About DakotaGreens Landscaping and design

North of town the new streets climb toward Black Hawk and Summerset, and the ground up there is gumbo clay that swells wet and cracks dry — a yard has to be planned for it, not simply planted on it. DakotaGreens Landscaping and design starts with the drawing: grading and beds, plant groupings, sod or seed, then the mowing, trimming, edging and cleanups that keep the plan honest. The palette that thrives out here is prairie-minded — grasses that take wind, shrubs that take sun off open ground, shade placed where the afternoon actually lands. Designing in the Dakotas means asking what the wind and the clay will allow, then making that look intentional. A few seasons on, those yards stop looking new and start looking right.
