Heating Things Up!
Combining Fire and Water will add a huge impact to any landscape.
Floating Cut-Out Waterbowl Night
A sinuously perforated white bowl floats above a collecting pool filled with pebbles in variegated shades of white. A veil of water sheets down from under the edge of the bowl into the wishing pool.
At night, the negative shapes of the bowl are illuminated with the glowing sheet of water coming off the edge. This water feature may include an eternal flame in the center.
Flame Grower
The garden will fade along with the season, but the elegant Lotus Bowl brings welcome life to the landscape with its everlasting rolled stainless-steel petals and gas-burner cum fiery pistil. Available in mild steel, Cor-ten steel, bronze and copper and in custom.

The Marshmallow Tree Roasting Fork has enough room to s'more up the whole family. When was the last time you had this much fun for $15.99? (Price doesn't cover chocolate and other fixins of course.)
Seasonal Advice:
Design:
Now is the time to be planning for next spring. Start thinking about landscape design and products. Start the process early to avoid the Spring rush. Designs take a few weeks to get going and a couple of more to get the game plan started. So don't allow yourselves to get lost in the shuffle. View a sample of our landscape designs
Maintenance:
Winter is a great time to start to put together landscape maintenance estimates for the upcoming season. We can give you an estimate on all your landscape needs Including: weekly mowing and weeding, tree pruning, fertilizations, pest control, annual/bulb planting arrangements, snow removal and much more. Give us a call before the spring frenzy and be first on the list.

Snow and Ice Melt:
This time of year, many building managers and home owners have to deal with the problem of icy driveways and sidewalks. To keep sidewalks safe, most people use an ice melting compound. There are dozens of ice melting products on the market today, so what's the difference?
The active ingredient used in ice melt is usually a combination of one or more of the following ingredients:
Sodium chloride (rock salt). This is the most commonly used product, yet it has limited effectiveness in extreme cold and does not melt ice below 20 degrees. Rock salt does not chemically attack concrete, but it is corrosive to rebar and steel. This product is corrosive and can damage lawns, trees and shrubs.
Calcium chloride. This liquid is converted into pellets by removing the water. It can quickly absorb moisture from the atmosphere so it can work at extremely low temperatures, down to -25 degrees. The cost is generally higher for an ice melt that contains calcium chloride. Calcium chloride can also damage nearby lawns and other vegetation.
Magnesium chloride. This is similar to calcium chloride. It is considered less corrosive, safer for use on concrete and less damaging to plants.
Potassium chloride and urea. These are chemicals commonly found in fertilizer, but that does not mean they are safe around vegetation. At high concentrates these chemicals are harmful to plants. Since urea does not contain chlorides it is less corrosive and safer to use on concrete containing rebar and around steel structures.
Hopefully this information will help you to choose the right snow melt for the right job.
