Tripp Landscaping has strived to provide top-notch landscaping service to the Springfield area. Its success is reflected in the many satisfied clients the business has seen over the years. Like most businesses, Tripp Landscaping had humble beginnings. It started as a small operation owner/founder Mark Tripp began at his Springfield home in 1978. He had only a handfull of employees. It wasn't long before the business grew too big for Mark's home, so he set up shop at his first retail location on 6th Street, Springfield. As the company grew and evolved, Mark decided in 1992 to move the business to its current location on Woodside Rd., in Springfield. Tripp Landscaping currently includes a nursery stocked with high-quality trees, shrubs, and perennials, in addition to an office where design creation and presentation take place.
"Had a gal come from Tripp for measurements, talking about my project etc. She spent time with me and seemed very knowledgable, took my ideas and did the measurements etc. She said she would go back into the office and call me once she had a plan and some pricing information. This was in June of 2017. I have called a few times and left voicemails. No return calls. Someone else will my cash."

Buying plants from a nursery is one thing, but ensuring that they are properly planted is another. While you might not need to hire a landscaper for every plant that you buy from a nursery, it’s a great idea to have their expertise and experience to plant larger items, like burlapped trees or specialty plants like rose bushes. Even better, before making a trip to a nursery to buy new plants, consult a local landscaper to test your soil for pH levels, soil texture, and phosphorus and potassium levels to help determine the best plants for your area.
Garden nurseries offer many plants to make your home and garden flourish. In-container plants are one option, including perennials, annuals, and small shrubs or trees. Large hedge plants and roses are called bare-root plants, meaning they have not been potted. Finally, you will see some burlapped plants, typically larger trees and shrubs with burlap wrapping around the bottom.
The best time to plant is between spring and autumn. Springtime weather is typically mild and is when nurseries start to bloom. When the summer weather arrives and it’s hot out, it’s best to avoid planting bare-root plants, but you can still plant many in-container varieties. The first sign of fall is another great opportunity to plant biennials if you live in southern states, or a lovely vegetable garden up north.
If you’re hiring a landscaper to plant the garden of your dreams, you do not need to provide them with plants that you bought yourself from a nursery. While you certainly can provide your landscaper with plants, keep in mind that some nurseries provide discounts to landscaping companies, therefore potentially lowering your materials cost. Beyond the cost of the plants themselves, you need to have additional materials like topsoil and mulch for the project. Most likely, your landscaper can get a discount on these materials as well, so it’s worth speaking with them before making any large purchases.
While there are over 400,000 different flowering plants worldwide, there are five main types of flowers. These flower types are based on their lifecycles, giving each type a unique personality. These types are:
Annuals, which complete their entire life cycle within a single growing season.
Perennials, which the tops die off in the winter but regrow in spring.
Biennials, which complete their entire life cycle within two years.
Hybrids, which exhibit either annual or perennial behaviors depending on location
Flowering shrubs, which are small to medium-sized perennial woody plants, such as shrubs or evergreens.
