The different really is in the details. 🌿

Clean lines, crisp edges and consistent care - and a crew that takes pride in leaving every property looking its best.
It’s the little things that make a big difference.

Summer isn’t done yet, and neither is your irrigation system.

With temperatures climbing back into the 90's this week, your lawn may still need some help staying hydrated.

Even as we head toward fall, warm weather can put stress on Michigan turf. Keep an eye on rainfall, make sure your irrigation system is providing even coverage and don’t assume it’s time to shut things down just because September is here.
💧 Check for dry spots
💧 Watch for broken or misaligned heads
💧 Adjust watering based on rainfall
💧 Make sure your system is actually reaching the areas that need it

A properly functioning irrigation system helps your landscape get the water it needs without wasting it.
Need an irrigation adjustment or repair? Organic Matters can help.

🌱 Can you spot crabgrass?
Crabgrass is one of the most common summer lawn w**ds in Michigan, and it often shows up in thin or stressed areas of the lawn. It grows quickly, competes with healthy turf for water and nutrients, and can spread rapidly if left unchecked.

While it may blend in at first glance, crabgrass has a wider leaf blade and grows in clumps, making it stand out from the surrounding turf.

A thick, healthy lawn is the best defense against unwanted w**ds. Proper fertilization, mowing, and seasonal w**d control all play an important role in keeping your lawn looking its best.

Have questions about what's growing in your yard? Our team is happy to help identify the problem and recommend the right solution.

🌸 Seasonal color does more than brighten a space - it creates a lasting first impression.

From welcoming entrances to inviting patios, thoughtfully designed planters add color, texture, and life to commercial properties all season long.

At Organic Matters, we believe great landscaping is about more than mowing lawns. It’s about creating outdoor spaces that feel welcoming, professional, and memorable.

Whether it’s seasonal color, landscape maintenance, or complete property care, we’re passionate about helping every landscape look its best.

🌿 Because the little details often make the biggest impact.

🌳 If you've ever wondered why your new tree arrives wrapped in burlap, you're not alone.

That burlap isn't just for transportation—it's helping protect the tree's most important asset: the root ball.
The root ball contains the majority of the tree's fine roots, which are responsible for taking up water and nutrients. Keeping it intact during transport and installation helps reduce transplant shock and gives the tree the best chance to establish in its new home.

At Organic Matters, we take care to properly handle and install every tree because healthy roots are the foundation for healthy growth.

🌿 Strong roots today mean a stronger, healthier tree for years to come.

🌿 Plant Spotlight: Hydrangeas 🌿

Hydrangeas are one of the most beloved shrubs in Michigan landscapes—and it's easy to see why. Their stunning blooms provide months of color, making them a favorite for gardens, foundation plantings, and curb appeal.

Here are a few quick facts about this landscape favorite:
💧 They thrive with consistent moisture.
☀️ Most varieties prefer morning sun and afternoon shade.
🌸 Their beautiful blooms brighten landscapes all summer long.
🐝 They also help create a pollinator-friendly garden.

Whether you're adding new hydrangeas or caring for established plants, proper watering and seasonal maintenance will keep them looking their best.

🌿 Do you have hydrangeas in your landscape? What color are your favorites—blue, pink, white, or purple?

Love the look of boxwoods? Consider inkberry instead. 🌿

With Box Tree Moth now established in parts of Michigan, many homeowners are looking for shrubs that offer a similar clean, evergreen look with fewer concerns.

Inkberry Holly is a great alternative because it:
✔️ Stays green year-round
✔️ Has a naturally dense, rounded habit
✔️ Tolerates pruning well
✔️ Isn't a host plant for Box Tree Moth

While boxwoods are still beautiful plants and can absolutely be protected with a proactive treatment program, inkberry is another great option for new landscapes or replacement plantings.

Not sure which shrub is right for your property? We'd be happy to help you choose the best fit for your landscape.
📞 Contact Organic Matters to learn more about our Box Tree Moth protection program and plant recommendations.

🌸 Some of the most beautiful gardens are also the busiest.

Purple coneflowers aren't just known for their vibrant blooms—they're also a favorite of bees, butterflies, and other important pollinators.

These hardy perennials provide weeks of colorful blooms throughout the summer while helping support a healthy, thriving landscape. It's a simple reminder that the right plant choices can create outdoor spaces that are both beautiful and beneficial.

At Organic Matters, we love incorporating plants that add lasting color, seasonal interest, and value to the landscapes we care for.

🌿 Beautiful blooms. Happy pollinators.
