Garden Designs

This service is for those who would like completed, to-scale, planting plans and plant lists. It consists of two phases:

Phase 1: Client Meeting & Concept Plan

An initial on-site meeting will be scheduled to go over the project and the client's vision. Specific areas within the site will also be measured and photographed during the visit. After the meeting, a design brief will be sent to the client outlining the project, timelines, deliverables, and cost.

Once the client agrees to the design brief, a scaled concept plan will be produced that outlines preliminary garden layouts, including trees, shrubs, and perennial plant groupings. This drawing will give a general impression of the design's scale and overall shape. A preliminary plant list will also be produced that outlines the plants used within the design in greater detail.

Phase 2: Planting Plan & Plant List

In this phase, a planting plan will be produced that identifies every plant within the design, their numbers, and their respective locations. The plant list will also be updated to reflect the detailed information found within the planting plan. These two documents can then be used to field quotes for materials and installation by a third party, or can be used by the client to install the garden(s) themselves.

  • The time needed to complete a design depends on the size of the project. Typical timelines range in the 2-3 weeks from beginning to end.

  • The cost for this service will depend on the size and complexity of the project and will be itemized in the design brief sent after our initial meeting.

Please get in touch if you would like to discuss this particular service further, or are unsure which service would best serve your current needs.

On-site Garden Consultation

This service is for those who need help understanding their garden, what they can do with it, and how to look after it properly.

Examples of common problems discussed include:

  • how to further enhance a garden with new plant additions or removal of existing plants

  • how to rejuvenate overgrown gardens

  • how to design and install a new garden (DIY)

Please note: it is strongly recommended that clients come prepared to take notes during a consultation. While I will provide plant names and any rough sketches I make, I will not detail everything we discussed in my email to you after the consultation.

Any sketches produced during the consultation will not be to-scale, and finished designs will not be provided. If you are looking for completed planting plans and plant lists, please consider my garden design service instead.

  • This service can be up to 1.5 hours in length.

  • This service costs $300.

Please get in touch if you are unsure which of my services would best serve your current needs.
