The Art and Science of Outdoor Living

The broad use of the word landscaping encompasses many different things. While many associate the term with the simple act of planting flowers and creating a healthy, green lawn, it actually means so much more. Landscaping is the art and sciene of enhancing mother nature's natural beauty. It’s the art of adding aesthetically pleasing features to your yard, removing those that are not wanted and turning something sub-standard into something remarkable and worthy of a second look.

When it comes to landscaping, the options abound. Some people want a perfectly balanced combination of hardscape (patios) and softscape (plants). Some people want a sustainable landscape design that saves water and creates a natural habitat. While other people want to recreate a certain garden style they find appealing, such as modern or tropical. Still others want a space complete with an outdoor kitchen, fire pit and swimming pool where they can entertain friends and family. Whatever you desire, the experts at Magnolia Landscapes Outdoor Living can work with you to achieve your goal..

Magnolia Landscapes designs and builds exceptional outdoor spaces with the ultimate goal of creating beauty and enhancing the value of your home. From lush green front lawns to dazzling flower gardens to intimate sitting areas in the back yard, we create landscapes that let our clients experience pleasure and pride as well as the peacefulness of mother nature.

The key to a successful landscape is careful planning. Before we start any project, one of our owners will meet with you personally, review your wish list, make his recommendations and work with you to make your desired landscape a reality. We carefully consider every aspect of the project, especially drainage, irrigation and infrastructure. Although not immediately visible, these are crucial to the long-term success of your landscape.

Magnolia Landscapes sells and installs quality plant material from trusted nursery partners. Trees and shrubs vary considerably in their ability to tolerate different site conditions, and in addition to their ornamental value, it is critical to select plants that complement the growing conditions of the site. We take this consideration very seriously in our plant selection and surrounding elements. We use your ideas and our expertise with plans and trees to enhance curb appeal, create depth and incorporate walkways, patios, pool decks, driveways and other hardscape elements into your overall design.

What is Landscaping?

By definition, "landscaping" (verb form) a property means making improvements (or maintaining past improvements) -- either in a practical or aesthetic way. In an extended sense, everything on your property that stands outside of the home itself is part of a property's landscaping (noun). A related word is "landscape." When you landscape your yard, you are engaging in landscaping.

People have practiced landscaping for centuries. As far back as the ancient Mayans, humans were manipulating the land for both aesthetic and practical reasons. The addition of plants, changes to the existing terrain and the construction of structures are all part of landscaping. Today landscaping refers to the planning, laying out and construction of outdoor features that enhance the appearance and create useable space for outdoor activities around a home.

Whether it is sitting on your natural stone patio in Westlake watching the children play as the sun sets slowly in the west, or watching the boats and skiers from your beautifully landscaped back yard at Clarks Hill, a well landscaped outdoor living area can make the perfect place to end your day.

Your yard should be the type of place in which you want to spend time; a place you want to enjoy and relax. Your yard should be beautiful, elegant and comfortable. Your yard should have the right landscaping.

Landscaping combines science and art. Armed with horticultural knowledge, as well as familiarity with the elements and principles of landscape design, a landscape professional can help you transform your property. We will create a plan for your yard that suits your needs and provides solutions to common landscaping problems, such as slopes, wind, sun or lack of space. The team at Magnolia Landscapes Outdoor Living will guide you through the landscaping process, from design to construction to completion.
