This homeowner in Wayne wanted to refine a small wooded area bordering their driveway and street without losing the natural character of the landscape. The space had been left largely unmaintained, with accumulated leaves, debris, and overgrown plants detracting from its potential.
Preparing the Landscape
Our team began by carefully clearing out unwanted growth, creating a clean foundation while preserving the existing woodland feel. Once the area was prepped, we added a healthy layer of bio-soil to improve planting conditions and support long-term growth.
To ensure the new landscape blended seamlessly with its surroundings, we selected shade-tolerant shrubs. These plants thrive in lower-light conditions and naturally complement wooded environments, providing structure, texture, and year-round interest without looking overly formal.
Natural Touches
Along the edge of the driveway, we installed a border of river rock to prevent mulch and soil from washing onto the pavement. The river rock not only serves a practical purpose but also adds visual interest and clearly defines the new planting area.
The result is a refreshed, low-maintenance garden that feels like it has always belonged there. Best of all, the homeowner was absolutely thrilled with how the space was transformed with natural, polished improvements that enhance the property while respecting its woodland setting.
