GARDEN DESIGN:

We believe your property should be your own private park, a tranquil sanctuary where you can unwind from life’s hectic pace. To achieve this goal, we work collaboratively with clients to develop designs that are not only innovative, but also aesthetic and functional. We create beautiful and functional gardens specifically suited to each client’s individual needs.

Every project is personalized to your needs and your property. Starting with your personal preferences in mind, we create a conceptual drawing complete to scale with a list of plants as well as bloom times and colors. A detailed plant key complete with photographs of each plant and planting notes is also included along with any other informational sheets that may be relevant.

Once the overall design has been agreed upon, we will then install all aspects of your garden using professional planting techniques and plant care expertise. After all the perennials are in the ground, we will add any smaller garden elements such as a bench or a birdbath. We then spread mulch to ensure that the plants receive and retain enough water and are well protected from the cold, and minimize weeds.

We strive for a blend of trees, shrubs, perennials, and annuals that will provide color and vibrancy all season long. The shape, size, color, and texture of the plant foliage is a critical part of the design so that plants compliment each other and provide interest even when they are not in bloom. From spring to frost your gardens will be full of beautiful blooms and spectacular fragrance.

We believe in achieving year-round beauty in the garden. The long winter months can be a source of interest even in a New England gardens. Many plants display winter attributes that are every bit as attractive as their summer characteristics. Though coniferous evergreens provide green beauty throughout the cold season, there are several deciduous trees and shrubs with striking bark and colorful twigs and fruit.

We then set up a maintenance schedule that tailored specifically to your property and individual needs.
