More Than Just Design

A healthy garden starts with healthy soil. Our experience has shown that completing soil preparation prior to planting is essential to long term success. Whether your soil is sand or claybased, adding organic matter will improve its texture and water movement patterns while adding nutrients. Soil amendment also improves aeration allowing roots of young plants to grow out more quickly into the surrounding soil. From soil amendment and planting to mulching and watering, professional installation is a key step towards a healthy landscape. A careful and watchful eye can make all the difference in the long-term health of your landscape. Finke Gardens has over 25 years experience to ensure a professional and complete landscape installation. A beautiful landscape is not only well-designed and properly installed, it also requires follow-up care. Landscape management is perhaps one of the most critical steps in producing a beautiful landscape, for without good management a great design can not result in a great landscape. As a living system, a landscape changes over time. Adaptation to those changes is needed for your landscape to remain functional and beautiful. Finke Gardens offers comprehensive landscape management services to keep your landscape in its prime.
