Design Overview


My garden designs feature:

  • Hardy, easy-care plants
  • A diversity of plant materials
  • An emphasis on native plants
  • Multi-season interest
  • Natural & simple designs
  • Plants that support wildlife
  • Eco-friendly practices
  • Designs for healing spaces
  • Locally-available plants
  • Interesting focal points

All plants used in my designs meet my strict easy-care guidelines. They have been tested in my gardens, require minimal upkeep, and are hardy in our Zone 5 growing area.

Everything looks amazing!! The plants all look happier and the yard looks so much better. The areas all relate better to each other now. . . . It just looks so much better. I can’t thank you enough for the transformation. I only wish I knew of you 4 years ago!
