Sustainable Landscaping Company

While many companies talk about “Going Green,” FloraTerra performs water conservation, sustainable landscape improvements, recycling, and ecological waste reduction every day! Read our Environmental Responsibility Policy.
Landscape Improvements

FloraTerra’s commercial landscape installation service focuses on creating sustainable landscapes that are cost-effective and resource-efficient. By choosing compatible plant alternatives that consume less water, older lawn or ground cover areas are converted to beautiful seasonally-flowering shrubs, trees, and ornamental grasses that are drought tolerant and resistant to insects and disease.

Smart Irrigation Controllers Save and Conserve

Ordinary irrigation systems cannot adjust to daily changing weather patterns. They generally over water your landscape, leaving you with expensive water bills and major property damage. Smart Irrigation Controllers save you water, money, and time by activating at specified intervals according to your landscape’s needs. Enjoy healthier landscapes while protecting the environment and reducing expensive water maintenance costs.

Mulch, Conserves Water

Mulch is often referred to as the “secret weapon” of water conservation in any region. By mulching, we maintain optimum moisture, suppress weeds, help protect a plants root system during incremental hot or cold weather, and provides exceptional curb appeal.

Green Waste Recycling

FloraTerra operates modern recycling mowers. Dry grass clippings that are finely mulched and spread evenly on a lawn’s surface return a significant amount of nutrients and moisture back to the soil. This reduces the amount of fertilizers and potential chemicals in run-off water. Properly mulched clippings dissipate quickly. This practice results in ecological waste reduction and helps conserve landfill space. When done correctly, the recycling of grass clippings does not result in a negative appearance of freshly mowed lawns.

Where feasible, appropriate tree and shrub trimmings are “chipped” and spread on specific surfaces as mulch. Recycled trimmings hold moisture, conserve water, and provide nutrients for soil tree’s and plants.
