Winter Landscaping TIP
The temperatures have already dipped in the 20's. If you have recently installed plants, shrubs, or smaller trees they need to be covered to prevent ice from forming on the leaves. You can cover them with canvas, burlap, sheets, or frost cloth purchasable at a landscaping center.
Winter 2025
January 2025 is promising snow in the South! Winter storm Cora threatens to drop 2" and above across the mid eastern and southern states this second weekend of the new year. Hold on to your britches and throw on a warm blanket by the fire. Or pour a hot cup of cocoa and feast your eyes on the snow we haven't had in Atlanta since 2022!
MSL has been busy easing into the new year with shrub-plant installations and clean-ups this first week in January. Drainage and landscaping yard design prep post snow shock are also on the January schedule.
MSL is a YEAR AROUND landscaper. Winter is a GREAT time to work on design projects, prep gardens, install drainage, and clean up beds so that spring flowers are brilliant. Don't put off projects for spring and summer when they can be completed in the winter.
Happy New Year,
Marcus Sommers,
Horticulturist and Principal

About Us
"The love of gardening is a seed once sown that never dies." ~G. Jekyll, Horticulturist
"For as long as I can remember I have had a passion for the outdoors and the flowers, trees, and plants that were the playgrounds of my childhood in Georgia. Gardens were a major part of my family life. When my love for gardens manifested, I was encouraged by my family early on to continue my education as a horticulturist and Master Gardener.
We specialize in residential and small business design and installation of stone walls and patios, water intrusion repair, Southern garden design and installation, native plant and flower education and installation, lawn maintenance for current design clients residential land space clean-ups, and sod installations.
Each new client project brings an experience that we learn and grow from as we enhance and build outdoor spaces. We look forward to the new and creative ways we discover every day to serve our clients.
As we connect more with our colleagues and industry partners we are able to offer a wider spectrum of landscape offerings. We seek to continually support the local communities around us with our services."

Testimonials
"Marcus at Marcus Sommers Landscaping did a fantastic job on our front yard landscaping project. We had a tricky side yard under a big oak tree with big roots where we couldn't get anything to grow. He came up with a creative solution, and now the area is beautifully landscaped and complements the rest of the yard. Marcus worked with me on budget and preferred plants, and was willing to divide and use some plants I already had growing elsewhere. He was very knowledgeable and happy to answer questions about selecting plants and caring for the landscape."
Lanier Bauer, Candler Park
