With this understanding we can begin to create a garden design that reflects your vision.

We will, in detail, look at plants, trees, soil, and garden layout related to your microclimate. Through this meeting you will better understand the next steps to bringing garden harmony and balance to your landscape.
Home & Garden: If you’re considering redesigning your living space and would like our perspective on home and garden aesthetics, then this is for you. This includes entry ways to and from the gardens, structural changes, materials, colors, etc. We’ll brainstorm with you on the possibilities. If a project is in progress and you would like an additional viewpoint, we’re happy to collaborate.

Fine garden care is focused attention on your garden’s health and garden aesthetics helping to create garden harmony and balance.
We prune and care for your plants beautifully and intelligently with horticultural knowledge, understanding what each plant and tree needs and when. We use natural and aesthetic pruning principles; organic compost and organic fertilizers – no chemicals or synthetics. Research is an aspect of what we do when needed. Through attention to the elements of your garden, we provide prevention and troubleshooting of horticultural problems in the landscape. This enhances its’ beauty, an essential element in all we do. Your plants will love this care.
As an elevated degree of health and beauty, ask us about applying compost tea.
aesthetic pruning
Aesthetic pruning is a sophisticated, beautiful and scientific approach to tree pruning that goes beyond traditional arboriculture. A tree that has been aesthetically pruned and trained over time can be transformed. It is often about creating a beautiful focal point, while in some cases, it’s about blending into the landscape.
While Japanese maples are one of our specialties, we excel at pruning all deciduous and evergreen trees, as well as trees that require specialized pruning techniques, such as olives, pines, and fruit trees.
Our expertise in landscape design ensures that every tree is pruned beautifully and in harmony with your overall garden aesthetics.
installation project management
Garden installation project management is the process of overseeing and coordinating all aspects of the installation, from the initial planning and design stages to the final installation.
We work together with all parties in the effort to facilitate the project plan. We coordinate various timelines and manage the resources, including materials, equipment, and personnel, needed to execute the plan.
garden coaching
Garden coaching is a service that provides personalized support to individuals who want to improve their gardening skills.
In this process you can learn about sustainable landscaping techniques, garden harmony and balance, and landscape aesthetics. Our coaching sessions will give you the tools and approaches you need to care for your garden.
