Crape myrtles line half the streets in Grovetown, blooming stubbornly through the worst of the summer and then dropping their leaves all at once when October finally cools. Hilliard Lawn & Landscape works to that calendar — shaping shrubs and small trees, refreshing beds, mowing and edging through the long growing season, and clearing the drifts of leaves and straw when the year turns. Landscaping here is mostly an exercise in restraint: clean bed lines, mulch at an even depth, plants given room to be what they are. The reward is a front yard that looks composed from the curb without shouting about it. Even in the flat gray light of January, good bones still show.
