Landscaping in Lowell, from the ground up

Wikipedia dates the Lowell settlement to 1848, when the Woodlawn Mill was built on the South Fork Catawba River.

We start there, because the ground and the tree cover decide what will actually thrive.

Good beds begin with edging and soil, then plants. Each estimate separates the bed work from the planting so you can see what each part covers.

October to early December is ideal, and early spring is the second window. Cooler air helps roots settle before summer heat arrives.
