About Rick's Lawn & Landscaping

Late-August afternoons in Paradise belong to the monsoon: thunderheads stacking over the Spring Mountains by two o'clock, a wall of shade crossing Maryland Parkway, then twenty minutes of rain the washes carry off faster than it fell. Rick's Lawn & Landscaping works around that weather — mowing and edging in the morning calm, running the string trimmer down the walls and walkways, then coming back for the cleanup, when palm fronds and mesquite litter have landed wherever the gust wanted them. Fertilizing and weed control run on their own calendar, because turf that drinks that hard needs feeding to match. What sticks with people is the after-picture: the yard put right inside a day of the storm, the borders sharp again, nothing left along the gutter line. The desert makes its point loudly every August around here, and a clean, level lawn is a fine way to answer it.
