Estate-grade, reel-mowed lawns and Florida-Friendly landscapes for Tuscawilla and the Highlands — by a certified horticulturist, not a mowing route.
Michael Geist's Yard Works delivers full-service lawn care and landscaping across Winter Springs, FL 32708 — maintenance, sod, reel mowing, irrigation, top dressing, drainage, and landscape installation. As a certified horticulturist with 20+ years in Central Florida's Zone 9b climate, Michael reads each Winter Springs property as a complete system: soil, drainage, canopy, and cultivar together.

Every service performed with the agronomic precision Tuscawilla and Highlands properties deserve.
Weekly programs calibrated to your turfgrass and HOA standards — precision mowing, sharp-blade edging, shrub trimming, and full cleanup every visit.
CitraZoy, Empire, ProVista & Floratam — cut from the field and installed within 24 hours, with full site prep, grading, and a 30-day establishment plan.
Scissor-cut reel mowing for Zoysia and Bermuda at 0.5"–1.5" — a dense, upright, country-club finish no rotary mower can match.
Diagnostics, repair, zone calibration, MP Rotator conversions, and smart-controller programming for efficient, code-compliant watering.
Screened compost and sand blends to smooth uneven turf, build organic matter in sandy soil, and thicken the lawn naturally over time.
Custom Zone 9b landscape design — native and Florida-Friendly plantings, beds, mulch, lighting, and hardscape, installed in properly prepped soil.
Also serving Winter Springs: French drains & drainage, paver & hardscape installation, and palm tree trimming.
Tuscawilla's full-sun fairway-style lots and the shadier, oak-lined streets of the Highlands need completely different turf strategies — and the lots near Lake Jesup add drainage into the equation. A one-size mowing route can't deliver an estate result here.
Michael Geist is a certified horticulturist who evaluates soil, drainage, canopy, and cultivar together, then reel-mows fine-bladed Zoysia to a country-club finish. That's the difference between a lawn that's cut and a lawn that's cared for.
From the golf-course frontage and manicured streets of Tuscawilla to the established, oak-shaded lots of the Highlands, Winter Springs is a community where the lawn and landscape are part of the property's identity. The full-sun Tuscawilla lots reward a fine-bladed, reel-mowed Zoysia; the shadier Highlands lots call for St. Augustine held at the right height to compete for light.
Drainage matters here too — properties near Lake Jesup and the lower-lying corridors can hold water that erodes turf and drowns plantings. We read every Winter Springs property as a complete system: soil composition, sun, drainage gradient, and cultivar behavior together — then build a lawn and landscape that holds up through Central Florida's heat, humidity, and rainy season.
"Healthy lawns and landscapes do not exist without healthy living soil."
Every Winter Springs engagement starts with observation, never assumptions: we walk the property and evaluate turf, soil, canopy, drainage, and irrigation before recommending anything. Then the work is executed with calibrated equipment — reel blades sharpened to spec, sod installed within 24 hours of cutting — and backed by personal follow-through from Michael himself.
