Low Maintenance Landscape

Low Maintenance Landscape Low Maintenance Landscape started business in
2001 as a small local landscape design-build
company.

Our landscape design-build firm takes pride in offering highly attentive design plans, long lasting natural landscape installations, as well as expert garden maintenance to the Lawrence, KS area. Our goal was to offer the absolute best
quality work, customer service and competitive pricing
available. We specialize in offering a different kind of
landscape; one that will stand the test of time by
u

sing well adapted and native plant material. Many
years later we have grown into well known, top notch,
full service, regional landscape company. We have
never forgotten our roots and have a commitment to
strive for the best ratings in the industry. The
greatest change from our beginning days is the influx
of business. We have adapted to this greater
demand by hiring the best team of qualified,
knowledgeable, and friendly employees. We have
been featured on the Channel 6 evening news, a
local garden show, "Home and Away" show, and have
been in several newspaper articles. Ryan has also
published a wonderful reference book at Oklahoma
State University; UNDER-UTILIZED NATIVE PLANTS
OF OKLAHOMA

We grow thousands of locally grown perennials, shrubs, trees, bamboos, hardy tropicals, grasses,
edible plants, xeriscape plants, native plants, dry-shade plants and unusual/rare plants. We grow
many “hard to find” plants you won’t find at the garden centers or box stores. We do not really
have an availability list but most items on our list are available most of the time; you may call to
check on the availability of a particular plant. Most of our plants are organically grown and
pesticides are not needed or used at all. Our plants are grown in a natural topsoil mix to promote
faster establishment when planted in your landscape.

USING LIRIOPE GROUNDCOVER UNDER
TREES INSTEAD OF LAWN
A groundcover area is simply a mass planting of a single plant serving the same purpose of a lawn-to fill large areas of landscape space with one type of plant. A "groundcover" is considered an area in which you do not mow whereas a "lawn" area is regularly mowed. Mowing and maintaining that water-thirsty lawn under your large shade trees is expensive and time-consuming! In the long run, you are fighting a losing battle in which the tree roots will outcompete lawn for water and nutrients. We are in business to help your landscape look beautiful with the least amount of maintenance possible. Groundcover lawn alternatives offer many advantages where grass won't grow. Liriope (LIRIOPE SPICATA) is the most grass-like plant for this purpose. It can be regularly "mowed" in the same way you would a lawn grass.

LIRIOPE WILL GROW IN THESE CHALLENGING AREAS

1. Under rootbound large shade trees such as Oak, Maple, and Birch where grass won't grow. Competes well even with shallow-rooted trees.
2. In shallow rocky soils, hard-packed clay soils, sandy soils, any soil except wet.
3. Northside of a house in full year-round shade.
4. In-between crevices of large retaining walls.
5. On 30-60 degree angle slopes too steep to mow. Cover the slope with Liriope instead of an expensive retaining wall.
6. In narrow difficult to water strips between sidewalk and street.
7. Parking lot islands preferably in conjunction with a shade tree.
8. In places where you want up to 99% w**d suppression.
9. In areas that you want to create near zero maintenance.
​10. In medium to heavy foot traffic areas including dog traffic.
