Detailed Design Plan for a Partial or Full Yard Space

I take a detailed look at your existing plants and soil, and we discuss what your needs and wants are for your garden. I consider privacy needs, all layers of plants, from tree canopies and shrubs to groundcovers and bulbs, year-round interest, maintenance issues, and a myriad of other considerations in putting together a comprehensive and detailed design.

First, I meet with you on-site to talk about your wish list for your space and other details. I will then take detailed measurements of your yard and existing plants to create a "to scale" base map.

We will then meet again to review two preliminary concept drawings together.

After we decide together on preliminary details, I will take all that information back to my office to prepare a final formal design. I will take into account your wish list and style as well as many other variables from soil, long-term growth plan, watering goals, groundcover, whether you are installing the design, hiring me to install your design, or hiring a landscaping company to do the install, and more.

The final design will be printed in color and to scale. You will also receive a detailed plant list, plant reference photos, and plant care instructions.

Cost: Depends on the size of your space and your overall design needs, although it often falls in the range of $1,500-$6,000.

Note: This is for a design plan; not construction or architectural drawings.
