About Robert Leeper Landscapes

Austin has long been called the City of the Violet Crown, after the purple light that rings its western hills at the end of the day. Up near Mount Bonnell, where the land drops away toward the green bend of Lake Austin, that glow falls across yards set among pale limestone and dark cedar. Robert Leeper Landscapes brings mowing and trimming to this kind of ground, where a lawn is as likely to tilt as lie flat and every strip of grass has its own angle to the sun. A freshly cut yard on the west side holds the last color of the sky the way a still pond does. It is an unhurried, attentive kind of lawn care for a part of the city that seems made to be looked at.
