Landscape design, construction and maintenance for Worthington homes.
Worthington, Ohio
Peabody Landscape Group does landscape design, construction and maintenance in Worthington, Ohio, from our yard on Dublin Road in Columbus. We have been in business since 1982. Since 2021 our crews have put more than 5,000 hours into Worthington properties: design and build work for homes, weekly care for homes we look after year after year, and some commercial grounds work. We design and build in-house, so the people who plan your project are the people who build it.
Checked against city sources in October 2026. Rules change, so confirm with the city before you build.
Services
The first visit is a walk of the lot to sort out which trees, plants and stonework stay. A Worthington plan can cover a full backyard renovation or a few changes, drawn and built by the same company.
The Japanese-inspired garden in the photo, with a wood garden building, an arched bridge, stonework and planting, is one of our Worthington projects.
Our hardscaping covers paver patios, walks and steps sized for how you use the yard, set at the right grade so water runs away from the house. See what patios cost here.
The wooded backyard in the photo at the top of this page, with a raised deck, a covered pavilion and a stone terrace, is another Worthington project.
In Worthington we design and install low-voltage lighting for paths, steps, patios, seating areas and trees. Fixtures and wire runs are planned with the rest of the yard, so the garden is opened up once.
Lights can go in with a new Worthington patio, or be added where the garden is already built.
Where a Worthington back yard is wooded, a natural stone fireplace fits in, and at the patio edge it also blocks wind or an unwanted view.
Since the guidelines put patios at the rear of the house, the fireplace is planned with the patio layout. Stone and fuel choices are on the fire pits and fireplaces page.
Most of our Worthington work for homes is weekly lawn care. More than 10 Worthington properties have had us on maintenance. Sprinkler system installation and service is also available.
We have also done commercial grounds maintenance, snow plowing and salting, and installation work in Worthington. Commercial visits and storms in Worthington work from a written scope for each property.
Worthington does not allow fences in front yards, and no fence can be over 6 ft. The city's design guidelines put decks and patios at the rear of the house.
Old Worthington (North, South, Morning and Evening Streets), High Street and Granville Road are in the Architectural Review District. Trees in the tree lawn are city property, and planting one needs permission from the Director of Service and Engineering.
We started in 1982. Some Worthington homes have had us back for three seasons or more.
The people who draw a Worthington plan are the people who build it. After a build, the same company can keep the new planting watered and the beds kept through the first seasons.
In Worthington our work includes Old Worthington, Worthingway, Worthington Estates, Broadmeadows and Olentangy Hills. We also work in Medick Estates, Potter's Creek, Simsbury Place and the Linworth area.
If your street is in or near one of these, we can start with a visit.
