This was a full rip-out and redesign for the Lonneman family in Hebron. Everything came out - old plants, old beds, all of it. We started completely fresh and built a new landscape plan that was designed specifically to complement the new driveway and stamped concrete walkway that was going in at the same time. When hardscape and landscape are planned together, the end result just looks intentional. That's exactly what we were going for here.
The front beds got a clean, sweeping edge line with fresh dark mulch packed in tight. We planted a mix of columnar evergreens, boxwoods, ornamental grasses, and a young ornamental tree to give the beds some variety without making them feel cluttered. Large natural boulders were placed throughout the front to add visual weight and break up the flat plane of the mulch. It's a simple move that makes a big difference.
Along the side of the house, we carried the same black mulch and planted a row of arborvitae that will eventually screen the back fence line and HVAC equipment. We also tucked in a decorative rock border running alongside the stamped walkway - the river rock edge creates a natural transition between the hardscape and the planting beds. Little details like that are what make a landscape feel finished instead of just functional.
We also want to give a shout-out to the other tradespeople involved on this job. Good work happens when good contractors work together, and this one was a great example of that. The Lonnemans trusted us with the full vision, and we don't take that lightly.
When you're already investing in hardscape upgrades like a new driveway or walkway, it makes sense to think about the landscaping at the same time. The two work together. A fresh install like this one in Hebron is the kind of thing that completely changes how a home reads from the street - not because of any single element, but because everything ties in together.
