Smile I need someone to trim and maintain existing landscaping

Help! Our Landscaping has become a jungle!! We are fairly new to the Villages, We have found lawn cutters easily, but the ones we spoke to do not trim, weed or mulch. Does anyone know of a company or an individual to help with the upkeep of our foliage?

it appears that a lot (including our) yard people cut back to only 2 x per month cutting of yard and have extra time for those things they just can not cover during high growth seasons because of loss of revenue time it takes. Find your sweet spot, get it done now, and order some trimmers from Amazon to help you during those "off times". Hope this helps, and welcome to the community!

That's so disappointing when people don't follow through. I hope he's okay and if so...

Default Pleased with Colonial

Colonial Landscape has done an excellent job for us. Mowing, trimming, mulching—even handled a wasp nest we did not know was there.

Is that $60/$100 per week?

I tried Fernview farms but had to let them go. I placed a sign in front of a fragile plant stating not to spray in this area (told them up front about this and they told me "they love signs") Happened to be walking by window and saw the guy ignore the sign and spray right by the plant. Now of course it is dead. When I asked him why, first he said he didn't see it and then changed his story that he didn't know what it meant . He cursed at us and left. Owner of company blamed us for being too vague. I cannot recommend this company if they cannot follow simple, explicit instructions and then shift the blame to he customer when there is a problem

We have Choice maintenance pretty happy with them. We do have a couple large weeds that they haven't pulled. Wife left them on purpose but they just sprayed around them. We pay extra for weeds and trim. For what we pay we spend too much time pulling the weeds. So not so sure they actually pull them.
