Heavy Red Clay
Clay soils stay wet in spring and harden in drought. Amending the planting area gives roots room to move.

Plant installation in New Franken happens on country ground. The community sits along Highway 54/57 northeast of Green Bay, with farm fields, woodlots, and homes on big rural parcels between the city and the Kewaunee County line. JM Landscaping LLC has been planting across Northeast Wisconsin since 1989, and out here the job is less about filling a small bed and more about making a house fit its land.
The heavy red clay here holds water, and the Niagara Escarpment isn't far, so some properties hit rock early. Our plant installation services look at both before choosing species from our plant installation selections. Searching plant installation near me from New Franken tends to turn up city crews. We're just as comfortable on a rural property.

Near the escarpment, bedrock can sit within a shovel's depth or two. We test before committing a tree to a spot.
Open country takes wind off the bay and across the farms. Windbreaks and sheltered beds keep evergreens from burning.
Rural drives need plantings that frame the approach without blocking sightlines at the road or catching drifts.
Homes beside the woods see deer and rabbits daily. We favor browse-resistant species near the tree line.
Residential plant installation scaled to acreage, with tree groupings, windbreaks, and foundation beds that tie the house to the land around it.
Commercial plant installation for shops, churches, and small businesses along the highway, with salt-tolerant plants near the road and tidy beds at the entrance.
Garden installation on rural lots, where there's space for larger perennial borders, pollinator beds, and a new patio to enjoy them from.
Flower bed installation at the mailbox and along the drive, with hardy perennials that handle wind and roadside salt, finished with the mulch and edging that keeps them tidy.
