Testimonials

"The professionalism of Owner Tim Rost, Landscape Designer Jake Frink and Landscaping Supervisor Dale Rost was very impressive.  Their knowledge, plant quality, communications, and overall service was outstanding and exceeded our high expectations.  The landscape design process is deliberate and easy and resulted is a thoughtful and beautiful plan.  The installation was even better!  There was ongoing dialogue about how to further enhance the plan.  The on-site selection and placement of plant and trees was completed in a studied and careful manner.  The creative and artful installation of the natural stone steps winding down a long, steep slope among beautiful plants and trees looks awesome.  I highly recommend Rost Landscaping to homeowners who will appreciate the art of thier fine design and installation."

Landscape Lighting Design & Installation

In today's fast paced world, it is hard for working individuals to find time to spend relaxing at home; the time we find rarely consists of ample amounts of day light hours. Landscaping is an investment in your home that should be enjoyed by you, as the investor.  Increasing the amount of time you can personally enjoy your surroundings as well as adding a new dimension to the aesthetics and provide added security. We have Landscape Designers who have been specially trained in landscape lighting design and installation.  There are some beautiful examples of our work in the Rost Landscaping Gallery.

Water Feature Design & Installation

Creating ambiance and interest in the landscape is often created with a water feature. No other feature can "single handedly" offer the visual, tactile and aural stimulation provided by water. Our Landscape Designers and Crews are well-skilled in the design and installation of beautiful and natural-looking water features of all shapes and sizes.  Please visit the Rost Landscaping Gallery for inspiring examples.
