Selecting a Landscape Designer

A landscape professional is your partner in making your home or commercial landscape beautiful, environmentally responsible, efficient, and enjoyable. Landscape professionals provide all types of services from design only through installation and maintenance.



Planning & Designing a Garden



Your home and landscape are as individual as your personality. The pictures in a book may look great, but if they don’t fit your lifestyle, and your environment, they won’t make a good basis for planning your g...arden. As a landscape designer; we design & landscape by selecting the right plants that will help you have a beautiful and successful garden.






Benefits of Landscaping


Investment in your property always provides you with pleasure, but some investments actually pay you back by enabling you to recover your cost when you sell the home. an article in Money magazine listed these recovery values for usual home renovation projects:


Landscaping recovery value: 100-200%


Kitchen recovery value: 75-125%


Bathroom recovery value: 80-125%


Deck or patio recovery value: 40-70%


Swimming pool recovery value: 20-50%


Why choose a landscape professional?






1.Home value. Landscaping greatly impacts home value. A bare root twig planted near a window can grow into a 50-foot tree. A professional plan sites plants correctly so they won't become threats or obstructions to the home.






2.Peace of mind. Hiring a design professional before ripping up your lawn will save you headaches, not to mention dollars. Many landscape professionals consider design a value-added service.






3.Know-how. Mass marketed plants can be non-hardy for your area. You may not be aware of varieties susceptible to pest infestations. A professional helps you avoid expensive mistakes. Landscape designers keep up with the newest varieties, offering you a whole spectrum of plant material.






4.Long-term maintenance. A professional will ask how much time you want to devote to maintaining your landscape and will design accordingly. Garden ideas gleaned form magazines may be impractical for your lifestyle. The orchard or rose arbor you want may require regular chemical treatments to survive.






5.Investment in the future. Wise homeowners choose investments based on their return. The unified aesthetic appearance of a professionally designed landscape is intrinsic to its value. If well-executed and attuned to its surroundings, landscaping has a recovery value of 100 to 200 percent, according to MONEY Magazine.

June is time to finish planting your gardens...

June is a great time to finish planting gardens, containers and hanging baskets and then spend time relaxing on your deck, porch or patio enjoying the beautiful colors. June is Perennial Month, and we experience the greatest concentration of perennial bloom during this month. It is an ideal time for outdoor entertaining and showing off your yard and garden when plants are fresh and growing at their best. The long days allow time for both gardening and socializing.
