What to expect during your Garden Design Consultation
-
Pre-consultation discussion
Before we visit the property, we'll ask you a few questions to understand your vision and goals. Are you looking for a contemporary garden, a coastal garden, or something more traditional? What plants or features do you want to include?
This helps us prepare a plan that fits your needs and takes our local climate into account.

After our visit, we will provide you with a design proposal that will include a layout, plant suggestions, recommended materials, and tips for ongoing care. We’ll ensure the design is within your budget and can be completed in stages if needed.
