What You Need To Know About Landscaping In Juniper Green

Juniper Green landscaping works the valley: gardens stepping towards the Water of Leith, mature trees, and plots that mix sun at the top with green shade below. The best designs here use both moods instead of fighting the site.

We terrace and step where the ground falls, keep water moving with drainage that respects the slope, and split planting honestly between the sunny open ground and the woodland edge. Patios go where the light is, seating corners where the shelter is, and paths make the whole garden reachable in all weather.

We are through Juniper Green constantly on southwest runs. A project starts with walking the levels and the light, then a plan, a fixed price, and a build phased however the budget prefers.

Landscaping advice

Davie’s Advice before you spend a penny

What Davie tells every customer, whether they book us or not. Free to ignore, but he’s usually right.

Davie Murray, owner of DSM Lawn & Landscape, on the job

  1. Drainage first.

    Patios, decking and planting all fail on waterlogged ground.

  2. Design for how you live.

    Build around how you use the garden, not how it photographs.

  3. Levels before looks.

    Get falls and levels right before anything decorative goes in.

  4. Access saves money.

    Good machinery access takes serious labour cost off a bigger job.

  5. Plant for the site.

    Shade, soil and wind decide what thrives, not the catalogue.

  6. Phasing is fine.

    A good plan lets you build the garden in stages.

What Juniper Green Folk Say About Us

Real reviews from Landscaping customers around Edinburgh and the Lothians.

  • DSM landscaped the area around our hot tub to a very good standard. They did what they said they would, when they said the would, for a reasonable cost. Absolutely no problems and would absolutely recommend them.

    ClaireGoogle review
  • After being let down by several landscaping companies, we were absolutely delighted to find DSM. Scott and Garry came out to quote one afternoon, and by 6pm that same day we had a confirmed price and start date. The quality of their work is exceptional and we couldn’t be happier with how our garden has turned out. The extra touches they added, including power washing our driveway once everything was finished, really show how much pride…

Landscaping in Juniper Green: the local detail

What Matters Here for Landscaping in Juniper Green

The valley plot

Juniper Green gardens work in two registers: open sun on the upper ground, green shade towards the Water of Leith. The best designs use both instead of fighting the site.

Steps and levels

Where the ground falls towards the river we terrace and step, with drainage designed first so winter water passes through the garden rather than pausing in it.

Planting the split

Sun-lovers above, woodland-edge planting below, and paths that make the whole plot reachable in all weathers. The garden reads as one design with two moods.

Starting

Southwest runs weekly. We walk the levels and the light, then plan, price and build, phased however suits.
