Landscaping in Rosebank
Landscaping in Rosebank, Pickering
Rosebank is the south-west corner of Pickering, boxed in by the Rouge River on the west, Petticoat Creek on the east, the 401 up top and Lake Ontario below. There's no road across the Rouge into Toronto from here, so most people come and go over the Rougemount Drive overpass or out to Whites Road. It started as cottages between 1900 and 1940 and filled in with subdivisions from the 1970s, so old cottage lots sit next to newer detached homes, mostly on big lots. Yards near the valley edges often slope or back onto trees.
About Rosebank
Rosebank is a lakeside Pickering neighbourhood between the Rouge River and Petticoat Creek, with older cottage-era homes next to newer custom builds. It's known for its trees, the Rouge valley on one side and Petticoat Creek Conservation Area on the other, and large lots with a good amount of privacy. Landscaping here usually means working with the slopes and trees rather than clearing them.
Around Rosebank
What we see in Rosebank yards
If your yard runs down toward the Rouge valley or Petticoat Creek, don't strip the slope bare during a cleanup. Leave the roots in the bank, cut back only what's dead or invasive, and send roof water somewhere other than the edge. On the flat cottage-era lots the job is usually the opposite: old beds and hedges that need a hard cutback.
Custom natural stone patios and outdoor living areas
Native species reforestation and garden design
