A Fresh New Look for Stratford Landscape: 2025 Planting Design & Installation Project

At Shannon Lawn & Landscaping, we recently transformed the front and side yard of a Stratford home with a complete planting design & installation project. The job began with the removal of old, overgrown plantings that no longer fit the homeowner’s vision. From there, our team designed a fresh new layout and installed a variety of shrubs, perennials, and specialty trees to give the property a polished and vibrant new look.

The installation featured high-quality materials including mulch, topsoil, and fertilizer, along with standout plants such as:

- Straight & Narrow® Japanese Holly (Ilex crenata ‘Straight & Narrow’)

- Bloomstruck® Bigleaf Hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla ‘Bloomstruck’)

- Little Hottie® Panicle Hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata ‘Little Hottie’)

- Red Drift® Rose (Rosa ‘Meigalpio’ – marketed as Drift® Red)

- Double Knock Out® Rose (Rosa ‘Radtko’ – marketed as Double Knock Out®)

- Anna’s Magic Ball® Arborvitae (Thuja occidentalis ‘Anna van Vloten’)

- Green Velvet Boxwood (Buxus ‘Green Velvet’)

- Lavender Twist® Redbud (Cercis canadensis ‘Covey’ – Lavender Twist®)

- Silver Sunproof Liriope (Liriope muscari ‘Silver Sunproof’)

- Cat’s Pajamas Catmint (Nepeta faassenii ‘Cat’s Pajamas’)

- Little Bunny Fountain Grass (Pennisetum alopecuroides ‘Little Bunny’)

The finished landscape delivers year-round appeal with evergreens for structure, hydrangeas and roses for vibrant blooms, and ornamental grasses and perennials for texture and seasonal interest.

To help maintain this investment, Shannon Lawn & Landscaping also offers professional plant health care services throughout Stratford, designed to keep your trees, shrubs, and ornamental plants thriving season after season. This ensures that the beauty and value of your new landscape last for years to come.
