Announcements to share with you

Deb's Gardening has been honored with our fifth Award of Excellence in Landscaping from Associated Landscape Contractors of Colorado. We are the only Southern Colorado landscaping company to win in 2008. As our niche reputation continues to grow in our industry, we continue to learn, improve, and be among the best landscapers in Colorado for you. For more information visit www.alcc.com.

We’ve moved! Deb's Gardening now has a new home among beautiful gardens, landscape, and wildlife in a classic area of Colorado Springs once known as “Bird Hill.” At this new location Deb is already planning demonstration gardens that will allow clients to view xeric gardens, container gardens, select garden art, methods of composting, and how to better incorporate wildlife into gardens.

We attended Pro Green Expo where we attended daily seminars and continuing education classes. It’s important for us to stay current in our education, be aware of new technology and trends, and share and learn information with peers from all over the state. Additionally, two of our gardeners, Jessica Wentling and Elaine Perkins, are en route to receiving their Colorado Gardener Certificates.

Deb’s 2009 Landscaping Trends Predictions

1. During times of economic instability, gardens will be especially important in providing:
a. A place of assured stability, solace and reflection
b. A place in which to relax and share the comfort of friends and loved ones
c. A place in which we can save money and promote health by growing our own food
d. A place in which we can hold and even improve the value of our homes.

2. Outdoor Living Spaces continue to be very important to people.
The outdoor living space is a part of decorating for the homeowner. At our trade show we met “outdoor designers” who can advise you on just the right table, curtains, rugs and art for your outdoor room.

3. Sustainability in the landscape continues to grow.

Award winning landscaper, landscaper, Allison Peck of Matrix Designs helped create the first Denver panel of Sustainability in the Landscape which focuses on making our industry greener. Best Management Practices with special focus on efficient use of water in the landscape will continue to grow and be regulated.

4. Retro-Gardens
The return of the tried and true but with a new twist. As the “Gen-Y” population begins to emerge, they’ll be looking to Grandma for advice on what to plant in the garden since most of their time growing-up has been spent on computers, Game-Boy and “texting.” Additionally look for the re-emegence of succulent plants with a new look.

Lastly and primarily…

We are still here for you. We were recently interviewed by an industry magazine about our company’s “success.” I couldn’t help but giggle, and be grateful to be considered a successful landscape company. It has been sad to see some of our larger landscape companies cut jobs and even close. Yet on the flip-side we’ll witness the good riddance of many fly-by-night “landscapers” whom often leave one’s landscape in worse shape than before they arrived.

Please contact us as soon as possible if you would like to renew with us so that we can begin properly planning to care for your gardens this season.  Enjoy the season!
