Transforming a Backyard with Arborvitae
At Red Rose Landscaping LLC, we pride ourselves on turning outdoor spaces into serene sanctuaries that offer both beauty and functionality. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with a new homeowner, Julie, who reached out to us seeking help with her backyard. Her goal was simple yet essential: to create a sense of privacy in her outdoor space.
The Challenge: Finding Instant Privacy
Julie's backyard was lovely, but it lacked the privacy she desired to fully enjoy her new home. She had a clear vision — she wanted tall arborvitae plants that would provide instant coverage and create a welcoming atmosphere. After doing her research, Julie visited Lopez Nursery to explore her options. She was impressed by the selection and the friendly, knowledgeable staff.
She decided to enlist our team to assist with the installation of 17 nine-foot arborvitae, as the height and density of these plants would provide the perfect solution to her privacy concerns.
Our Approach: Expert Installation
When Julie contacted us, we promptly scheduled a day for the installation that worked for her. Our team arrived on time, equipped with beautiful, healthy arborvitae ready to be planted. We understand that planting large trees can be labor-intensive. Therefore, we brought our dedication and expertise to ensure that everything went smoothly.
Here’s a brief overview of our installation process:
1. Site Preparation: We carefully selected the best spots in Julie's backyard for the arborvitae, ensuring optimal growth and visual appeal.
2. Digging Plant Holes: We dug deep and wide holes in the ground, considering the roots of the arborvitae to ensure they have enough space to thrive once planted.
3. Planting: The arborvitae were delicately placed into the prepared holes and surrounded with nutrient-rich soil to encourage growth.
4. Final Touches: Finally, we watered the plants thoroughly and ensured they were well-positioned for support, ready to take root.
The Result: A Backyard Oasis
The transformation was stunning! Julie's backyard was instantly elevated, now boasting a lush green wall of arborvitae that effectively provided the privacy she sought. We take pride in our attention to detail and commitment to quality, and we were thrilled to see how happy our work made Julie.
She expressed her gratitude with a glowing review:
> "I just moved into a new home and needed privacy for the backyard. [...] A fantastic job. I highly recommend Lopez Nursery. The price was VERY reasonable for the size plants I received and the hard work it takes to install such large plants. I am thrilled and highly recommend them."
Her satisfying experience exemplifies our mission to not only meet but exceed our clients' expectations.

Transforming a Camas Backyard
Transforming a Camas Backyard
At Red Rose Landscaping LLC, we take immense pride in our ability to transform outdoor spaces according to our clients' visions. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with Carol Meyer, who reached out to us seeking help with her undeveloped backyard at her new home in Camas, WA. Carol wanted a stunning yet low-maintenance landscape that would enhance the beauty of her property and align with her personal tastes.
The Challenge: An Untouched Canvas
When Carol first contacted us, her backyard was a blank slate—an undeveloped area that lacked character and functionality. With so many landscaping options available, she felt overwhelmed and unsure about how to proceed. After reaching out to several other landscaping companies and finding most were booked for months, she was relieved to discover our team could accommodate her project.
Crafting the Perfect Design
We scheduled a consultation to discuss Carol's ideas and preferences in detail. Listening carefully to her requirements, we created a tailored design that would not only meet her aesthetic desires but also ensure easy maintenance.
The final design included 54 carefully selected plants, shrubs, and trees, sourced from Tsugawa's, a local nursery known for its quality and variety. We also incorporated practical elements such as paver pathways, paver platforms, and an in-ground irrigation system with emitters for each plant and shrub to conserve water and ensure the health of her landscaping investment.
Overcoming Challenges: Execution with Precision
Our team, spearheaded by Luis, worked diligently to bring this vision to life. Commitment to communication was paramount; we used an app to provide frequent updates on project progress and arrival times. As challenges arose, such as adjusting to the site conditions, we made necessary tweaks without compromising the overall design.
Sergio and Josue, our skilled team members, played pivotal roles in executing the project alongside Luis. They implemented landscape fabric to control weeds and unwanted grass, improved the soil quality for better plant health, and applied rubber mulch to create a vibrant and sustainable look—everything came together beautifully!
> "Luis is very personable, genuinely listened to what I wanted, and suggested slight alternatives that would also save me money. My project has received rave compliments from friends and neighbors!" - Carol Meyer
The Result: A Low-Maintenance Oasis
The final result was nothing short of spectacular! Carol's backyard was transformed into a beautiful, low-maintenance oasis that is both functional and visually appealing. With the paver pathways guiding visitors through a lush realm of greenery and the efficient irrigation system in place, Carol can now enjoy her outdoor space without the hassle of constant upkeep.
The feedback from Carol has been overwhelmingly positive, highlighting the efficiency of our work and the aesthetic enhancement we brought to her home. This project not only meets her needs but also amplifies the tranquility she sought for her backyard.
Conclusion: Your Vision, Our Commitment
At Red Rose Landscaping LLC, we understand that every outdoor space reflects its owner. We were thrilled to assist Carol in realizing her landscaping dreams, and we look forward to bringing similar transformations to more homes in Camas and the surrounding areas.

Backyard Transformed: A Stunning Makeover
Backyard Transformed: A Stunning Makeover
At Red Rose Landscaping LLC, we pride ourselves on the transformational work we do for our clients. When Markus Jebbius reached out to us, he faced a significant challenge: a neglected backyard with a steep hillside filled with massive boulders. The area was underutilized and far from the sanctuary he envisioned for his family.
The Before: Challenges Unveiled
The existing backyard was not only unkempt but also difficult to navigate due to the heavy boulders and uneven terrain. It was evident that a drastic makeover was needed to create a functional and inviting outdoor space. Our team at Red Rose Landscaping understood this and was excited about the challenge. From our very first conversation with Markus, we aimed to listen attentively to his ideas and needs while bringing our expertise into the fold.
The Transformation Journey
The project began with extensive excavation of the boulder-heavy hillside. This challenging step required skilled demolition work, as we needed to safely remove the massive stones that were obstructing the area. Utilizing heavy excavators, we successfully extracted these boulders and repurposed them creatively throughout the project.
Craftsmanship and Attention to Detail
One of the focal points of our work was the creation of a beautiful retaining wall. We strategically incorporated the boulders removed from the hillside into a new retaining wall on the side of the house, which not only added structural integrity but also enhanced the natural aesthetics of the landscape.
We took great care in adding stairs leading into the hillside, allowing easy access to different levels of the yard. The craftsmanship displayed in these installations reflects our team's dedication to meticulous detail.
Building the Heart of the Outdoor Space
As the project progressed, we included a firepit and utilized the retaining wall as an additional seating area. This addition transformed the backyard from mere ground into an enchanting gathering spot perfect for family and friends. Our team worked tirelessly over two weeks to ensure that every aspect of the project was executed flawlessly.
The After: A Beautiful Outdoor Oasis
The completed transformation was nothing short of incredible. Markus truly encapsulated the results, stating:
> "We totally love the pavers, and how it all blends in so seamlessly. Their ability to seamlessly combine functionality with creativity truly sets Red Rose Landscaping apart... Their work exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t be happier that we chose them for our project."
It is always rewarding to hear our clients express such delight in our work. The once-neglected backyard has now become a beautiful outdoor oasis where family memories can be made around the firepit, creating an ideal atmosphere for gatherings.
Why Choose Us?
At Red Rose Landscaping, we believe our combination of creative vision, attention to detail, and exceptional customer service distinguishes us from the competition. Luis, our lead landscaper, ensures that every project reflects his commitment to integrity and quality, offering transparent pricing and outstanding craftsmanship.
