Araceli’s landscaping

About Araceli’s landscaping

In the old neighborhoods east of the university, the yards sit under trees planted long before anyone worried much about water, and by December the citrus hangs heavy and bright over the sidewalks. Araceli's landscaping keeps those Tucson yards in order — mowing, edging, trimming shrubs and low branches, clearing leaves and fallen fruit off the walks. These lots reward attention; a hedge squared up and a lawn cut to an even height changes the whole face of a bungalow. Winter here is generous, mild enough to work in all day, and the yards show it. The satisfaction is in the small exact things nobody notices until they are missing.
