How Our Process Works

Successful coastal landscaping requires plant selection and soil amendments that account for salt spray, wind exposure, and seasonal temperature swings.

What grass types work best in coastal Maine?
We typically install tall fescue and fine fescue blends that tolerate salt exposure and cold temperatures. These varieties establish deep root systems and require less frequent watering than traditional lawn grasses.

How often should mulch be refreshed?
Quality hardwood mulch should be refreshed annually each spring to maintain 2-3 inch depth. This protects plant roots from temperature extremes and reduces weed growth throughout the growing season.

What stonework options suit coastal properties?
We use granite and fieldstone native to Maine for retaining walls, walkways, and garden borders. These materials resist freeze-thaw cycles and complement Castine's natural landscape character.

Which plants handle salt air exposure well?
Rugosa roses, bayberry, and native junipers thrive in coastal conditions with minimal care. We also use ornamental grasses and sedums that add year-round interest while requiring little maintenance.
