Planting Services & Garden Design in Ridgewood NJ
Front Yard Planting Design
A well-planned front planting design transforms your Ridgewood property into a polished, welcoming landscape. In the front yard, our goal is to boost curb appeal with balanced layouts that frame your home, highlight architectural features, and guide the eye to entryways. We use structured layering — evergreens for year-round foundation, mid-height shrubs for texture, and colorful perennials for seasonal interest — to create a clean, elegant look that lasts.
BackYard Planting Design in Ridgewood NJ
Your backyard planting design sets the tone for how you’ll experience your outdoor space day to day. In Ridgewood, where many properties feature generous green space and mature trees, thoughtful backyard layouts can turn plain lawns into beautiful, functional outdoor living areas.
We focus on defining zones through strategic planting. Trees and shrubs can frame patios and seating areas, creating a sense of privacy and structure. Ornamental grasses and perennials can soften the edges of walkways, retaining walls, and fences, blending hardscapes seamlessly with nature. Larger shade trees offer natural cooling in summer, while layered beds along the perimeter help screen unwanted views and give the yard a finished, landscaped feel.
Backyard plantings also allow for seasonal interest and color. Flowering shrubs like hydrangeas or azaleas, combined with evergreens, ensure the space looks vibrant from spring through winter.
🌲 Privacy Tree Installation in ridgewood, nJ
Create natural, beautiful privacy around your property with professional privacy tree installation in Ridgewood, NJ. Whether you want to screen neighboring homes, block street views, or simply define your property line, privacy trees offer a long-lasting and low-maintenance solution. Unlike fences, trees grow fuller and more attractive with time, blending seamlessly into the landscape while adding value to your home.
We carefully select and install the right species based on your property layout, sunlight, soil type, and growth goals. Popular choices in Ridgewood include:
Our team handles everything from layout planning and spacing to precision planting, staking, and mulching, ensuring a straight, uniform, and healthy hedge line. Over time, these trees mature into thick, natural barriers that provide privacy, wind protection, noise reduction, and a polished landscape appearance.
🌿 The Importance of Plant Staging
Proper plant staging is one of the most overlooked — yet crucial — steps in creating a professional, long-lasting landscape. Before anything goes in the ground, we carefully lay out every tree, shrub, and perennial in its exact position, allowing us to visualize the final design in real time and make adjustments on-site.
This step ensures:
✅ Correct spacing for future growth so plants don’t crowd or compete over time
✅ Balanced layering of heights, textures, and colors for a polished, intentional look
✅ Proper alignment along walkways, patios, and foundation lines for strong visual structure
✅ Optimized sun and shade placement, making sure each plant thrives in its environment
✅ Client input before planting, allowing you to see the design layout and make tweaks confidently

Fantastic Experience! the level of professional and honesty is something we don't see these days. The guys showed up earlier than expected and completed the job in 1 day! We would certainly use them again for any future Landscaping needs.Posted on Jarvis RoqueTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The exterior of our house looked so decrepit that it would make one question if anyone even lived here. Then, along came Pedro and RVG. On day one, the team cleaned up the property thoroughly and discarded miscellaneous debris that had been an eyesore for years. On day two, RVG removed the old "grass," leveled the area with fresh topsoil, and installed beautiful new sod. It's now a joy for me to look outside and I actually find myself excited to invite friends & family over more often. Moreover, our toddler can now run around the yard safely! Pedro and Carlos and the whole team all worked quickly, respectfully, and efficiently. I can't speak highly enough of RVG Landscaping. Top notch work and they do go above and beyond. Highly recommend!Posted on Robert A.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend RVG. Carlo was great to work with and he and his crew did an amazing job with our garden project. Their price was actually reasonable in comparison to others (not even in the same ball park) and although we didn’t have a huge job to be completed, RVG treated us like we did. I would strongly encourage you to give RVG a call. You won’t be dissapointed.
