Low maintenance landscapes designed for sanctuary and comfort

A garden should provide sanctuary and comfort from the stress of our busy lives and the hustle-bustle of today’s world. A landscape plan created by an award winning, experienced & certified landscape designer will assist you in achieving the outdoor environment you desire for your home.

Intentional about choosing the right plant for the right place, Donna considers ease of maintenance, rate of growth, edibility, drought tolerance and disease resistance in her planting plans. She combines native and introduced non-invasive plants into creative planting arrangements that attract birds, butterflies and beneficial pollinating insects. Metal, wood and stone are employed through fences, hardscaping, arbors, pergolas, retaining walls and courtyards to bring texture, interest and dimension to her landscape designs.

Donna’s design philosophy is rooted in a belief that outdoor spaces should be enjoyed. Her process relies on listening carefully to your needs to create an outdoor environment that is uniquely yours, influenced by the architecture of your home and your family’s lifestyle. Her priorities include creating a low maintenance environment you’ll enjoy year-round and preserving our diminishing native plant and wildlife habitat.

What clients have to say…

We are grateful for Donna’s extremely well-thought out, deliberate selections for our landscaping. When she said her intention was to have something “interesting/flowering” year round, I don’t think we could have imagined our delight every time we look out our windows or pull in and out of the driveway.

― Susan

Donna developed a wonderful planting plan. She incorporated many native plants that were low maintenance. She helped us determine what plants would do well with the type of soil we had. We had a very positive experience working with Donna and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a landscape designer.
