Midland Avenue Trail | Glenwood Springs

The City of Glenwood Springs contracted with us to landscape and transform this steep hillside at 8th Street and Midland Avenue into a park and pedestrian trail. Large red boulders were used to construct retaining walls. Road base, steel edging and crusher fines were added to define the path. Topsoil was imported for the planting areas. Concrete footers were built for benches, signs and trash receptacles. An automatic drip irrigation system was installed to minimize excessive water needs. All the perennials and grasses were grown at our facility in New Castle.

Please know that our landscaping is prettier than we ever imagined. The dry creek is really something special, and the stonework and attention to detail has knocked our socks off!!! We are so proud to be the new homeowners on Patterson Drive. We couldn't have done it without you.

Lynn Dwyer and Dywer Greens was the key to our successful tree planting day at Carbondale Middle School and Crystal River Elementary. Because of Dwyer Green's wonderful assistance and expertise, these two schools now have 10 beautiful trees in areas that were desperately in need of shade and greenery. Thank you so much, from the students, teachers, and families of these two schools

We have been relying on Dwyer Greens for all our plant needs for the past seven years. The selection of annual and perennial plants is amazing. We have purchased many unique annuals and native perennials and all have thrived at our home in West Glenwood. Lynn also has heirloom vegetables and herbs available. Last summer we had tomatos from late July to October and still had enough to preserve 16 quarts of Brandywine Tomatoes from just 5 plants we purchased from Dwyer Greens

Lynn is a savvy business person, combined with a artist’s eye for creativity. Dwyer Greens landscaping projects are unbelievable! Lynn sets the bar very high. There is no substitute for locally-grown plants, trees and shrubs. When grown in our climate, they are accustomed to the harsh Western Colorado weather. One trip to the greenhouse at Dwyer Greens and you will see exactly what I mean. Lynn’s plants are hearty and full. There is a striking difference between Lynn’s plants and those from big box retailers - no comparison in fact

We have had them working for us over the last several years and they have always done a very thorough and consistent job. Lynn has always been amenable to however much or little I wanted done. She takes a lot of pride in her work, and I would never hesitate to recommend her.

I have had the good fortune and pleasure to know Lynn Dwyer for many years. Her landscaping projects and installations are absolutely exquisite. I have recommended Lynn and Dwyer Greens many times over the years and have always received positive comments back from everyone who hired her. She is also a strong supporter of local organizations such as the Library District and is involved in her community.

I have worked with Lynn Dwyer and her business Dwyer Greens & Flowers for many years. I buy all my annual plant materials from her and she has consulted with my garden design and plant/yard maintenance. Her staff have maintained my yard and fruit trees for many years. I have had great luck with her plant materials, they are of an exceptional quality. My place looks great all summer.

Wish I had come earlier before the crowds. Regardless, your selections are wonderful and your plants are always thriving. We especially thank the Asian woman who helped us. I'm sorry I don't know her name. But, thank you all for a great plant shopping experience that I look forward to every year!

Mary Alyce Doll
We engaged Lynn Dwyer to assist with the design and planting of our garden in Cordillera. Lynn and her team were exceptional, making excellent suggestions on plant/flower selections and overall design. Once we finalized the plan, within a week, Lynn's team had everything installed. Our garden looks amazing and we've received so much positive feedback from neighbors and visitors. We can strongly recommend Lynn for any garden design or implementation. She does excellent work and is extremely pleasant to work with.
