garden design
Good gardens begin with a design providing a framework for bringing order, beauty and harmony to the whole
The making of a garden serves an aesthetic as well as functional and ecological purposes connecting us with our environment and creating a profound impact on the world
diversity is key to a healthy ecosystem
nutrient-rich soil
efficient use of water
plantings for insects, pollinators, birds and wildlife
A garden designed well creates a place of beauty with a sensitivity to the land; a sensory aspect invariably simple and ultimately unique
Organize and strengthen the link between home and garden
site plan accounts for clients needs and existing conditions
landscape design lends privacy, pathways, patios, plantings
As an avid naturalist and visual artist
my life’s work highlights the health and beauty of our surroundings
I love introducing interesting plants to encourage appreciation of diversity, designing with native trees, shrubs and perennials whenever possible. Plants have a choice role in creating ecologically stable environments and developing resilience to the challenges of climate change and environmental disruptions
