Planting & Removal Services

In Athens, Georgia, maintaining a thriving outdoor space is about more than just adding new plants. Overgrown shrubs, invasive species, and declining trees can undermine curb appeal and threaten the health of your property. At Genesis Landscaping – Greenworks & Design, our planting and removal services are grounded in careful stewardship and technical horticulture. Whether you need to install deer-resistant shrubs or remove unwanted growth that is choking out your beds, we bring region-specific knowledge to every project. Our team understands the unique demands of North Georgia’s clay soil, unpredictable rainfall, and wildlife pressures. From property owners in Five Points seeking a polished look to families in Watkinsville wanting safer, cleaner outdoor spaces, we design each service to fit the property’s needs and local conditions. Every step is guided by a commitment to honest work and long-term property health.

Selecting the right plants and knowing when to remove existing vegetation is not a guessing game. With Genesis Landscaping – Greenworks & Design, you get the rare combination of a Georgia Certified Landscape Professional and a UGA business graduate at the helm. Our approach is rooted in integrity, transparency, and deep local expertise. We never recommend plants that will struggle in Athens’ heavy clay or wither during the summer heat. Instead, we guide you toward species that will thrive, including native and deer-resistant options whenever possible. Removal is performed with care to protect nearby healthy plants and prevent soil disruption. We avoid the 'one-and-done' mentality, focusing instead on solutions that improve your property’s value and resilience, whether clearing overgrowth in Normaltown or installing new beds in Shoal Creek. Our honesty in materials and straightforward pricing ensure you receive exactly what you pay for, every time.

Every project begins with a thorough assessment of your property’s conditions. We evaluate soil health, drainage, sun exposure, and existing plant material. For new plantings, we select species based on your aesthetic goals and the realities of Athens’ climate, ensuring each plant has the best chance to thrive. For removal, we target unwanted or unhealthy plants, from small saplings to invasive groundcover, using methods that minimize disturbance and protect your remaining landscape. Our process includes responsible debris disposal and, when needed, soil remediation to prepare for future planting. We communicate clearly about timing, material needs, and anticipated outcomes, so you always know what to expect. After installation or removal, we provide clients with care instructions and ongoing support. Our goal is to ensure each yard in the Athens area becomes a lasting asset, not a recurring headache.
