Landscaping in Woodlands
Landscaping in Woodlands, Pickering
Woodlands sits between Petticoat Creek on the west and the Amberlea watercourse on the east, with the CN tracks to the north and the 401 to the south. Rosebank Road and Whites Road take you from Sheppard Avenue down to Kingston Road. The first houses went up on Old Forest Road, Highbush Trail and Rosebank Road between 1900 and 1940, and subdivisions came in east of Rosebank in the 1980s. Most homes are detached on large lots, and the South Petticoat ravine along the west side is thick with trees. The George Ashe Library and Community Centre is on Kingston Road.

The area is known for its peaceful atmosphere and well-tended yards that reflect the pride of ownership in the community. Homeowners here often focus on enhancing their curb appeal and creating functional backyard spaces for family use.
Around Woodlands
What we see in Woodlands yards
Older lots on Old Forest Road and Highbush Trail often have mature trees, and the lawns under them stay thin. Raise the mowing height, overseed with a shade mix in early fall, and put mulch rings around the trunks instead of fighting for grass right up to the bark.
Interlocking stone walkways and driveway borders
Garden bed redesign and perennial planting
Shade-lawn overseeding and mulch rings
New lawn installation and sodding

Overseed the lawn to fill in any thin spots caused by winter snow piles.
Water garden beds deeply in the early morning to prevent fungal diseases.
