Landscaping Services in Charlotte, NC

Hortus-Flora handles the planting side of a yard — garden beds, mulch, and plant selections matched to Charlotte's climate and to the light and soil conditions of the specific property, chosen to hold up through the summer rather than need replacing within a season. This work is usually planned alongside a hardscape or drainage project, since bed placement and planting depend on how water moves through the yard.

Services

  • Sod & Lawn Establishment

    New lawns and replacement of patchy, worn-out turf, laid over graded soil so water moves away rather than pooling on the surface.

  • Mulch Installation

    Mulch installed as part of the overall bed and planting plan, at a depth that holds moisture without piling up against trunks and stems. Beds are edged and cut before mulch goes down, so the line holds through the season rather than blurring after the first heavy rain.

  • Garden Bed Design & Planting

    Garden beds laid out and planted based on the sun, soil, and drainage conditions of the specific yard.

  • Plant Selection

    Plants chosen for how they will hold up through a Charlotte summer, not just how they look going in — which also means less water and fewer replacements down the road.

  • Artificial Turf Installation

    Artificial turf for pet areas, play spaces and shaded sections where grass keeps failing, installed over a compacted, drained base.

Landscaping Company in Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, and Union County

Hortus-Flora LLC handles planting, garden beds, sod, and mulch in Charlotte and across Mecklenburg and Union counties. The company is led by Vladimir. He studied civil engineering at Bauman Moscow State Technical University, finished in 2012, and spent the next years in construction before he and his wife opened the original firm in 2015. Planting is planned the same way as the hardscape: where water goes, how much sun a bed gets and what the soil will hold are settled first. The Charlotte team is small on purpose. It covers the build, the planting and the floral details, and coordinates backflow work with a plumbing partner it trusts.

Frequently Asked Questions

— Do you handle regular lawn care, like mowing or fertilization?
— No — the focus is planting, beds, sod, and mulch installation rather than routine lawn maintenance.
— Is this available on its own, or only as part of a larger project?
— Yes — available on its own, not only as part of a larger hardscape or drainage project.
— Can plants and beds be added to an existing landscape, or only new yards?
— Yes — plants and beds can be added to an existing landscape, not only planned as part of a new yard.
— When is the best time to plant in Charlotte?
— Charlotte sits in the transition zone, so timing depends on what is going in. Cool-season lawns establish best in early fall. Warm-season grasses go in from late spring through early summer. Shrubs and perennials do best in fall or early spring, when roots keep growing but heat stress is low.
— How deep should mulch be, and how often does it need refreshing?
— Two to three inches over a bed is the usual working depth. Deeper than that holds moisture against stems and starts working against the plants it is meant to protect. Beds are normally topped up once a year rather than fully stripped and replaced.
