Landscape design in Pasadena and nearby
Planting and layout ideas shaped around your home and how you use your yard, or your own design brought to life.
What is included
- Talking through how you use the yard
- Planting and bed layout ideas
- Installing plants, mulch and edging
- Building to a design you already have
- Refreshing tired beds and borders
A good yard design fits the house and how you live in it. We start from the space you have rather than a template.
How it works

Questions
Can you build from a design I already have?
Yes. If you have a design, we are glad to help make it real.
Do you help choose plants?
We can talk through plants that suit your yard and the Southern California climate.
Can you make over just part of the yard?
Yes. Many projects start with one bed, one corner or the front yard.
How do I start a garden makeover?

Helpful guides
Starting a landscape project
- Think about how you use the yard: dining, play, quiet corners, growing food
- Note where the sun and shade fall during the day
- Choose plants that suit Southern California, including drought-tolerant ones, and group plants with similar water needs together
- Phasing the work over time is fine, and often easier on the budget
Our mulch guide is a good companion for new beds.
