Burien Annual Flower Planting
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien yards face a mix of rainy winters and bright, short summers, compacted glacial soils, and pockets of slope that challenge annual flower success. Many homes near Seahurst Park and the Highline area have heavy shade, clay-rich spots that stay wet, and small slopes that direct runoff into beds. Landlords and homeowners often want low-maintenance color without weekly upkeep, safer planting that resists erosion, and solutions that respect neighborhood ecology. Choosing the wrong plants or skipping soil prep leads to poor bloom, moss, and recurring weeds. Sustainable, hands-on practices — compost, mulches, and drift-aware plant placement — give long-term results that cut repeat work and keep beds healthy through our wet season and summer sun.
Our Quality Service
We assess light, slope, and drainage and prepare beds to suit Burien’s conditions. Planting uses organic amendments, compost, and water-wise groupings to reduce irrigation and prevent erosion. Benefits include improved safety on slopes, stronger curb appeal, lower maintenance needs, and durable plantings built to handle local rain patterns.
What’s Included
- Site assessment: sun, shade, soil, slope.
- Soil amendment with compost and organic starter.
- Plant selection and careful planting.
- Mulch application and initial watering.
- Edging, light pruning, and clean-up.
Optional upgrades: - Mulch + landscape fabric.

Before & After / Expectations
Expect fuller beds in 2–6 weeks as roots establish. Water deeply at planting, then taper; watch for moss in persistently damp spots and hand-remove ivy to prevent regrowth. Annual refreshes keep color without heavy upkeep.
FAQs
- How long does a job take? Small beds: a few hours; larger installs: 1–2 days depending on prep.
- Do you use chemicals? No — we use only sustainable, non-chemical methods.
- What access do you need? Clear bed access and a nearby tap for water; we handle the rest.
