Marvelous Variety
Most of our plants are sourced from trusted growers. To supplement, we propagate less popular varieties on our own at our small plant nursery. We prioritize use of native plants whenever possible, but we also recognize that diverse garden compositions composed of some novel plants often promote extended appeal and longevity.Wildlife Minded

Minimal Maintenance
Once rooted, our gardens are designed to do well by themselves, with little to zero mulching or watering required. However, minor adjustments may be necessary at certain times to preserve design details and ensure ongoing plant health. Our internal staff will be available to offer support or advice at these times.What Sets Us Apart
Other local landscape designers may be able to offer gardens which look nice, but we go beyond just aesthetics. We pull from multiple decades of experience and in-depth horticultural education to curate gardens which are well poised to thrive in harmony, with little maintenance needed as the seasons change. Our installers place plants with intention, paying mind to how they will evolve and highlight specific other design centerpieces on your site. We feel that collaboration is vital, and we will work in conjunction with you to fulfill your desires for your unique garden.
