For a couple of weeks each spring Augusta goes yellow — pine pollen on every windshield, every railing, every blade of grass a few blocks off Broad Street. scapegoat landscaping LLC starts its season right in the middle of that, cutting the first tall growth back to something orderly and giving the beds a fresh edge before the crepe myrtles bloom. The work runs from mowing and trimming to mulch, shrub shaping and hauling off what winter left behind. Downtown yards are small and stubborn, hemmed in by brick walls and shade, and getting them right is a matter of inches — a straight line where the turf meets the walk, a bed curve that follows the house. Later in the year the same properties get leaves cleared and hedges squared, and the whole block reads a little brighter for it.
