February 2015 will go in to the record books for the coldest in Ottawa’s history. We also broke the record for continuous days of skating on the Rideau Canal. This may or may not be a good thing depending on how you feel about winter. Of course winter is part of the reason Lindsay Landscape exists. We spend half of the year servicing our winter clients, both commercial and residential.

That being said, we are just as excited about spring as you are. We are getting ready for the Ottawa Home & Garden Show at the EY Centre March 26 – 29. Please come and introduce yourself. We would love to talk design, gardens, patios and decks. Whatever your needs are we can help you find the right solution for your yard.

Landscape trends for 2015 include the continued desire for low maintenance gardens, high quality natural materials, versatile spaces for outdoor living, privacy planting is always a popular request and continues for 2015. This year we are also seeing the trend towards blended gardens incorporating edibles.

Stay tuned for more spring 2015 updates
