Planting Services
What Are Planting Services in Landscaping?
Planting services involve the selection, sourcing, and professional installation of trees, shrubs, flowers, and other plant materials to enhance outdoor spaces. In Edmonton, where growing conditions are limited by a short season and extreme temperature shifts, proper plant choice and installation methods are essential. This service ensures that all plantings are suited for Zone 3b, installed with proper soil preparation, and positioned for long-term growth and health.
Key features of planting services include:
- Selection of climate-hardy trees, shrubs, and perennials
- Soil assessment and preparation for better root development
- Strategic placement based on sun exposure and wind protection
- Installation with mulch, edging, and soil amendments
- Seasonal planning for spring, summer, and fall plantings
Planting services form the living layer of a landscape, helping to add texture, colour, and shade while supporting local ecosystems.

Installing trees and plants that survive local winters and summer droughts
