BLG Environmental Services - September 2023

OUR CLIENTS SAY IT BEST! I am so pleased with the transformation of my backyard by BLG. I had a vision of a backyard oasis. Robert and his team well exceeded that. My property backs up to a conservation, that is very swampy. I constantly struggled to get anything to grow and to look nice. Now I have a fire pit, a paved sitting area, a turf area for my dog, a raised planter for my herbs, and an amazing array of plants, shrubs, and trees. It really comes alive at night with the beautiful lighting. It’s a real Disney atmosphere! I can’t thank Robert and his team enough for transforming my backyard into a place I love. His team was very professional. They kept the property very clean during the project and completed everything in a very timely manner. It’s the best money I ever spent!” – Tomasena Bivins

larger and showier. Podocarpus plants have a moderately slow growth rate (another bonus if used as a hedge), but they can become huge if they are allowed to keep growing. Want your garden to change with the seasons? Planting fertilized female cones will produce attractive, technically edible, purple berry-like fruits that ripen in summer. Why “technically”? Since the leaves and bark are toxic, you’ll want to remove the poisonous seeds from your yew berries before giving the safe berry flesh a try. Still, these are a great choice if you prefer the visual appeal of berries in the summer months! Podocarpus plants are entirely adaptable to urban environments and work well despite poor soils or restricted rooting space. Whether in your garden, along a street, or to add privacy, we think you’ll love a Japanese yew planted wherever a tall, narrow, attractive plant is needed. Contact us today if we can help with your new podocarpus hedge!
