Sullivan & Son FAQs
-
What plants & shrubs are deer resistant?

For more information about the best plants and trees for your property, call Sullivan & Son Land Management today for a free consultation and estimate on (203) 461-0604.
-
What plants and shrubs are NOT deer resistant?
Balsam Fir, Fraser Fir, Emerald Green Arborvitae, Eastern Redbud, Atlantic White Cedar, Clematis, Dogwood, Wintercreeper, English Ivy, Apple & Crabapple, Cherry, Peach & Plum trees, Rhododendron, Roses, European Mountain Ash, and Yew. For the best advice on how to populate your front and back yards, talk to the experts at Sullivan & Son Land Management today on (203) 461-0604.
-
When is the best time to plant grass seed?
In late summer or early fall. September is typically ideal, although it's possible to get away with seeding as early as mid-August or as late as mid October; it really comes down to weather patterns at the time. For all your grass planting and sod installation needs, call Sullivan & Son Land Management on 203.461.0604.
-
When is the best time to water your lawn?
Watering in the morning before 10:00 am is the best time for your lawn. At this time of day It's generally cooler and calmer. This means water has a better chance of soaking into the soil and being absorbed. But if you want the job taken off your hands, call the professionals at Sullivan & Son Land Management on 203.461.0604.
-
How much should I water my lawn?
Ideally your lawn should receive between 1 and 1.5 inches of water each week during the summer, whether from rain or watering. For the best results, give that grass a good soak every second day. Your turf should receive about 1/3 an inch of water every two days in order to maintain deeper roots, this helps protect against drought. Or call Sullivan & Son on 203.461.0604 and have them take care of it for you!
-
When is the best time to plant bulbs?
Spring-blooming bulbs, for example tulips and daffodils, are best planted in September or October. The soil temperatures have cooled by this time and it suits them best that way. Summer-bloomers like dahlia and gladiolus are best installed in the spring after the frosts are no more. For all your garden maintenance needs, Sullivan & Son have you covered!
-
What return can I expect on my landscape investment?
Studies show that well landscaped homes can see increases in value by up to 15%. While Money magazine suggests that more than likely you will recover up to double landscaping costs with a property sale. Even more of a reason to talk to the pros at Sullivan & Son Land Management about landscape construction, hardscaping or ongoing landscape maintenance. Call 203.461.0604.
-
Should I wrap my shrubs in burlap?
Yes, you’ll want to put the wrap in place before the first hard freeze of the winter season and take it off after the final frost of the spring. It’s important not to leave tree wrap year-round because trunk-boring insects love to hide in them. And if you need assistance with this or any other seasonal landscaping services, please let us know!
-
Is the ice melt you apply harmful?
No! We use an environmentally friendly, pet-and-kid-safe ice melt. It is 100% safe for everyone in your family. For all your snow and ice management needs, call Sullivan & Son Land Management on 203.461.0604.
-
What is the fluorescent grass that grows like a weed in my lawn?!
It’s called Nutsedge, and it is definitely a weed! Although it looks like grass, Nutsedge is a perennial weed in the sedge family that is among the most problematic agricultural weeds in temperate climates worldwide. They are difficult to control and form dense colonies. Fortunately, at Sullivan & Son Land Management we know exactly how to handle all your weeding problems. Call today on 203.461.0604 for a free consultation and quote.
-
What is the difference between drip irrigation and a sprinkler system?
If you’ve ever noticed those little black rubber hoses in the soil, in garden beds and plant beds, that is a drip irrigation system. Small holes in these tubes allow water to drip out, ensuring the water is delivered close to the roots and soil. Also, drip lines are unlikely to be trampled on. Sprinkler systems spray water into the air, which is then absorbed into the ground. The type of irrigation system you need will depend on the type of plant or grass you are growing. Sprinkler systems work great for grasses and sod. Drip lines are well suited to garden beds and plants. And there is no company better at sprinkler system installation or drip irrigation installation than Sullivan & Son Land Management.
-
Do I need to include lighting in my landscape design?
No. But lighting is critical for safely using physical landscape elements at night, such as stairs or pathways. It’s also great if outdoor lighting serves to draw your eye into your landscaped spaces at night from inside, creating depth and mood. If you have more questions about landscape lighting, call us any time on 203.461.0604.
-
What surface should I use for my new patio?
Choosing a surface material is a big decision because it really defines the overall look and feel of a space. Cost considerations are also important. The main question is: do you want a hard or semi-hard surface? If you need drainage in your yard or prefer a less formal, more organic look, gravel or decomposed granite are worth considering. However, if you are inclined toward a harder and more enduring surface, a natural stone like bluestone, limestone or concrete pavers may be your best bet. Natural stone is definitely the longest lasting. For that reason they are also more pricey. For all your hardscape and masonry needs, Sullivan & Son Land Management is the absolute best in town. Call today on 203.461.0604.
-
How should I organize my outdoor space?
Here, what you really need to ask is, “how will I really use this space”? Do you have kids? Pets? Will I need space for storage? A grill or fire pit? And how do you want it to feel when you are spending time in your outdoor oasis? It’s essential to consider your personal lifestyle and preferences when thinking about a design layout that works for you. The best consultants and contractors for creating the perfect outdoor space for your property are Sullivan & Son Land Management!
-
My backyard is a mess, what should I do?
You really want to look carefully at what you're dealing with: Does your site have a slope? Does water collect anywhere, and if so, where? Are some parts more sunny or shady than others? Is it windy and exposed? Or do you want to conceal visible access from the outside world? Taking cues from the existing shape and topography is the way to better inform your landscape design ideas and plans. All attributes are opportunities if looked at in the right way, and can make your garden just that much more fantastic. We’d love to help you bring your backyard back to life. Call us today on 203.461.0604.

Landscaping vs. Hardscaping?
Modern landscaping refers to the designing, planning, and construction of gardens and other features that both create usable space for outdoor activities, and enhance the appearance around a home. Landscaping includes hardscaping and softscaping, although many people refer to them as softscaping and landscaping interchangeably. Hardscaping would be the aspect that includes non-organic materials such as stone and woodwork, retaining walls, decks, firepits, and more. Softscaping would then refer to planting designs, creating berms and grading, and mulching. Whether you need landscaping or hardscaping services, Sullivan & Son Land Management has you covered. Call today on 203.461.0604.

When should I aerate my lawn?
Aeration is best done during high growth periods. Usually this is when there’s plenty of rain, therefore usually the spring and fall. Aeration puts stress on the turf, which can do more harm than good if the turf is already struggling due to the heat of the summer. At Sullivan & Son, we recommend fall aeration with overseeding to loosen the soil and develop new growth at the same time. Aeration is great for any lawn, but especially if it gets a lot of foot traffic, is part of new construction with compact soil, or is part of thatch management/prevention program. Call today to set up an appointment with your local lawn aeration specialists!

Our team of landscaping experts know all the ins and outs of what your garden and plants need. Call today to get started on 203.461.0604!

What is the benefit of adding mulch to flower beds?
There are many benefits, including:
• Aiding the soil in retaining its moisture.
• The mulch decomposes over time and adds to the soil’s overall health.
• It blocks sunlight from weeds, helping to keep them at bay.
• Depending on the type of mulch used, it can repel insects.
• Soil erosion is reduced by using mulch.
