Landscape lighting on an oak-shaded Carrollwood, Florida yard

Why Do Carrollwood Yards Need Special Care?

Carrollwood started in the late 1950s when a developer turned orange groves near Lake Carroll into one of Tampa's first master-planned communities. Decades later, Original Carrollwood and Carrollwood Village are known for big lots shaded by mature oaks. That canopy is part of the charm, and it also means a lot of shade, leaf litter, and roots to plan around.

We design for established yards. At Citrus Landscape Solutions, our landscape design works with the old oaks instead of against them and keeps beds looking full under the canopy. Soft landscape lighting shows off the trees and the architecture after dark.

Common Carrollwood Landscaping Problems
We Solve

We handle the shade, roots, and older-yard upkeep that come with Carrollwood mature lots.

Grass Thinning Under Oaks

A heavy oak canopy starves turf of light. We keep sod in the sunnier areas and switch to shade-tolerant plants and design or mulch beds under the trees so the whole yard reads as intentional.

Roots And Worn Shade Spots

Surface roots and deep shade leave bare patches. We add artificial turf that stays green in low light and build hardscape patios and walkways that work around the root systems.

Such a great company to work with! I had an opportunity to talk to a few different landscapers to help with redesigning my backyard and front yard landscaping. Jesse and Joe went above and beyond to help my wife and I come to a landscape design we both agreed on.

Luis R.

Citrus Landscape Solutions did a great job on our landscaping, artificial turf, and fence for a pet relief area at a vet clinic recently. The team was responsive, reasonably priced, and the quality looked great.
