Come June the cottonwoods let go all at once and Thornton fills with white drift that catches in the hedges and along the curb line. Adan landscaping 11 inc works right through it — mowing on schedule, cleaning up the shaggy corners, turning the mulch beds so the color comes back dark and even. The soil here is heavy prairie clay that holds water long after a storm, so bed work is done with an eye on where the runoff wants to go. Front yards on these blocks sit close together, which means the edges matter; a clean line at the walk changes the whole face of a house. When the trailer gate closes, what's left behind is a lot that looks looked-after.
