The perfect yard starts with the perfect plan. Let’s think about this for a second. No one wants to have an ugly or inadequate landscape. It makes your home, your most valued possession, look bad; it certainly won’t help you with home value and forget about curb appeal! So, let’s go back to that first statement again – the perfect yard starts with the perfect plan!

We all know about the benefits of landscaping around our homes but what about our pools? It is just as beneficial - especially for those of us in Las Vegas. Not only does it create a personal retreat for you, it can provide shade which cools down the water. Making for an even more refreshing swim!

No need to gamble with your landscape during the month of August. Thanks to the experts at Moon Valley Nurseries, a healthy summertime landscape doesn’t have to be a crapshoot. With average daytime temperatures in Las Vegas hovering in the triple-digit range, it’s no wonder why some of the trees and plants in our landscape are stressing out. Have no fear! We are the grower, so we know how to take care of a landscape, no matter how hot it gets outside.

You don’t need us to tell you that it’s hot in Las Vegas! All this heat can be stressful on the trees and plants in our landscape. The fact that the days are longer and the sun is stronger adds to the stress. And, while it can feel like a blow-dryer is always on during the day, we can find some relief in shade trees. Fertilizer can help your shade trees stay healthy during the heat of the summer.

It’s summertime in Las Vegas, time to cool off by the pool! Yes, it’s sweltering outside, but we can still enjoy our yard. Evergreen trees keep their foliage all year long, perfect for providing shade and creating privacy so that you can enjoy your yard no matter how hot it gets outside.
