New flower beds, planting, mulch, trimmed hedges and steady upkeep, all from one local crew that has cared for yards in the Valley since 2012.
Phillips Care Landscaping · Warren, OH
Phillips Care Landscaping provides landscaping services across Trumbull and Mahoning County: new flower beds, planting, bed edging, mulch, hedge and shrub trimming, seasonal cleanups and ongoing landscape maintenance. Our crew is based in Warren, Ohio, we are locally owned, and every job starts with a free quote after we walk your yard.
Fernando Phillips worked in lawn care for years before he started the company in 2012, and lawn and landscaping was the first thing we ever did. The goal has not changed since: your landscaping is neat and just the way you want it, and your lawn is properly mowed and edged.
What Our Landscaping Services Include
Landscaping is the work that shapes and keeps up the planted parts of a yard: beds, shrubs, hedges, flowers, mulch and the clean edges between bed and lawn. Lawn care keeps the grass cut. Landscaping makes the whole yard look finished and keeps it that way through the seasons.
Most homeowners start with one job and add the rest once they see the difference. Here is what our landscaping services cover.
Flower Bed Installation and Planting
We lay out new beds or rework tired ones: marking the shape, cutting a clean edge, preparing the soil and planting shrubs, perennials and seasonal flowers where they will grow well. You tell us the look you want, and we tell you what will hold up in your yard's sun and soil.
Landscape Maintenance
Beds look great the week they go in. Keeping them that way is the hard part, so our landscaping services do not stop at install day. Landscape maintenance visits keep beds tidy, plants shaped, edges crisp and old growth cut back, so your yard looks cared for all season instead of for one weekend in May.
Mulch Installation and Bed Edging
Fresh mulch is the fastest way to make a whole yard look sharp. We edge the beds first so the line between bed and lawn stays clean, then spread an even layer. See our mulch installation and bed edging page for colors, timing and how much your beds need.
Hedge, Bush and Shrub Trimming
Overgrown hedges hide windows, block paths to the door and make a house look older than it is. We trim hedges, bushes and shrubs back to a clean, even shape. Details are on our hedge and shrub trimming page.
If a shrub is past saving, we can pull it out and replant the space.
Spring Cleanup and Fall Leaf Removal
Every yard in Northeast Ohio comes out of winter with matted leaves, broken branches and beds that need clearing. Our spring yard cleanup gets beds and lawn ready for the season. In the fall, leaf removal and fall cleanup clears the yard before snow comes.
Lawn Mowing and Edging
Beds look best next to a lawn that is cut and edged on a schedule. Our weekly lawn mowing pairs with any of our landscaping services, so one crew handles the whole yard.
Landscape Design Help for Your Yard
You do not need a blueprint to get a yard that looks put together. A few simple rules do most of the work, and we use them on every bed we plant:
- Plant in odd numbers. Groups of 3, 5 or 7 of the same plant look natural. Even numbers tend to look stiff and lined up.
- Layer by height. Taller shrubs in back, medium plants in the middle, low flowers and ground cover up front.
- Match the plant to the spot. Full sun, part shade and wet corners each need different plants. We look before we plant.
- Pick plants that handle Ohio winters. Hardy shrubs and perennials come back every spring, so you are not replanting every year.
- Plan for upkeep. If you want a yard that is easy to keep up, we lean on shrubs and perennials over annual flowers.
Bring photos of yards you like, or just tell us what bothers you about yours. We will walk it with you and suggest a plan that fits the house and the budget.

How Landscaping Pricing Works
The cost of landscaping services depends on the yard, so we quote after we see it. These are the things that move the price up or down:
| What we look at | Why it changes the price |
|---|---|
| Size and number of beds | More square feet means more edging, soil work and mulch |
| Number and size of plants | Larger shrubs cost more and take longer to plant than small perennials |
| Starting condition | Overgrown beds, old mulch and dense growth take more time to clear first |
| Materials | The type and amount of mulch, soil and plants you choose |
| Access | Tight spaces, slopes and long carries add time |
| One visit or ongoing | Recurring maintenance is planned as a route, so each visit is simpler than a one-time catch-up |
The quote is free and there is no pressure to book. If the full plan is more than you want to spend this year, we can split it into phases.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do landscaping services include?
At Phillips Care, landscaping services cover new flower beds, planting shrubs and flowers, bed edging, mulch installation, hedge and shrub trimming, spring cleanup, leaf removal and ongoing landscape maintenance. We also mow and edge lawns, so one crew can handle the whole yard. Every job starts with a free quote after we walk the property and talk through what you want.
How much should I expect to pay for landscaping?
It depends on the yard. The biggest factors are the size and number of beds, how many plants go in and how large they are, the condition of the beds when we start, the materials you choose and how easy the yard is to work in. Ongoing maintenance is usually simpler per visit than a one-time catch-up. We quote for free after we see the yard, so you know the price before any work starts.
What do landscapers usually charge per hour?
Hourly rates vary a lot between companies, and an hourly number does not tell you what the finished job will cost. That is why we price the job, not the clock. We walk the yard, look at the beds, plants and access, and give you one price for the work. You know the total before we start, and you never have to watch the crew and count hours.
What is the 3-5-7 rule in landscaping?
The 3-5-7 rule says to plant the same plant in odd-numbered groups of 3, 5 or 7. Odd groups look natural and full, while even numbers tend to look stiff and lined up. We use it when we plant new beds, along with layering by height: taller shrubs in back, medium plants in the middle and low flowers or ground cover in front.
What is the rule of three in landscaping?
The rule of three means grouping plants, colors or shapes in threes so a bed looks balanced and natural. A single shrub can look lost and a pair can look forced, but three of the same plant reads as one strong group. It is the starting point of the 3-5-7 rule, and it works well in smaller beds near the front of a house.
When is the best time to book landscaping in Northeast Ohio?
Book spring work early. Demand for mowing and mulch peaks in April and May, so calling in late winter or early spring gets you on the schedule before the rush. Fall is a good time for cleanup and cutting back beds, and leaf removal peaks in November. If you want ongoing maintenance, setting it up before spring means your beds are covered from the first visit.
