Is your commercial property landscaping fresh and modern, with innovative gathering spots and graceful ornamental grasses?
Or is it still sporting sad over-pruned junipers way past their prime?
Maybe you haven’t really noticed. But your customers and tenants do.
Good commercial landscape design doesn't stay the same — it changes, with trends, technology and evolving customer tastes.

Imagine you’re pulling up in front of the hotel where you’re about to stay for a few days. It could be any high-end hotel, but let’s just say for fun that it’s yours.
You park the car, unload your suitcase, and grab your party size bag of cheese puffs (no judging here— you’re on vacation!)
Look around. What do you notice? Could your landscaping’s important first impression use a boost?
It’s not always easy for HOA board members to agree, but can we all agree HOA landscaping budget management can be challenging?
If you’ve been showing up to work wearing hip waders, maybe you already realize you have a drainage problem on your commercial property.
Got your mittens ready? Your parka? Your boots?
When winter blasts in with extreme cold, you’re covered.
But what about your plants?
Here’s a look at how to protect trees, shrubs, and plants from winter damage.
This guy is bad news.
Sure, the spotted lanternfly looks pretty enough, with its attractive speckled vibrant wings.
But this destructive invasive insect devours and destroys plants, from orchards and vineyards full of fruit to valuable hardwood trees.
You’re probably being wisely proactive a lot without even realizing it.
Like when you put your name on your chicken pesto panini in the break room fridge so nobody else eats it. (Hopefully. Every office has that one guy.)
You don’t want to open the fridge, stomach growling, and find it gone. Unpleasant surprise.
It pays to be proactive with your commercial landscaping services, too. Otherwise, you’re in for unpleasant surprises. Like when your commercial property’s lawn dies, and you have to dip into your already stretched budget to pay to replace it.
The landscape of classic cartoons is definitely not safe.
Somebody’s always either falling into a deep hole, getting run over by a truck, or having an anvil drop on their head.
Who’s in charge of safety over there? Somewhere, a property manager is in big trouble.
Make sure it’s not you. When you hire a commercial landscaping company, ask how they’ll keep your property — and the people on it — safe.
Imagine all the cool services you could have out on your commercial property:
- A hot dog cart
- Beard trimming
- An ice cream truck
- Free oil changes
- A golf swing coach
That all sounds great, but it won’t do much for your landscaping. In fact, think of all the grass-trampling extra foot traffic. Yikes.
Remember when you decided being on your HOA landscaping committee sounded like fun?
Flowers! Green spaces! Pondering cool amenities like walking trails and dog parks!
But when you’re an HOA board member, let’s face it — landscaping can be kind of stressful.
You want your community to look great, feel welcoming, and attract new buyers. You want to protect your property value. You know landscaping plays a huge part.
