2 after Multiple levels provide a beautiful and flexible area for relaxing or entertaining family and friends. BEFORE

3 Backyard retreat The Barlows loved the view from their backyard the wooded area made for a beautiful backdrop through the changing seasons. But the yard itself was a simple, uninspiring patch of grass. The family tapped Seiler s Landscaping to transform the area into a tranquil space for entertaining and relaxation. During the planning stage, Seiler s totally redesigned the decking system, adding a large paver patio, Features columned sitting walls, included water features and a Decking system gazebo. Paver patio Sitting walls Seiler s coordinated the entire project from design Water features Sculpture garden through the one-month Landscape lighting installation. Screened and heated gazebo

4 Stairs from each side of the new decking system allow easy access to the patio and aid traffic flow during parties. A natural water feature adds soothing sounds and visual interest. Low maintenance plantings and a ceramic vase turn the space into a peaceful niche for relaxing or enjoying quality time with family and friends.

5 Because we had used Seiler s in the past for our front yard, we knew we were in excellent hands. The back yard was a lot more challenging though, with its extreme elevation changes and an unattractive retaining wall. The finished product far exceeded our expectations and we were impressed with Seiler s throughout all aspects of the project. ~ The Barlows AFTER BEFORE

6 Seiler's Landscaping summer tune-up tips for homeowners Pruning k A fool-proof method for encouraging beautiful blooms next season on flowering trees and shrubs is to prune six weeks after a bloom is finished. k No matter what the plant, cut all dead and diseased stems back to healthier wood. k Always use the right tool hand-held pruning shears for stems half inch or less and a pruning saw for larger branches. Lawn k Mind the mower get the blades sharpened in July and don t forget to keep the under-deck free of debris. k Raise the blades so higher grass will shade the roots and protect the lawn from summer scorch. k Don t try to follow your tracks exactly when cutting. Some overlap in cutting makes for a healthier lawn. Water k Your new landscape can t afford to wait for a rainy day! k Trees and shrubs (especially 3 years and under). Jim s Pick of the Season Knock Out Rose Determined to grow a heat-tolerant and diseaseresistant rose, William Radler crossbred Razzle Dazzle with Carefree Beauty and the Knock Out Rose was born. Fertilize with or rose food in early spring and the middle of June. Don t forget to remove spent roses and fallen petals to ward off disease and pests. Aren t they a knockout!
