Middletown's older blocks run tight and neighborly — narrow front lawns, hedges pressed close to the sidewalk, the bandstand at Watts Park a few streets over. Bella's Landscaping works that kind of ground, where a mower has to be turned with care and every edge is visible from the porch across the street. Mowing, trimming, mulch laid dark around the foundation beds, and the seasonal cleanups that take a yard from bare to green and back again. Small lots reward attention, because nothing hides on a lawn you can take in at a single glance. By the time the truck pulls away, the strip along the walk is crisp enough to catch the streetlight.
