Landscape Design & Installation
Landscape design is a step-by-step procedure that demands patience, skill and creativity. We start with how you actually use your yard, then combine form with function and beauty with utility.
Landscape Design & Installation from Outfront Landscaping — available across Palm Beach and northern Broward County for both residential and commercial properties. Free estimates, no contract required on maintenance. Call or text (561) 877-9154.
A well designed landscape is both aesthetically pleasing and functional. Whether you want a front elevation that finally matches the house or a back yard built for relaxing and entertaining, the process begins the same way: understanding what you need, what you want, and what the site will actually support.
That last part matters more in South Florida than most people expect. Sandy soil, a high water table in the eastern half of the county, alkaline fill in newer developments, salt exposure near the Intracoastal and full-sun exposures that punish the wrong plant choice all shape what belongs where. We design around those conditions instead of fighting them.
What you get with landscaping
- Custom Landscape DesignA plan for the whole property — massing, sight lines, focal points and how it reads from the street at 25 mph and from the front door at three feet.
- Plant & Palm InstallationRoyal, foxtail, coconut, areca, Christmas and sabal palms, plus the shrubs and ground covers that hold up in Zone 10b heat and rain.
- Flower Bed DesignNew beds cut, shaped, edged, amended and planted, with clean lines that stay clean.
- Seasonal ColorRotating annual color at entries, monument signs and focal beds so the property never looks static.
- Hedge & Privacy ScreeningClusia, podocarpus, areca and ficus screens sized and spaced for the privacy you want at the height you can maintain.
- Full Yard MakeoversComplete tear-out and rebuild — old overgrown foundation plantings out, a designed landscape in, finished with fresh sod and mulch.
How a landscape project runs
Site walk and conversation
We survey existing conditions, check drainage and sun exposure, and talk through what is not working and what you want the space to do.
Design and budget
A plant plan and a real number. We can fix one problem area or do a complete makeover while staying inside your budget.
Prep and install
Removals, bed shaping, soil amendment, then plants set, staked where needed and watered in.
Mulch and finish
Beds mulched, edges cut, site cleaned, and a written watering schedule for the establishment period.
Landscaping FAQs
What plants actually thrive in Palm Beach County?
We are in USDA Zone 10b, so the palette is wide but specific. Reliable performers include clusia, cocoplum, green island ficus, dwarf firebush, croton, ixora, podocarpus, silver buttonwood and muhly grass, alongside royal, foxtail, coconut, Christmas and sabal palms. Salt tolerance becomes the deciding factor east of the Intracoastal.
How long before a new landscape fills in?
Most shrub and ground cover installations read as established within six to twelve months. Hedges planted for privacy typically need a full year or two to knit together, which is why spacing at install is worth getting right the first time.
Can you work with my HOA architectural committee?
Yes. Many Palm Beach County communities require plan approval before anything goes in the ground. We routinely provide plant lists and layouts in the format ARC boards ask for.
Do you handle commercial properties?
We do — executive office buildings, multifamily and HOA communities, retail centers and corporate offices. Image is critical to the value of a commercial property, and the landscape is the first thing anyone sees.
When is the best time to plant in South Florida?
You can plant almost year-round here, but the sweet spot is the start of the rainy season in late spring, when natural rainfall does most of the establishment watering for you. Planting in the dry months works fine as long as irrigation is dialed in.

Seasonal Color & Annual Flowers
Rotating annual color at the entry, the monument sign or the focal bed — the smallest investment that changes how a whole property reads.

Hardscapes, Pavers & Patios
In the art of landscaping, hardscape means the built environment: the patios, walls, walkways and fire features that give a yard its shape when the plants are still filling in.

Tree, Palm & Shrub Trimming
Shaping and pruning that promotes healthy growth instead of just making things smaller — plus the pre-season palm and tree work that matters when a storm is in the forecast.
