By September the crepe myrtles along Covington's long driveways have dropped most of their color onto the gravel, and the yards underneath want attention again after a hard summer. Olivewood Landscaping takes those properties in full — mowing and edging the open ground, trimming close around trunks and posts, shaping shrubs, refreshing beds with mulch. Trees change what a lawn needs, so working under them means adjusting height, direction and timing rather than fighting the shade. Sweeping the drive clear at the end is the punctuation. A well-kept yard in early fall is one of the better things this town has to look at.
