Next Step: Your Garden Consultation
Garden Consultation
We will come together in your garden for a 60 minute session to learn about your garden vision.
During this consultation I will collect information about your site and how your household hopes to enjoy and interact with your space.
In less than a week you will get a follow up summarizing our discussion, answering your key questions and recommendations for moving forward with either a design mood board or an estimate for an installation.
Some of my clients are looking for someone to identify plants in their garden, sharing seasonal care tips and plant recommendations.
If you go forward with a detailed planting design there is a cost per sqft. and includes up to 1 revision of the original plan.
