Calluna Landscapes

About Calluna Landscapes

Spring in the hills above Berkeley starts in the creases — Wildcat Canyon greens first, then the ridge, then everything below it, and by March the grass in the yards is growing faster than anyone can keep pace with. Calluna Landscapes runs hard through that stretch, mowing on a tighter cycle, re-cutting paths the season has quietly erased, and clearing beds of the winter's leftover litter. Morning air off Tilden carries eucalyptus and wet soil, and the mowers head out into it early. A lawn cut evenly in that light, with the borders trimmed back to a line, holds its shape for the whole week. That is the real measure of the work: not how a yard looks at noon, but how it looks the following Friday.
