Yards & conditions in Boston
Boston sits in USDA hardiness zone 6b with cold, snowy winters and warm summers. Local yards typically deal with rocky, acidic clay and freeze-thaw cycles, rocky ground and a compressed growing season. That’s why Boston lawns are usually planted with cool-season fescue, Kentucky bluegrass and ryegrass, with the best results in early fall and spring. A local pro factors all of this in — read more in our guide.
When to schedule landscaping in Boston
The busiest stretch for landscaping in Boston is early fall and spring, when planting and installs take best. Booking a little ahead of the rush means better availability and pricing.

What affects your Boston landscaping price
No two Boston projects are priced the same. The biggest factors are the size of your yard, how much design and planting is involved, the amount of hardscaping, site access, and any grading or drainage work. Because of that, an on-site look and an itemized quote will always beat a number pulled off the internet.
