Participate in a collaborative process with a creative garden artist, as we integrate your garden into your home and life. I'll use my experience and vision to interpret your desires and transform your land into a garden environment for healthy living and inspiration.

Earth-friendly gardens with year-round interest include native plants to provide food and shelter for local wildlife, lawn alternatives, patio spaces that allow rain to percolate and rain gardens for clean rivers. Soil health (the foundation for an exuberant garden) is primary. Your garden will come alive as foliage colors and textures, with accents of bud, bloom, berry and seed change with the seasons.

From my clients ...

"I really enjoyed working with you and we love the back yard. Since the back is so great we would like to use your services again. I would like to start with a consultation for the front and some 'garden coaching' time for the plants in the back. I would also like to do the plant shopping again when it's time to get the plants.
