Your garden in Palo Alto

Help at every stage.

  • Landscape Design

    We create landscape plans that show the layout, planting, materials, irrigation and lighting for your project.

  • Landscape Construction

    We build landscapes, including site preparation, drainage, patios, walkways, retaining walls, irrigation, lighting and planting.

  • Landscape Maintenance

    We look after gardens through the year, ones we built and ones somebody else did, so each stays the garden it was meant to be.

Before design starts

What is different here.

Palo Alto publishes something most towns do not: a landscape permit trigger worksheet that walks a homeowner through whether their project pulls in review at all, separately from the submittal guidelines themselves. It is the quickest way to settle the threshold question early, and it is the difference between designing with the water budget in mind and redrawing a planting plan after plan check.

The same everywhere

How a job runs.

Design, build and maintenance are one company here, so the drawing is made by people who will have to build it and the garden is looked after by people who know why it was built that way. See how we take a project from first visit to finished garden.

Palo Alto is one of the towns we work in most, so no travel charge applies. We also work well beyond these towns, with a $100 travel charge once, on the first visit, outside the towns listed.

Let's talk about your garden.

For a new design or garden project, the consultation is $175 and covers the first hour on the property. If the visit runs past the hour, we agree the extra time with you first. For ongoing care, the maintenance walk is $75 so we can see the garden and price the work.

Visits are prepaid. Neither fee is credited toward later work.
