Backyard Landscape Design Serving Families Throughout Atlantic Beach

From Backyard Project to Playtime Paradise: A Story of Green Dreams

The morning sun glistens in the Hastings’ backyard in Jacksonville, a symphony of emerald green and crisp white rock that whispers of transformation. Gone are the uneven patches and unruly slopes, which, after a backyard landscape design by David Holloway and the tear out and installation by Alex Markowski and crew, this landscape is ready for a game of epic proportions.

This is no ordinary lawn; it’s a dream come true for the Hastings boys, a soccer field carved from the earth properly graded to specifications. Twenty yards of soil were meticulously sculpted, coaxing the ground to level itself for those perfect passes and penalty kicks. Over one hundred feet of Bermuda grass were installed for its beauty and resilience, its blades ready to withstand countless cleated sprints.

But this isn’t just a soccer haven; it’s a family oasis. A crepe myrtle, gracefully sways in the wind by the house, offering dappled shade for lazy lunches under the open sky. Repurposed liriope and blue daze paint vibrant pops of color, while the stately distillum, a low-maintenance evergreen, forms a sturdy foundation for the garden’s tapestry.

Beyond the field, a wall of privacy rises. Lush and verdant, Podocarpus stands create a screen from the curious gaze of golfers.

This isn’t just a backyard; it’s a testament to the communicated vision of the homeowner with our design and installation teams. It’s a reminder that even in the cool embrace of November, dreams can take root, nurtured by the earth’s warmth and the unwavering belief in a greener tomorrow furthered by our hard work and the homeowner’s investment. So, come spring, when the air hums with renewed life, watch the Hastings boys tear across their green kingdom, their laughter echoing through the air, a joyous symphony of play. This is their field, their sanctuary, their legacy etched in green.

And as for the Hastings themselves, they can rest assured that their turf is beautiful and secure. The Command compost nourishes the roots beneath, while the fungal treatment protects against unseen threats, ensuring a healthy, thriving lawn.

We raise a glass to the Hastings’ backyard, a testament to the power of a well-laid plan and a sprinkle of green magic. In this haven, dreams kick-off, friendships blossom, and families find their perfect pitch. This is more than just a backyard; it’s a story waiting to be written, one muddy cleat print, one triumphant goal, one joyful laugh at a time.
