Advantage Landscaping provides professional tree and plant installation in the Las Vegas area. It’s not always easy to maintain a beautiful landscape in the desert. Choosing the right plants for your yard is a good start. We can help you choose the right mixture of shrubs, trees, flowers, succulents, and cacti.
Why Grow Trees In The Desert?
Las Vegas is known for its casinos, not for being green. But with the right level of arbor care, many trees grow very well even in our harsh Mojave climate. Properly cared-for trees can provide shade, privacy, and food — yes, many kinds of fruit trees grow very well in the Vegas Valley.
Trees not only look beautiful, but they are also great for the environment. They produce oxygen, help improve air quality, preserve soil, help conserve water, and support wildlife.
Best Trees For Desert Dwellers
Unlike trees growing naturally in a forest, urban trees do best with regular care. Our landscapers can help you prevent or eliminate tree diseases and pests. We can also treat and prune your plants to assist with growth and structure and to remove dead and diseased branches.
We can install and maintain the most popular types of trees in residential and commercial properties alike.
