Front Yard Garden

Landscaping / Edging / Mulching Around Trees



The tree in our front yard has been in need of some landscaping for a while so in this video I show you how to landscape, edge, and mulch around trees. This landscaping will add a clean look to your lawn and also add some color to your landscape. We cut and edge around the tree, planted various plants, put down newspaper as a weed barrier, and placed mulch on that to complete the look.

  1. YES LOOKS GREAT! I have some new ideas for my trees. We just purchased a house and I'm super excited to do my yard. Thanks so much for sharing

  2. I have a sugar maple that's triangular. I've thought about building landscaping timbers around it making a hexagon. Then filling the wood with mulch. This tree is like 60 years old. I wouldn't do the flowers. If I fill the hex up level to the top, the base of the tree would be even without building up a hill. Mulch near the base can choke a tree, but if it's 40 foot tall, I doubt you'll choke it.

  3. How do I get rid of the weeds and crap growing before I do all the other stuff. This shit ain't for me, geez

  4. Hi Ryan, great videos. I follow all of your videos and was getting ready to mulch around some trees and landscape and was planning on just doing a natural edge but I do really like the idea of having a physical barrier from the mulch to grass so my grass can not easily spread into the mulch and will keep a tight look for much longer.

    Given that this video is a few years old I am curious if you have any follow-up info about how this performed and if you would recommend doing it with the border or just going natural edge.

    Thank you!
    P.S. Congrats on all of the success in building and expanding this channel. LCN can kick rocks, you're the guy!

  5. You’re so cute. Love your approach and how you did such a strong job. I’m inspired! Well, done Ryan. 👏

  6. I used old compost bags ‘usually black inside’ lay them out and stand back and see what it looks like.

  7. Hello, what kind of lawn mower was that you were using in the video. By the way your lawn looks amazing

  8. How do you keep grass clippings from going into the mulch. Thank you
