Our landscaping services in San Diego, CA

Weekly or bi-weekly mowing, edging, and blowing off of hard surfaces. Keep your lawn perfectly maintained.

Why professional mowing?

Consistent height keeps grass healthy and thick. We mulch clippings for natural fertilizer, edge for clean lines, and blow off hard surfaces. Your lawn stays green and neat without weekend work and at a consistent professional level.

BOOK SERVICE

Shape shrubs and hedges for healthy, attractive growth. Can purchase with mowing or standalone. Choose your frequency.

When should I trim?

Most shrubs need trimming 3-4 times yearly. Spring shapes new growth, summer maintains, fall preps for winter. We know each species' needs and trim for health, not just looks.

BOOK SERVICE

Remove weeds and debris from beds by hand. Keep gardens neat and clean. Can purchase with mowing or standalone

How often do I need this?

Monthly in growing season, quarterly in winter. Regular weeding prevents seeds from spreading and protects your plants' water and nutrients. Mulch after weeding lasts longer.

Greener, thicker grass with less weeds. Fertilizer and weed control applied year-round. Can purchase with mowing or standalone.

What treatments do I need?

Pre-emergent stops weeds before they start. Fertilizer feeds grass in spring/fall. Post-emergent kills existing weeds. Pest control as needed. We customize based on your grass type. One service won't do it alone but our package leads to a lush weed-free lawn.

BOOK SERVICE

Fall cleanup, spring cleanup, or year-round. Keep your yard pristine. Can purchase with mowing or standalone.

When to schedule leaf cleanup?

Fall: bi-weekly during drop season. Spring: once for winter debris. Year-round for pristine look. Leaves block sunlight and trap moisture that causes disease leading to bare spots. Stay ahead of buildup.

BOOK SERVICE

Fresh mulch for healthier plants and cleaner beds. Color options available. Sign up for mowing and add mulch as an add on.

How much mulch do I need?

On your first visit your pro will take your measurements. 2-3 inches deep for best results. One cubic yard covers 100 sq ft. Mulch twice yearly: spring for moisture retention, fall for winter protection. Choose from 5 colors.

"We couldn’t be happier with the work Angel from Terra Verde Landscaping did on our hedges. From the moment he arrived, it was clear he took pride in his craft. He was punctual, polite, and approached the job with care and attention to detail. The hedges now look beautifully sculpted and symmetrical—exactly what we were hoping for. He took the time to shape them cleanly without being overly aggressive, giving our entire landscape a refreshed, tidy appearance. Angel also made sure everything was cleaned up afterward, leaving no mess behind. It’s rare to find someone so dedicated to quality work. We highly recommend Angel and the Terra Verde Landscaping team for anyone looking to enhance their outdoor space. We’ll definitely be calling them again!"

"Nicholas did a great job on my yard. My yard is full of foxtails and other weeds and he did his best to knock them down and remove them. I know it's impossible to get every single one but he did a great job! He also made suggestions for possibly resetting the yard or getting artificial turf and decomposed granite. I appreciated the suggestions and looking forward to the quote."

San Diego Landscaping Trends and Projects by Season

America’s Finest City deserves the finest landscaping. That’s where we come in. LawnStarter’s San Diego landscaping pros can maintain your yard or transform it into your own personal paradise. 

San Diego Landscaping Trends

  • Water-wise landscaping: Drought-tolerant plants and hardscaping mean less watering. 
  • Native plant gardens: Sage, succulents, and poppies are all excellent choices. 
  • Terraced yards: Retaining walls, garden beds, and steps make the most of sloped or small yards. 
  • Outdoor living spaces: Patios, fire pits, pizza ovens, and pathways make entertaining outside easy. 

San Diego Landscaping by Season

Yard work in SoCal is a year-round job. Check out this seasonal guide to help you get the most out of your San Diego landscape.

Summer

  • Lawn care: Continue to mow weekly. Fertilize warm-season grasses once between June and August. Monitor for pests and diseases.
  • Planting: Summer is the best time to plant phlox, blackeyed Susans, lantana, and zinnias.
  • Irrigation: Water your lawn 2-3 times a week.

Fall

  • Lawn care: Continue to mow once weekly until temperatures consistently fall below 55 degrees. Fertilize cool-season grasses in October. Overseed and consider using a pre-emergent herbicide.  
  • Leaf cleanup: Use a rake, mulcher, leaf blower, or leaf removal service.
  • Planting: Plant bulbs now to bloom next year. Plant asters, lilies, and salvia. Plant trees now until early winter. 
  • Mulch: Replenish your mulch.
  • Irrigation: Water 1-2 times a week. Fall is the best time to install a sprinkler system because the ground temps are perfect. 
  • Hardscaping: Add concrete patios, decks, and fire pits during the fall when the dry weather allows everything to cure, dry, and set.

Winter

  • Lawn care: Mow and aerate as needed, as well as weed flowerbeds. Let your cool-season grasses grow long.
  • Irrigation: Water your lawn as needed. San Diego’s clay soil holds moisture. 
  • Planting: Plant camellias, hollies, jasmines, waxflowers, pansies, and snapdragons. 
  • Pruning: Prune your shrubs and trees when the plants are dormant.

Spring

  • Lawn care: When your lawn starts to green up, begin mowing every five days to a week. In late spring, aerate and overseed your lawn. Begin fertilizing warm-season grasses. 
  • Planting: Plant poppies, yarrow, lantana, salvias, and other perennials. Weed your flower beds throughout the season.
  • Irrigation: Water your lawn once or twice a week between 6 and 10 a.m. 
  • Landscape lighting: Install outdoor lighting to show off your home and lawn.
