About DEL Landscapes

Dig anywhere near Muddy Branch and you come up with the red Piedmont clay that Gaithersburg is built on — heavy in spring, hard as a plate in August, and the reason aeration and overseeding earn their keep here. DEL Landscapes reads that ground all year: mowing and trimming, feeding the turf, holding back the weeds, opening the soil in fall so water goes down instead of running off. When the creek runs cold and the storms turn white, the same crews move to plowing driveways, clearing walks and laying salt ahead of the ice. Different tools, one piece of land. A yard that drains right in April is usually a yard someone thought about in October.
