    Gardening in Canadian Rockies   Living in the Canadian Rockies
      Why hoe, why hoe? It’s off to work ZeeLINX goes. Warm, sunny days are too precious and rare in the Canadian Rockies to spend toiling away in the garden. If your back must be sore, it might as well be from the sunburn you received while boating and not the weed that pulled back.
 
  GARDENING
 
 
  'Dead head' plants and clean up beds  
  Whoa – no. We don’t mean the plants enjoyed by Grateful Dead fans, no matter how lax Canadian laws have become. We mean last year’s shriveled old foliage that needs to be cleaned up so new life can prosper. Ya dig?  
 
  Weed garden  
  Bend and pull, bend and pull, bend and pull. . . weeding is back-breaking work and you haven’t even uncorked the wine bottle yet to pour yourself a pre-gardening spritzer. ZeeLINX will leave you to the more pressing matters while we make sure the view from your deck chair is of weed-free mountain beauty.  
 
  Water garden  
  Now you’ve created a yard worthy of House & Garden magazine, don’t leave it up to the neighbour’s dog to keep it watered while you’re on holidays. ZeeLINX can make sure your hydrangeas are hydrated even when you’re not in town. We can even turn the metaphorical hose on little Fluffy, if you like.  
 
  "Fertilize trees, shrubs & perennial plants"  
  Contrary to what some husbands would have you believe, running over dog poop with the mower to disperse it all over the lawn does not constitute fertilizing your yard. ZeeLINX will fertilize your lawn, properly. And if your husband’s still up to his old tricks, check out our Lawn Mowing service.  
 
  Landscaper Services  
  Opinions on landscaping can vary from having each blade of grass trimmed to perfection, seeing to it that the mountain foliage doesn’t overgrow your view of the Bow River or simply letting the pinecones on your bed-of-needles lawn lie the way Mother Nature dropped them. Whether you’re in the planning, trimming or pinecone-rearranging phase, we can lend a hoe.  
 
  Lawn Mowing  
  Maybe you’re one of those sick people who love the feeling of sweat dripping down your back, the muscles working in your legs and the smell of fresh-cut grass to the point you think lawn mowing is therapeutic. Or, maybe you’re one of those people with a ride-on mower who dons their cowboy hat and pretends to be in a rodeo. If you’re neither of these people, pour yourself a glass of lemonade and enjoy the fresh-cut grass smell from your patio. ZeeLINX will borrow that cowboy hat, thank you very much.  
 
  Leaf Clean-up  
  There’s nothing like raking those fallen leaves into big, autumn-like piles around your yard. And then raking them the next day. And the next day. . . Hey! Let the neighbours’ kids go play on the jungle gym. ZeeLINX will get your leaves raked and removed all in one go, so the only one having fun at your expense is you.  
 
  Plant annuals  
  The thing about annuals is they have to be planted, well, annually. If the yearly grunt-fest is getting you down, ZeeLINX will do the bending while you take time to smell the petunias.  
 
  Spring lawn booster application  
  If your grass is having trouble waking up in the spring, think of this service as a triple shot of espresso for your lawn. ZeeLINX will give your lawn a boost, while you pour yourself a stiff coffee and watch the grass grow.  
 
  Supervise progress of new plantings  
  Once those little buds get planted, it’s time for them to get to work. No slacking in the Bow Valley, summer is just too short. ZeeLINX will be there to crack the whip on your little blossoms until they stand at attention and open fire on pests and weeds all on their own.  
 
  Tree & Shrub Pruning  
  “Bring me a shrubbery!” No one got the joke and now your yard is being overtaken by shrubs. If your friends’ lack of British humour is blocking your view, just say, “bring me a ZeeLINX!” and we’ll have the problem pruned back in no time.  
 
  Irrigation Systems Maintenance  
  Everyone loves those sunny summer days, sipping lemon-aide on the patio. When it’s warm and dry, your lawn also needs refreshments. To make sure your irrigation system is up to par, give us a call.
