BEE LAWN SPECIAL | Contact us TODAY about BEE FRIENDLY LAWNS
St. Louis Park is one of the Twin Cities’ most established first-ring suburbs, and its landscapes reflect that history. Homes in neighborhoods like Minikahda Vista, Bronx Park, and Sorensen have mature tree canopies, smaller lot footprints, and soils that have been compacted and regraded over decades of development. Those conditions make drainage slower, lawn establishment harder, and hardscape installation more demanding if the base work is not approached carefully from the start.
Minnehaha Falls Landscaping provides landscaping services in St. Louis Park, MN, designed specifically for those constraints. As a Twin Cities landscaping company with roots going back to 1957, we know that smaller lots and older urban soils require more careful planning, not just standard installation. Our approach combines practical design, soil-focused practices, and durable construction methods that account for root competition, slow drainage, and the wear Minnesota winters put on every outdoor surface.

We are long time customers of Minnehaha Falls Landscaping. As I sit on my porch watching the monarch butterflies enjoying my pollinator garden I appreciate the service we’ve had over the years. It started with their snow removal service as we decided doing it ourselves was too much. Next up were the pollinator gardens and replacing our lawn with no mow bee gardens. This year we added garden maintenance to the mix so gardening is not a chore but is enjoyable. We recommend them very highly.
Minnehaha Falls landscaping did an amazing job transforming our yard. They added beautiful plantings that made the yard feel fresh and new. The lighting they installed really makes everything shine at night. They were professional, creative and very easy to work with. We have had so many compliments from our neighbors! I highly recommend to anyone!

We provide full-service landscaping in St. Louis Park, including landscape design, patios and hardscapes, lawn care, gardening services, rain gardens, and ongoing maintenance, all tailored to local soil conditions and your property's specific needs.
St. Louis Park's mature tree canopy and decades of urban development have left many properties with compacted, root-dense soils that drain slowly and make planting more complex. Combined with Minnesota's freeze-thaw cycles, these conditions directly affect how we approach hardscape bases, drainage, and plant selection. We evaluate all of these factors on-site before recommending an approach.
