  • Landscape Design

    We are driven by a few key ideas. In our view, functionality is central to any good design of any kind. We aim to create designs that are as functional as they are beautiful, because what good is an aesthetically pleasing landscape if you’re unable to take full advantage of what it has to offer? By taking into account existing factors like erosion we design landscapes that will remain in great shape for years to come.

    In this vein, we also take into consideration the climate. There are certain plants that, no matter how hard you try, simply won’t flourish because they aren’t meant to. They either require higher or lower temperatures, or more or less water, so we will work hard to provide you with alternate plants that are either native to the area or can exist in this climate. Not only does this create a garden that works with nature instead of against it, but it also reduces the energy you need to expend maintaining it!

    Finally, we strive to design landscapes that will blow you away with their beauty and intricacy. By highlighting existing features of the landscape, Blanko’s Landscaping creates a natural-looking area that plays up the strong suits of your property, while also adding elements to enhance it.

  • Small Space? Small Budget? No Problem!

    We occasionally have clients come to us with big ideas but only a small amount of space, wondering what can they do. Our creative and driven landscape artists are used to working with constraints of all kinds and can transform even the smallest patch of land into something beautiful. Don’t let the size of your property prevent you from having an outdoor space that you can feel proud of.

    With any project, it’s important to be realistic about your budget. If you’re looking to keep costs low, there is still a wealth of options out there for a creative and interesting design.

    In fact, some of the projects we’re the proudest of were done on smaller budgets!

  • Garden Design

    The first step in any garden project is to assess your needs and figure out what you’re hoping to achieve. Are you looking to create a relaxing space where you can soak up the sun, while the smell of flowers wafts under your nose? Is your intention to cultivate fresh fruits and vegetables? Is your garden going to serve a utilitarian purpose, an aesthetic one, or both?

    If your current garden is not living up to your expectations, or you’re starting from scratch, there’s a whole world of possibility, depending on your goals. Blanko’s Landscaping has become a top choice for residents looking to create a garden that goes above and beyond.

  • The Sun and The Plants

    There are a few important things to take into account when you start dreaming up your garden. First of all, it’s key to look at the amount of sun your lawn receives. Is it constant throughout the day? Are there sections that receive little to no sunshine at all? Certain plants can flourish with very little light, but others require multiple hours of sun each day.

    Another important aspect of your garden is the soil quality and acidity. Plants typically do best in soil that is at a pH of 6.5, but it is entirely possible that your soil is either more acidic or basic than this. We will first take a sample to assess the soil’s acidity, and, with this figure in mind, either work to balance it out through the addition of various materials, like limestone or sulfur.

    The final major consideration is how much time you are able to dedicate to your garden. If you’re constantly on the go, we will carefully select lower-maintenance plants that will still look beautiful without requiring large amounts of attention.

  • Gardens Are About More Than Plants!

    No matter how big or small your property is, there are elements you can add to your garden that don’t necessarily have to be planted. If you’re working with a larger plot of land and are looking to add a bit of flair to your garden, Blanko’s Landscaping is able to install beautiful, tasteful fountains or statues. For smaller areas, a stone pathway connecting your garden to the rest of your lawn is a wonderful choice and serves as a way to guide visitors around your property.
