Planting Services

Professional planting services help create beautiful landscapes designed to thrive. Selecting the right plants for your property requires understanding local climate, soil conditions, and how each species will mature. From trees and shrubs to perennials and groundcovers, Bruss Landscaping brings horticultural expertise to every installation so your plantings deliver lasting beauty.

Benefits of Professional Landscape Planting Services

Expert planting installation is beneficial for several reasons, such as:

  • Species selection for your site: Our horticultural team evaluates sunlight, drainage, soil quality, and space to recommend trees and shrubs that thrive in your conditions.
  • Long-term plant health: Correct planting depth, soil preparation, and spacing allow roots to establish properly, reducing stress and promoting vigorous growth.
  • Immediate maturity options: For projects requiring instant shade or privacy, we source mature specimens that make an immediate visual impact.
  • Seasonal performance: Strategic selection creates year-round interest through spring blooms, summer foliage, fall color, and winter structure.

Our Planting Services

Bruss Landscaping offers comprehensive planting solutions as part of our build services, backed by our 10-acre West Chicago nursery and relationships with premier regional growers. We install various plantings throughout DuPage County, including:

Trees and Shrubs

Our tree and shrub planting services in Wheaton, IL, include ornamental trees, shade trees, flowering shrubs, evergreen hedges, and specimen plantings. Spring-dug trees and shrubs receive drip irrigation throughout the season to help mitigate transplant stress.

Perennials and Annuals

We design and install perennial gardens that provide color and texture year after year, complemented by seasonal annuals for continuous blooms from spring through fall.

Groundcovers and Garden Beds

Our planting expertise extends to groundcovers that suppress weeds and erosion, along with complete garden bed installations featuring layered plantings.

Our foundation plantings complement your architecture while entrance plantings create welcoming focal points. You can also count on us for corner plantings that soften building edges and screen side yards and transition plantings that tie sections together with varying heights and textures.

We also offer landscape design services to help plan placement for impact and growth, and landscape maintenance solutions, such as tree trimming, to keep your plantings healthy.

Featured Case Study

Modern Pool Design

We designed for maximum function and sophisticated visual interest — horizontally with subtle changes in paver patterns and vertically with a pergola and stone walls. Attaching the pergola to the house frees up patio space, while incorporating one of the pergola’s columns in the buffet/grill gives an opportunity for additional lighting and conversation for the cook.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you match existing plantings already on my property?

Yes, we frequently coordinate new plantings with established landscapes. Our horticultural team identifies existing species and evaluates their condition, then recommends complementary plants that match in scale, texture, color, and seasonal interest.

Our horticultural team evaluates multiple site factors before recommending species. We assess factors such as the following to help every tree and shrub establish better:

  • Sun exposure patterns
  • Soil conditions and drainage
  • Available space for mature plant size
  • Proximity to structures
  • Your preferences
