About BLT Landscapes

Dickinson lies flat as a tabletop, so nothing interrupts the light — late afternoon arrives long and level and lays itself across every front yard on the block. BLT Landscapes builds for that light: beds shaped with a real edge, mulch laid even, shrubs and small plantings set where they'll read from the street. Mowing, trimming and cleanup keep the whole composition holding its line week to week. There is a particular satisfaction in the before and after, in a yard that had no shape in May and has structure by the middle of June. Grass grows fast on this coast; the trick is giving it somewhere to stop.
