Consultation Services

Sometimes the best way to start your landscape planning is to have a professional give you honest feedback to your thoughts and ideas, answer questions, provide suggestions, and get you started on a path to success.  I offer a 90-120 minute appointment to do all of this at your home or project site.  My answers and advice are specific to your situation and desires.  I can help you decide on a plan of action, what you are capable of doing yourself, and professional services.  My goal is to give you confidence that you are making thoughtful decisions and will not be backtracking in a few years.

How can this consultation help save you money?

Do you have plants that you like but do not like the resulting design?  I advise if they can be transplanted or pruned.

Are some of the plants not thriving?  I can help evaluate their growing conditions, for example if they are receiving too much shade or sun, water and soil conditions, diseases and pests.

Have you thought out all your options for your entertaining area and how you plan to use it?  I can help you plan a space that is what you both want and need.  I consider many issues that may influence your decision like children, pets, weather conditions, usage and more.

Are you selling your home and want to make a great first impression?  I can give you detailed advice on what to do to make your landscape one that prospective homeowners desire without breaking the bank.

Many people tell me they have already spent the consultation fee on plants or products that did not live up to their expectations.  The consultation pays for itself with every well designed element, plants that thrive and a landscape you can be proud to show off.

Consultation fee: $125.00

You will receive a copy of my detailed notes, sketches and photos of the visit in the mail following the meeting for your reference.
