A manicured lawn is the heart of most landscape
designs. Proper mowing and edging, when
performed by professionals using
well-maintained equipment, can make your lawn
the centerpiece of your landscape.

Even the healthiest lawns, trees, and shrubs
benefit from proper fertilization programs. Our
suppliers keep us informed of the latest and
the best materials available so we can offer
the consumer a variety of choices. Code Green
can even apply organic fertilizers where
needed.

When a property has not been maintained,
clean-ups offer an option for returning your
landscape to a manageable level. An initial
edging, mowing, weeding, pruning, and trimming
can dramatically and quickly restore your
property to a point where a maintenance program
can be initiated. Save time and energy by
letting us begin the process of enhancing the
beauty and value of your property.

Proper tree pruning and hedge trimming is
essential not only for the appearance of your
landscape but for the health of your trees and
shrubs.

To enhance the appearance of your beds, Code
Green can apply many different types of mulch.
Whether it is cedar bark chips (in varying
sizes) or organic compost, you can add natural
beauty along with a tough weed barrier.

Take the guesswork and worry out of planting
annuals in your flowerbeds by scheduling
seasonal color changes. By planting the right
plant, in the right spot, at the right time,
you can add year-round beauty to your home or
commercial property. From a one-time color
display for a special occasion to a year-round
color plan, Code Green offers high-quality
nursery stock, installed professionally, adding
a distinctive finishing touch to your
landscape. In addition to colorful plants, your
garden area might benefit from beauty bark or
one of many types of decorative rock.

Aerating is the process of removing plugs of
grass and soil from the lawn to allow water,
oxygen, fertilizers, and other nutrients to
penetrate the soil and better reach the roots
of your grass. This process can also help break
up thatch in your yard.

When aerating is not enough or the layer of
thatch build-up is too great, mechanical thatch
removal (power raking) may be the answer. This
process removes the layer of grass stems,
roots, clippings, and debris that settle on the
ground and accumulate over time. Thatch
removal, like aerating, allows water and other
nutrients to better reach your lawn’s root
system.

The best defense against lawn weeds is a thick,
dense growth of healthy grass. Add to the
appearance of your lawn or create a new one
with overseeding. Code Green selects quality
seed for use in the Pacific Northwest that will
boost the health of your existing lawn or
create a brand new one that your neighbors will
envy.

A healthy and natural way to feed you lawn,
topdressings of organic compost can aid in
fertilizing and add to existing topsoil. To
increase germination of new grass seed after an
overseeding, have Code Green apply an organic
compost to help keep moisture in and the sun
out until seeds have begun their new life,
adding fullness to your existing or new lawn.

Whether in your planting areas or in
undeveloped areas of your property, we can
control unwanted plants and noxious weeds.

One of the regions worst lawn insect pests,
crane fly larvae can destroy all or portions of
your lawn in a very short time. One or two
applications of turf insecticide will help
control lawn damage. Insecticide is typically
applied in the fall and again in the spring.
Diazanon™ and Dursban™ can help eliminate the
crane fly larvae and the damage they cause.

If problems persist, we offer diagnostic
services to determine what problems exist and
how to best combat them.

Leaf accumulation on lawns can cause damage
from lack of sunlight, water accumulation, and
spread of disease. We recommend that leaves be
removed from lawns to avoid these potential
problems.

Our climate can dull the appearance of concrete
and brick. Walkways in shady areas where slimes
and moss exist are not only unsightly but a
slip hazard. Code Green can renew the
appearance of concrete and brick, bringing back
more of the original look while increasing the
safety around your home or business.

Save time and water more efficiently, even while
on vacation, with an automatic sprinkler system.
Whether you need a new system or your existing
system needs repair contact Code Green for a
free estimate.
