Lynnwood Native Plant Landscaping Services

Hey there, Lynnwood residents! Are you ready to turn your yard into a stunning, low-maintenance paradise that thrives through our wet winters and dry summers? With native plants, you can have it all—less watering, less fuss, and a beautiful outdoor space that’s perfect for our local wildlife!

What’s the Problem?

Let’s be real; many gardens face issues like:

• Plants that demand constant watering and struggle under the summer sun.
• Areas that flood during rainy seasons and dry out in the summer, stressing your plants.
• Weeds taking over because the soil is bare or your plant choices are too finicky.
• A yard that’s a wildlife “dead zone”—no nectar for bees, no berries for birds, and nothing for you to enjoy.
• You want to experience the beauty of the Pacific Northwest without spending your weekends battling yard work.

Our Native-First Design Approach (What Actually Works Here)

Here’s how we create gardens that thrive in Lynnwood:

• Right Plant, Right Place — We analyze sunlight, wind, drainage, and mature size to curate the perfect plant palette for your space.
• Structure First — An evergreen foundation (60–70%) paired with seasonal interest (30–40%) ensures your garden looks fabulous year-round.
• Clusters, Not Polka-Dots — We plant in groups of 3–7 for a bolder look and reduced maintenance needs.
• Soil, Then Mulch — We improve soil health with light compost and apply a 2–3” layer of mulch to keep moisture locked in.
• Smart Irrigation — Our drip irrigation is zoned based on plant needs, so we taper watering as roots establish, saving water and energy.
• No Landscape Fabric Here — We only use it under gravel paths, allowing plant roots to grow freely and healthily.

Palettes That Thrive in Lynnwood

For Dry Sun Areas: Choose from kinnikinnick (Arctostaphylos uva-ursi), Oregon grape (Mahonia aquifolium), and red-flowering currant (Ribes sanguineum).

For Part Shade: Consider evergreen huckleberry (Vaccinium ovatum), salal (Gaultheria shallon), and sword fern (Polystichum munitum).

For Moist or Rain-Garden Areas: Red-twig dogwood (Cornus sericea), Pacific ninebark (Physocarpus capitatus), and slough sedge (Carex obnupta) will thrive beautifully.

Seasonal Color and Pollinator-Friendly Options: Douglas aster (Symphyotrichum subspicatum), native yarrow (Achillea millefolium), and vibrant penstemon (PNW natives) will attract bees and butterflies.

Dreaming of a coastal vibe? We can weave in wax myrtle, kinnikinnick, Oregon grape, and resilient bunchgrasses for a stunning, wind-resistant look.

Invasive Removal We Handle

We’re on a mission to tackle invasive species like English ivy, Himalayan blackberry, and bindweed. Our thorough process includes clearing, root-chasing, and mulching to create a flourishing environment for your native plants.

Our Annual Maintenance Plan (Your Yard’s Routine)

Keeping your yard lush and lovely is a breeze with our comprehensive maintenance plan:

• Weed Suppression — We schedule hand-weeding and targeted pre-emergent treatments to keep those unwanted plants away.
• Mulch Management — We ensure a consistent 2–3” layer of mulch to block light and retain moisture.
• Pruning with Love — We time our pruning just right to protect blooms and berries, keeping your garden a haven for wildlife.
• Irrigation Tune-Up — From spring start-ups to fall shutdowns, we handle all your irrigation needs.
• Soil Health Checks — We top-dress with compost in spring to ensure your plants are well-fed, applying fertilizer only when a soil test indicates a need.

Our aim? To provide you with low-maintenance landscaping that minimizes issues between visits and maximizes your enjoyment!

Service Cadences (Pick What Fits)

Choose a maintenance schedule that fits your lifestyle:

• Quarterly — Includes spring and fall deep cleans plus two seasonal tune-ups.
• Bi-Monthly — A fantastic balance for most Lynnwood yards.

(If you’ve just installed new landscaping or are dealing with heavy weed pressure, we can start with monthly visits for 90 days before tapering down.)

What Annual Maintenance Includes

• Re-cutting bed edges and tidying lines for that pristine look.
• Targeted invasive control and spot-mulching to keep everything in check.
• Seasonal pruning to enhance structure and ensure wildlife-friendly blooms.
• Irrigation timer updates and quick emitter fixes to keep watering efficient.
• Plant health checks for rot, pests, and windburn, with clear next steps outlined.

Why Annual Maintenance Matters

• Survival & Growth — New natives develop deeper roots faster with our dedicated care.
• Lower Water Bills — Deep, infrequent watering saves you money compared to daily spritzing.
