There are many elements in a landscape, but the plants are perhaps what people think of most when the word “landscape” comes to mind. Plants can work quietly in the background or be the star of the show.

PERENNIALS, SHRUBS, & TREES
We’ll help select plants to fit your landscape by considering the following:
- Site Conditions | Is the spot sunny or shady? Is it generally wet, dry, or exposed to the wind?
- The Purpose of Planting | Are we trying to accent a space or cover something up? Perhaps there’s a need to create privacy or a windscreen.
- Design & Maintenance Requirements | What colors and textures do you like? Should the plants be in a tidy, formal design or something more loose and natural? Are you looking for once a year and leave it be, or would occasional pruning be ok?
About
PERENNIALS
All plants require some maintenance, but perennials are a favorite for those seeking long-lasting beauty with minimal upkeep. Known for their vibrant and showy blooms, perennials return year after year, adding reliable color and interest to your planting beds. Most only need a simple annual trim to remove dead foliage, which can be done in either the fall or spring. With thoughtful selection and placement, perennials can provide continuous seasonal appeal. Our team can help you choose the best varieties for your soil, sunlight, and desired aesthetic, ensuring a low-maintenance yet stunning addition to your landscape.
About
SHRUBS
Shrubs add structure & depth to any landscape, offering a broader range of height, width, and texture. Many varieties bloom with seasonal flowers, while others shine with striking foliage or evergreen color all year long. Shrubs are ideal for creating privacy, defining spaces, or simply adding layers of visual interest. They typically require annual to semi-annual pruning to maintain their shape and encourage healthy growth. With proper care and placement, shrubs can serve as long-term anchors in your yard. Our experts can guide you in selecting species that thrive in your environment and align with your design goals.
About
TREES
Trees are striking focal points in any landscape, adding vertical interest and a sense of continuity. Whether it’s a towering shade tree in the yard or a small accent tree in a planting bed, thoughtful placement is key. Considering the tree’s mature size and function ensures the best results—broad-leaved varieties on the south and west provide cooling shade in summer, while vibrant fall foliage enhances curb appeal. Ornamental trees can beautifully frame an entryway, creating a welcoming touch. Our team at Valley Landscaping will help select the perfect variety for your space and expertly install it for lasting beauty.
