Lawn care and landscaping in Waxhaw, NC

Waxhaw and Weddington are where Charlotte families go for land, and the yards follow: half-acre to two-acre lots, full sun, long driveways and four-board fencing left over from when this was horse country. Two things shape the work here that do not come up in the city. A meaningful share of homes are on private wells, which puts a ceiling on irrigation, and the deer pressure is real. We plant accordingly.

Waxhaw yards, and what they need

Wells and watering

Outside the Union County water system, a lot of Waxhaw homes run irrigation off a well. That means Bermuda and Zoysia, which take drought, over fescue, which does not, and it means we choose plants that survive an August without a sprinkler.

Deer

Hostas, hydrangeas and daylilies are a buffet in Waxhaw. We design beds around plants deer leave alone, boxwood, hollies, ornamental grasses, rosemary, and we will say so before you fall in love with a plant that will be eaten by June.

Long driveways and big edges

A quarter-mile of driveway edge and a four-board fence line is a lot of trimming. It is priced as what it is: more time. Most Waxhaw yards are walk-and-quote rather than a tier price.

From Waxhaw and nearby

“Deer ate everything the last landscaper planted. Renee designed beds the deer walk right past. Two summers in, nothing's been touched.”

“Third company we've tried on our Myers Park yard and the first one that told us the truth about the shade. Half of it is now a fern bed and the other half is the best grass we've had.”

Waxhaw questions

Is Waxhaw a long trip for you?

It is a normal part of the south route with Weddington and Marvin. We are down there three days a week in season.

Can you help with a deer problem?

We cannot make deer leave, but we can plant a yard they walk past. Ask for the deer-resistant plant list on the walk-through.
