Spring Specials June 2009
Greetings! 
Welcome to another fantastic Spring! As the weather warms up, we are all spending more time outdoors. And we would like our property to be in tip-top shape. Steve's Landscaping is ready to help with all your landscaping, maintenance, irrigation and outdoor living needs.  
 
This season, Steve's Landscaping offers an exciting array of  the highest quality products and services. Combining the latest technology with 30 years experience in the landscaping industry, Steve's Landscaping provides the best of both quality and pricing.   
 
I'm really excited about the new Intelli-Sense Controller for irrigation systems.  It saves money right away by linking directly to NOAA weather satelites so that you don't waste water.  Also, the controller is programmed to take into account the shade and slope conditions of your lawn, so that water is only applied as needed.  This controller can save 30% - 50% on your water bill right away!  The new Toro controller is just one of the many new products we are offering this season.
 
We can't wait to get to work on your yard to make sure it looks its very best! Call today to start the season right!

Boxwood Leafminer AlertBoxwood Leafminer Damage
 
We've seen a lot of Leafminer damage to boxwoods already this season.  The larve are feeding now and cause blistering and discoloration.  The damage is unsightly and can eventually result in the loss of the plant. Unfortunately, there are no natural enemies of the Leafminer, so the only means of control is spraying the plant with the correct insecticide three times, at 30-day intervals.  Check out your boxwoods and call today for an evaluation if you notice any raised or yellow spots.
There is a garden where our hearts converse,
At ease beside clear water, dreaming
A whole and perfect future for yourself,
Myself, our children and our friends.

The more we hear about this disease, the more determined we are to help you avoid exposure. We offer an effective and inexpensive spray that successfully controls the ticks in your yard. 
 
Janeen and I both have our yards sprayed every 30-45 days and it works! We feel comfortable that our kids and our pets can enjoy our property without worrying about ticks. Both of us found ticks on our dogs earier this season, and I found one on my baby's head after one of my older sons brought it in on his clothes. Yech! After our yards were sprayed, we have not seen any more ticks. 
 
Call today to protect you family from these disgusting insects and the potentially serious Lyme disease!
