Landscaping on Clermont's Hills

Clermont has some of the steepest terrain in Florida, and the ridge soil under it is deep, fast-draining sand. That combination causes two problems we fix every week: erosion and washouts on sloped lots, and dry, stressed turf at the top of hills where water runs off before it soaks in. We terrace and plant slopes with ground covers and shrubs that hold soil, design irrigation zones by elevation, and choose drought-tolerant plants for the high spots.

Watering Days in Clermont

Clermont follows the St. Johns River Water Management District schedule. Under the 2026 Phase III water shortage order, odd-numbered addresses water on Saturday, even-numbered addresses on Sunday, and no irrigation is allowed between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. New sod and plantings get a temporary establishment allowance. We set every controller we install to the current rules.

HOA Communities

Many Clermont neighborhoods, including Kings Ridge, Legends, Summit Greens and Hartwood Reserve, require architectural-review approval before changing a front yard. We prepare the plan drawings and plant lists the committees ask for and use plants from the approved palettes.

Where to Find Us

From downtown take US-27 north past the Citrus Tower, then County Road 561. Stop by the nursery to see trees, palms and shrubs in person before your project starts.

Clermont Landscaping FAQs

What day can I water my lawn in Clermont?

Under the 2026 St. Johns River Water Management District shortage order, Clermont odd-numbered addresses water on Saturday, even-numbered addresses on Sunday, with no irrigation between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. The City of Clermont posts updates when the schedule changes, and we reprogram controllers on request.

How far is Highland Grove from Clermont?

Our nursery is on County Road 561 just north of downtown Clermont, about 3 miles from the Citrus Tower. Kings Ridge, Legends and the Hartwood Marsh Road communities are 10–15 minutes away.

How much does landscaping cost in Central Florida?

Most full-yard landscaping in the Clermont area runs $2 to $15 per square foot depending on how much is plants and mulch versus pavers, irrigation and structures. A typical 500 sq ft front-yard refresh in the Orlando market is roughly $2,300–$6,000; a complete new-construction package with sod, irrigation, trees and beds is more. We give free, itemized estimates so you can phase the work.
