About Blue Star Landscaping

On Church Street a gilded hand points up from a steeple, and in April the crape myrtles beneath it are only just deciding to leaf out. Blue Star Landscaping works a Port Gibson spring the way it ought to be worked — first cuts of the year, beds re-edged after the winter rains, mulch spread while the ground is still cool enough to keep it. Plantings go in early enough to take hold before Mississippi summer arrives in earnest. Then the routine settles in: mowing at a set height, trimming around the oaks and the fence posts, shrubs kept off the brick. By June the yard holds its shape on its own, which is what all that early work was for.
