Professional Landscaping in Melbourne, Florida

Sanford's historic charm and Lake Monroe waterfront deserve landscaping that honors both. Known as "Celery City" for its agricultural heritage, Sanford features mature oak canopies, brick-paved streets in the Historic District, and properties ranging from century-old homes to modern developments near the SunRail corridor. Our team understands the unique needs of Seminole County landscapes, from the sandy soils that drain quickly to the Spanish moss-draped oaks that define this community's character.

Whether you own a lakefront property with views of Lake Monroe, a historic home near downtown, or a newer build in communities like Sanora or Wyndham Lakes, we design and install landscapes that thrive in Central Florida's subtropical climate. Our expertise with local water restrictions, soil amendments, and drought-tolerant plantings ensures your outdoor space looks beautiful year-round while respecting this environmentally conscious community.

Common Problems
We Solve

We help homeowners fix the most common landscaping challenges, from dying lawns and drainage issues to outdated designs and inefficient irrigation systems.

Sandy Soil Drainage Issues

Sanford's sandy soils absorb water quickly but lose moisture just as fast, stressing lawns and plantings during dry spells. Unlike clay-rich soils that retain water, the sandy composition common throughout Seminole County means nutrients wash through before plants can absorb them. We address this by amending soil with organic compost, installing proper irrigation zones, and selecting plants with root systems adapted to these conditions. Strategic mulching and biochar applications help retain moisture where it matters most.

Mature Oak Tree Landscaping

The magnificent live oaks throughout Sanford's historic neighborhoods create deep shade that challenges traditional St. Augustine lawns. Rather than fighting nature with excessive watering and fertilizer, we design shade-tolerant groundcovers, fern gardens, and native plantings that thrive under oak canopies. Our approach protects tree root systems while creating beautiful understory landscapes that complement Sanford's historic character.

Highly recommend Citrus Landscape!! From the moment we reached out for a quote to the moment they completed the work, everything was perfect. Jesse and his team communicated every step of the way and the turn around time was above and beyond my expectations. The crews I had contact with was professional and polite and respected our property 100%. Our little space looks amazing and I hope to use them again for future projects.

From first contact, speaking with Mel to setup a consultation with Mike, to completion of project, was a complete pleasure and wonderful experience. They were professional and personable, not treating us like "just another customer.". I cannot recommend them highly enough. Our backyard was transformed into a wonderful area, where it had been a messy swamp. Go for it! Have them come out and see what they can do for you!!!!

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. Quotes were provided questions I had or follow ups not so much. Jesse and Joe went above and beyond to help my wife and I come to a landscape design we both agreed on, after a few tries we agreed on a design we both liked. We appreciate the follow ups from start to finish. After our HOA approved they were ready to go and did a 3 day job in two. The crew were respectful and did such a fantastic job and cleaning up nicely. We love our new curb appeal and backyard updates. Highly recommend working with this company! Edit we added lighting and it looks amazing!

The team was responsive, reasonably priced, and the quality looked great. If you need help with your landscaping needs, you found the right company with Citrus Landscape Solutions!

Jesse Dewey and team exceeded our expectations in the design and installation of the landscape for our new home. Ours is a complicated property with a pond, terracing, steep slopes, pathways, hidden features, etc. While a designer laid out the initial plan, more than half of it had to be revised once the installation was underway and we discovered things that worked and didn’t. That’s where Citrus really stepped up with additional design ideas and solutions for the many surprises that the terrain threw at us. The install crew also exceeded expectations. Their commitment to getting the landscape in place during the heat of summer impressed. Each of the guys was genuinely happy to be on the project, and it showed in the teamwork. The scope of the project made this a months-long install and led to a significant punch list. There was never a question of if they could do it or a request to tack on additional fees. What was promised was delivered and more. The finished project is one we’re incredibly proud of, and it’s been a “wow” for us, friends and neighbors.

Great experience with Citrus landscape solutions. As a licensed architect in Florida, I was impressed with their customer service and attention to detail by the work crew and their creativity developing workable solutions to unique situations. Highly recommend Josh and Citrus for any type of landscape/Hardscape work.
