Celebrating 70 Years
of Impullitti Landscaping

The landscaping roots run deep in the Impullitti family. In 1917, Wayne’s maternal grandfather opened and ran a successful landscaping company, Leo Lucarelli Landscaping, which had locations in Beachwood, University Heights, and Solon.

1952

Wayne’s father Clifford Impullitti, Sr. had apprenticed with Leo since 1947 and learned the skills of the trade before establishing his own company in 1952, Impullitti Landscaping and Sons. The company operated out of the Impullitti home in Highland Heights that he shared with his wife and bookkeeper Elvira until 1990. Cliff was committed to enhancing the professionalism of the landscaping industry and was one of the first board members of the Ohio Landscape Association

The company was growing and moved for the first time to a 10,000 sq ft. facility on Beidler Road in Willoughby.
