On the western side of Greenburgh the ground tilts toward the Hudson, and on a June morning the sun comes up behind you and lands first on the cliffs across the water. Velez Landscaping mows through that hour, when dew still beads along the blades and the cut smells like the whole month at once. Yards on this slope are terraced, tucked between stone walls and old shade, so the work stays patient — mowing the level runs, trimming what a mower can never reach, edging the beds until every line looks decided. Mulch goes down once the soil warms, and thorough cleanups bracket the growing season at either end. The pleasure is a plain one: walking back down the driveway and seeing the stripes hold straight across grass that was shaggy an hour ago.
