Landscape Master Planning

A landscape master plan is a comprehensive document that guides the development or modification of a property or project area. The plan is produced through a step-by-step Design Process that evaluates existing conditions, considers the client’s goals and objectives, addresses functionality, and establishes the aesthetic vision for the project.

When a client commissions a landscape master plan, we may collaborate with a licensed landscape architect, if necessary, to provide landscape architectural and master planning services. The landscape master plan includes a planting design.

Planting Design + Plant Refresh

Plants play a central role in all of our projects, and are utilized for a range of functional and aesthetic reasons to meet a client’s goals and objectives. Not every project requires a comprehensive landscape master plan. Depending upon the size and scope, design solutions are often accessible through thoughtful planting design or a plant refresh. 

The successful establishment of any garden and the associated upkeep of the plantings is vital to client satisfaction. For this reason our design services are only offered in conjunction with: plant procurement, the on-site layout of plant materials, installation, and subsequent maintenance consultations or maintenance services.

Plant Procurement

We personally source all plant materials for the project.

• Site visits to nurseries to select specimen trees, large evergreens, and shrubs.

• We have relationships with many reputable local growers and nurseries to source the highest quality plant materials. Additionally, we are expanding our capabilities to custom-grow specialty plants for our projects.

• Site visits to nurseries to maintain quality control.

Plant Installation

• Delivery of plant materials. We will be onsite or coordinate with the landscape contractor to receive plant materials and maintain them on-site through installation.

• We personally layout plant materials on-site, and often refer to this process as “painting with plants,” especially when referencing our meadows.

• We take care of plant installation + oversight.

LandCare

• Produce a site-specific maintenance and plant care plan.

• Preform landscape maintenance and / or garden stewardship training.
