The Lifecycle of Your Landscape

Dig Into... One Partner

Believe it or not, your landscape has a secret. And being the good landscape whisperers we are, we’re going to share it: 

Landscapes don’t live forever.

Like all living things, a landscape has a lifecycle. Understanding how this lifecycle works––and the appropriate care to provide at each stage­­––can make it seem like your landscape is eternally at its peak. 

So, what are the key considerations?

Good landscape care takes into account:

  • Seasonal requirements
  • Your landscape’s maturity
  • Areas requiring specialized expertise, such as tree care, golf courses, and sports turf

From there, a plan can be developed that meets your landscape’s individual needs. What exactly does that look like? And when do you need certain services? Let’s dig into the details! 

When you’re building new or renovating… 

You need: Landscape Development 

Good landscape development minimizes your ongoing maintenance costs. The key is skilled professionals who are trained in the latest methodologies, have a track record for delivering quality results, and are committed to finishing projects on-time and on-budget. For example, that means taking care to source healthy plant material, carefully considering irrigation plans, and providing thoughtful project management that develops solutions before problems arise.

When you’re managing an existing property… 

You need: Landscape Maintenance 

Here, the focus is maximizing the health and longevity of your landscape through ongoing fertilization, weed and pest management, and exterior upkeep. This includes maintenance during the active growing season—like mowing and edging—and less frequent seasonal tasks, like mulch, dormant pruning, and storm preparedness and response.

Then there are the aspects of your landscape that require regular upkeep from specialists, such as irrigation technicians and certified arborists. Having a partner like BrightView, who has these experts on-staff, makes life that much easier.

These include:

When winter means snow…

You need: Snow & Ice Services

Though your landscape may be dormant, planning for the care of your landscape is not. It’s helpful to have a partner who is looking out for you year-round.  That’s why you may want to consider a landscape partner who can also handle your snow services, such as BrightView. Not only is it one less partner to vet, but your landscape team is already familiar with your property, which makes planning seamless.

When you manage a golf course or playing field…

You need: Golf Course MaintenanceSports Turf Services

Finally, it’s important to mention that golf courses and sports facilities require specialized care, which many landscape providers aren’t equipped to provide. At BrightView, we’re proud to have agronomists and veteran sports turf and golf operations consultants on-staff, helping keep your field or course at the top of its game.

Take a Holistic Approach to Landscape Services

Getting the most from your landscape involves a holistic approach. That’s why you’ll often hear us talk about the landscape lifecycle, and the importance of the having a partner who can serve your landscape throughout. At BrightView, we have experts on-staff who can handle every stage and specialty need. So instead of finding a new partner for every season of your landscape, reach out to the trusted team that already knows your property or portfolio well. Now good landscape care is seamless; and best of all, it’s no longer a secret.
