Garden Maintenance in Seattle
Maintaining a garden in Seattle can be a unique challenge due to the city’s distinct climate and diverse plant life. With its mild, wet winters and dry summers, Seattle gardens require regular attention to thrive. Homeowners and small property managers often find themselves needing guidance on how to keep their outdoor spaces looking their best while minimizing effort and costs. The good news? With the right approach, garden maintenance can be straightforward and rewarding.
Our Approach
At Neat & Tidy, we focus on low-maintenance landscaping that reduces the number of issues you encounter between our visits. Our goal is to make gardening a hassle-free experience for you. Here’s how we do it:
Soil Health: We emphasize the importance of healthy soil, which is the foundation for a thriving garden. Regular soil testing and amendments can improve plant health and reduce pest problems.
Plant Selection: Choosing the right plants for your environment is critical. We recommend native plants that are adapted to Seattle’s climate, requiring less water and care.
Water Management: Proper irrigation systems can help ensure your plants receive the necessary moisture without over-watering, which is vital in Seattle’s variable weather.
Routine Maintenance: We establish a regular maintenance schedule that includes pruning, weeding, and seasonal clean-ups, ensuring your garden stays vibrant year-round.
We’re a low-maintenance landscaping crew. Our goal is fewer problems between visits and less work for you.
Service Cadences
Selecting the right service cadence for your garden maintenance needs ensures that your plants receive the right level of care throughout the year. Here are our options:
Quarterly: Ideal for those who prefer a spring/fall deep clean, plus two tune-ups in between. This option works well for gardens with a mix of perennials and annuals.
Bi-Monthly: This balanced care is perfect for most yards, providing consistent attention without overwhelming your schedule. It allows for regular weeding, pruning, and monitoring of plant health.
Monthly: If you have a high-visibility property or rental, this option is tailored for you. It ensures that your garden remains in pristine condition, enhancing curb appeal and tenant satisfaction.

Our maintenance packages are designed to cover all essential aspects of garden care. Here’s what you can expect from our services:
Weeding: Regular removal of invasive plants to promote healthy growth of your desired plants.
Pruning: Seasonal pruning to encourage growth and maintain shape, reducing the risk of disease.
Edging: Clean edges around flower beds and pathways to enhance visual appeal and prevent grass encroachment.
