A backyard in Covington earns its keep in the evening — after the heat breaks, when the light goes amber through the pines and the yard turns into somewhere to sit rather than something to fix. My Escape Landscaping LLC builds toward that hour: lawns mowed and edged, beds shaped and mulched, shrubs trimmed so a space feels held instead of hemmed in. Trimming around patios, decks and fence lines is where a yard either reads finished or doesn't. Clippings go, walkways are cleared, and the place is left quiet. The measure of the work is whether anyone wants to stay out there once it's done.
