New Plantings That Anchor Your Yard

Landscape installation services for homes and commercial properties in the Greensboro, North Carolina area.

Your yard in Greensboro, Jamestown, Browns Summit and surrounding areas might have good bones but lack the plantings, beds, or structure that make it feel complete. New construction often leaves you with bare dirt and builder-grade sod, while older homes sometimes have overgrown or outdated landscapes that need a reset. Gli Landscaping handles landscape installations that add new plants, beds, and features designed to fit your property's layout, drainage, and how you actually use the space.


We install trees, shrubs, perennials, groundcovers, and bedding plants chosen for Greensboro's soil conditions and seasonal climate. Installation includes bed preparation, soil amendments, proper planting depth, and mulching to protect roots and retain moisture. Each plant is placed with mature size, sun exposure, and surrounding features in mind so your landscape looks intentional now and grows into its space without crowding or failing.


If you're ready to add new plantings or redesign sections of your yard in Greensboro, contact Gli Landscaping to request an installation quote.

How Installation Changes What You See Every Day

Our crews show up in Greensboro and surrounding areas with shovels, soil amendments, mulch, and plants selected for your site's specific conditions. We dig planting holes wider than root balls to allow roots to spread, backfill with improved soil if your native clay is too dense, and water everything thoroughly before mulching. Bed edges are defined with a sharp spade or mechanical edger so turf doesn't creep into planted areas.


After installation, you'll see structured beds with plants spaced to grow into their mature form without overlapping, fresh mulch that gives everything a finished look, and clear separation between turf and planted areas. Your yard will feel more intentional, and new plantings will establish roots quickly because they've been placed correctly from the start.


We use proven installation practices that support plant longevity, which means choosing species suited to your sun and moisture conditions, avoiding planting too deep or too shallow, and ensuring drainage won't leave roots sitting in standing water. If your project includes hardscaping like walkways or retaining walls, we coordinate installation so everything ties together visually and functionally.

Homeowners in Greensboro often ask about plant selection, timing, and how long it takes for new installations to look established. Here are the questions that come up most when planning landscape installation projects.

What You Should Know Before Adding New Plants

How do you choose which plants to install?
We look at your property's sun exposure, soil drainage, and existing landscape style, then recommend plants that thrive in Greensboro's climate and fit the mature size of your beds. If you have preferences for color, texture, or seasonal interest, we work those into the plan.
When is the best time to install new plants in Greensboro?
Spring and fall are ideal because cooler temperatures and regular rainfall help plants establish roots before summer heat or winter cold sets in. We can install year-round, but summer plantings require extra watering and winter installations need mulch protection.
How long will it take for new plantings to look full?
Most shrubs and perennials fill out within one to two growing seasons if they're watered properly and planted in the right conditions. Trees take longer to reach mature size, but you'll see noticeable growth each year as roots establish.
What if my yard has drainage problems?
We assess drainage before planting and adjust bed elevations or add soil amendments to prevent water from pooling around roots. If drainage issues are severe, we may recommend grading work or installing French drains before planting to protect your investment.
Do you guarantee the plants you install?
We stand behind our installation work, but plant survival depends partly on watering and care after we leave. We'll provide watering instructions and check in after installation to make sure everything is establishing properly, and we'll address any issues that come up during the first few weeks.

If your Greensboro property needs new plantings, refreshed beds, or a landscape installation that complements your home or business, Gli Landscaping can design and install a solution that works with your site.
