The Woods earned its name honestly: half the lawns here grow in the shade of trees older than the houses. Green Pointe Landscaping reads that shade in August, cutting a little higher along Cook Road where the sun only reaches in patches, tighter where the yard opens up. Mowing, trimming, edging and hauling off what the cutting leaves behind — the routine is simple and the attention is not. Grass that stays green through the hot end of summer is mostly a matter of somebody showing up week to week and noticing. That is what is on offer throughout Grosse Pointe Woods and the Pointes beside it.
