Landscaping one’s home is a very personal process. Like individuality it
should be unique and reflect the home owner’s personality. Unfortunately
there does not seem to be the creativity out there. I drive by several
homes a day and see the same old. Giant uni-stone walls and pathways
with very little planting spaces. That is where I feel more emphasis
should be focused. Whats amazing about a good plant design is as it ages
it goes up in value. A small evergreen when planted may be $100.00 but
within 5 years be worth $800.00. At the same time that $2000.00 planting
designed properly will be worth that much more. Not only does it
increase the sex appeal and privacy of your property, but it will
increase the value of your property as well.
There are several ways of getting that professional plant design. Go
see a landscape architect and pay hundreds of dollars, and if you have
the budget, it is a good way to go. If you have time look through
magazines and online and familiarize yourself with the look you want, or
make an appointment with me. What I can offer you is either a turn key.
I design according to what I see from a questionnaire I give you. You
approve it, the paper work is finished and I scheduale you in. I finish,
you are ecstatic and you give me the last payment.
I can also design for you, and you supply the labor which will save you
money, but still get the professional look. Fees for the design vary
with the size and detail you are looking for. From the $200.00 range to
$800.00 range with plant discounts available when you take the whole
package. (see consultation and design fees)
