About Us
Experienced and Creative Garden Designers
We specialize in creating garden experiences that fit the needs of your yard. We are firm believers in putting the right plants in the right place to create a lasting landscape made up of shrubs, seasonal plantings, perennials, and eye-catching unique plants. We design and maintain the gardens we work on, ensuring the a high-quality garden year-round.
Fine Gardening vs Landscaping
How is fine gardening different than landscaping? As fine gardeners we hone in on details of a garden. Proper pruning, shaping, and cutbacks are important for a well-maintained and functional garden. We pay attention to the types of plants and prune during the proper season, deadhead when the timing is right and leave plants untouched when they're at their peak.
Fine Gardens for your style
While of course we have our favorite plants, we want your garden to be a place where YOU feel at home. Our designs take into account how you use your space, any preferred or disliked plants, and hardy plantings that work for your personal tastes and location.
