Hardy Pond turns slate about twenty minutes before the streetlights find their nerve, and the yards along its rim cool fast. Bluescape landscaping LLC times the week around that light — mowing, string-trimming and edging in the heat of the day, mulch worked in come spring, leaves cleared once the shoreline maples finish. Lawn care here is repetition done attentively: same lines, same cadence, a little better each visit. There is real satisfaction in stepping back at the end of a cut and finding nothing left to fix. Waltham first, then Watertown, Belmont and Newton.
