Pearl sits just across the Pearl River from Jackson and has grown into Rankin County’s largest city, with established neighborhoods, busy commercial areas and plenty of homeowners ready to upgrade their yards. Madison Planting & Design Group provides landscaping in Pearl, MS: landscape design and installation for homes, and professional grounds care for business properties. Our design work is led by a licensed landscape architect, and our own crews do the work.
A young city with a lot going on
Pearl incorporated in 1969. Residents picked the name “Pearl” over “Riverview” and “Brightsville.” Today it’s home to about 27,000 people and to some of the metro’s best-known destinations. Trustmark Park, the ballpark where the Mississippi Mud Monsters began playing in 2025, and the Outlets of Mississippi are both here. So are the Rankin Campus of Hinds Community College and the West Rankin Industrial Park. That mix of homes, shops and businesses means a wide range of landscape needs, from a small backyard patio to a commercial entrance that has to look good every day.
Residential landscaping in Pearl
A typical suburban lot is ideal for a backyard that works as an outdoor room. We design and build:
- Natural stone patios, walkways and steps, plus retaining walls, seating walls and pavers
- Outdoor fireplaces, pergolas and fountains
- Pool landscaping and stone pool decks
- New planting beds, trees, shrubs, seasonal color and pine straw
- Irrigation installation and repair, drainage solutions and landscape lighting
A front-yard refresh can make a big difference, too. Replacing overgrown shrubs with a clean, layered planting and adding a stone walk to the door can transform curb appeal in a single project.
Commercial landscaping in Pearl
For business owners and property managers, we offer commercial landscaping that includes design, installation and ongoing grounds management:
- Weekly mowing, edging, trimming and blowing
- Fertilization, weed control, and insect and disease control
- Pruning and seasonal color at entrances and signs
- Monthly irrigation and landscape lighting checks
- Monthly inspections and written reports outlining work completed and potential problems

Landscapes that are easy to live with
Most homeowners want a yard that looks great without eating every weekend. We design with upkeep in mind: clean bed lines that are easy to edge, shrubs chosen so they won’t outgrow their space, and seasonal color concentrated where it has the most impact.
Built for Rankin County conditions
Pearl shares the Jackson metro’s challenges: heavy clay soils that swell and shrink with moisture, more than 50 inches of rain in a typical year and long, humid summers. We plan for them from the start:
- Hardscape that holds up: stone patios and walks built on a properly prepared, compacted base
- Water management: grading that moves water away from the house and keeps patios from ponding
- Right plant, right place: choices suited to USDA zone 8b, full Mississippi sun or shade, and heavy soils
- Efficient irrigation: zones matched to plant needs, with deep, infrequent watering
- Seasonal timing: fall planting for trees and shrubs whenever possible
