Design Packages
We take time to develop site-specific designs which meet our clients’ needs, with consideration for budget and space. Our process is a partnership. We match the client’s vision and goals with our designer’s expertise. This creative collaboration results in a formalized plan, often surprising the client with new ways “to see” and utilize their space. This design plan sets the foundation for the project installation, contributing to a smooth process and high quality end product.
We offer the following design packages:
Plants Only
Plan is a “plants only” design that enhances an existing landscape.
- One onsite design consultation
- 2-D concept plan that includes a planting layout plan, plant schedule, plant imagery and profiles

Partial Yard Plan

INITIAL CONSULTATION
Once we receive an initial inquiry then will email our questionnaire form (see ‘Getting Started’ ,or “Contact”), we will schedule an on-site design consultation with one of our designers. This meeting helps us understand your site conditions, goals, and project scope. There is a fee of $150 for the design consultation.
DESIGN PROPOSAL
We will provide a design quote for your approval. This quote includes the cost for the full design process, from site inventory and mobilization through the installation proposal.
SITE SURVEY, INVENTORY, AND MOBILIZATION
Depending on the scope of your project, we may request a site survey which you will provide. Our Site Masterplan design package requires a survey. We are happy to help facilitate this process and refer you to one of our preferred surveyors. In lieu of, or in addition to, the survey, we will schedule a site visit to take measurements, inventory, and photos of all design areas.
CONCEPT DESIGN
At this point in the process, together we will ensure that your budget matches the wish list you want. With your budget in mind, our designer will begin work on the first design concept, which is presented to you upon completion.
CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT
The development phase provides time for you and our designer to discuss the concept and share any feedback you may have. Requested changes are incorporated and an updated concept is provided. During this time, a planting plan with a full plant schedule that lists quantity and size specifications, as well as plant profiles with images and information, is provided.
FINAL DESIGN PLAN
Once all updates are incorporated into the concept with your approval, it will be referred to as the Final Design Plan and may include project details and material selections.
INSTALLATION PROPOSAL
A detailed installation quote is provided to you based on the approved Final Design Plan. This quote may be finessed based on the final material selection and project phasing. Once approved, the Final Design Plan moves into our installation process. Please note, our planting installation minimum is $1,500 and our hardscape installation minimum is $3,500.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND INSTALLATION
Upon the approval of the installation proposal and Final Design Plan, we oversee all the installation processes. We arrange permits, procure materials, and schedule every step of the build.
Enhancement
Some needs are smaller in scope, or purely functional, and do not require a full design process. We accommodate these clients through our enhancement project process. An enhancement project typically focuses on a single area of our client’s landscape, such as a privacy planting screen, fence install, hardscape repair or overlay, sod installation or repair, water mitigation and drainage updates, and small wall or patio installation.
Our Enhancement Process
- Initial Consultation – Once we have received an initial intake questionnaire from the client (see ‘Getting Started’) we will schedule an on-site enhancement consultation with one of our project managers.
- Consultation Fee – We charge $75 for an enhancement consultation, which is fully applicable towards the project installation fee if you move forward.
- Installation Proposal – We will provide the client with an installation quote for approval. Once approved, the project moves into our installation process. Please note, our install minimum for enhancement projects is $1,500.
