Native plants have lower water consumption, fewer pest
problems, and lower fertilizer requirements than many non-adaptive,
exotic plants imported from other climatic regions.
NOTE: Non-native plants may be selected for
landscaping, although the client is cautioned that there is additional care
required to maintain these types of plants.

Practical Turf Areas and Selection
Grasses
in general have a higher water requirement than trees and shrubbery.
Practical and appropriate grass selection is a way of controlling
water consumption. Grass selection will vary based on desired
appearance, amount of shade/sunlight, maintenance level, and
cost.
NOTE: Many of our clients install smaller turf
areas due to maintenance issues alone.
