Landscape Design and Installation in St. Peters, MO

St. Peters homeowners invest in quality homes but often overlook the outdoor spaces that frame them. Subdivisions throughout the city feature houses with potential, yet front yards remain sparse and backyards go unused. Done Right Landscapes brings professional design expertise to St. Peters properties, creating planted environments that enhance curb appeal and extend your living space outdoors.

Our team has worked in St. Peters for nearly twenty years, delivering landscape design and installation that performs through Missouri’s challenging seasons.

Custom Landscape Plans for St. Peters Yards

No two St. Peters properties share identical conditions. Homes near Mid Rivers Mall face different challenges than estates along the Missouri River bluffs. We develop landscape plans specific to your site.

St. Peters soil ranges from heavy clay to rocky substrate depending on location. We test drainage before selecting plants and specify species proven to establish in your specific conditions. This site-specific approach prevents the common mistake of choosing plants that look attractive at nurseries but fail within a season.

Our planning process examines:

  • Slope and grade variations across your lot
  • Existing vegetation and what to preserve
  • How your family uses outdoor space currently
  • Views you want to enhance or screen
  • Maintenance level you prefer long term

Professional Installation That Establishes Healthy Landscapes

The gap between landscape plans and thriving gardens comes down to installation quality. Our crews understand plant biology and proper technique.

Installation steps we never skip:

  • Soil testing and amendment based on actual pH and composition
  • Root ball inspection to remove circling roots before planting
  • Proper hole width at two to three times root ball diameter
  • Backfill technique that eliminates air pockets
  • Mulch application at correct depth to retain moisture without suffocating roots
  • Thorough watering schedule for the first growing season

St. Peters properties installed by our team show higher survival rates and faster establishment. Plants develop strong root systems that support growth for decades rather than struggling through their first years.

Selecting Plants That Thrive in St. Peters

Missouri’s continental climate tests plants with temperature extremes. St. Peters landscapes need species adapted to hot summers exceeding 95 degrees and winter lows below zero.

Trees that anchor St. Peters landscapes:

  • Eastern redbud for early spring flowers and heart-shaped leaves
  • River birch with distinctive peeling bark and flood tolerance
  • Arborvitae for evergreen screening along property lines

Perennials proven for St. Peters conditions:

  • Salvia and Russian sage for drought tolerance once established
  • Daylilies in sun and hostas for shade with minimal care requirements
  • Switchgrass and little bluestem as native ornamental grasses

Ground covers solving difficult areas:

  • Ajuga for dense coverage in partial shade under oaks and maples
  • Thyme between stepping stones and in sunny rock gardens
  • Liriope as low-maintenance edging along beds and walkways

Our landscape products catalog includes species selected for performance in St. Charles County rather than trends that fail locally.

Creating Year-Round Interest in Your Landscape

Static landscapes look appealing for six weeks then fade into background greenery. Strategic design creates visual progression across seasons.

Planned seasonal transitions:

Early bulbs like crocus and daffodils signal spring before trees leaf out

Peonies and iris carry late spring into early summer color

Coneflowers, rudbeckia, and daylilies dominate summer months

Sedum, asters, and ornamental grasses provide fall interest through first frost

Functional garden areas for St. Peters families:

  • Native plant gardens supporting local pollinators and reducing water needs
  • Herb gardens near kitchen doors for cooking convenience
  • Rain gardens capturing runoff in attractive planted depressions

These purpose-built spaces make St. Peters yards feel intentional rather than leftover areas around the house.

Comprehensive Outdoor Services

Landscape plantings often integrate with structural elements. Done Right also provides retaining walls to manage slopes, landscape lighting for evening visibility and ambiance, and commercial maintenance for St. Peters businesses needing reliable grounds care.
