Additional Garden Path Consulting & Design Services
Have you started to make some changes in your garden, but still have questions?
Do you have an idea, but don’t know how to proceed?
Have you tackled one part of your garden, but there is another area you want to improve?
Do you have a garden maintenance plan?
Here’s how I will help you take a second look and make a plan to move forward.
Landscape Consulting Part 2 We will continue where we left off– another 60-90 minute consultation– focusing on furthering your vision for your green space. We will answer your questions and concerns and come up with new ways to enhance your garden.
Design Consultation before Planting If you have purchased some plants or are moving plants, I will provide some final design ideas before putting plants in the ground. We can work together to best move trees, shrubs, perennials, annuals and possible accessories such as rocks, art, and furniture to their best place for planting. We can consider the micro-climate, where the design is viewed from and how the plants interact.
Formal Design Plan I will develop a site plan that identifies and places all plant material and hardscape using Realtime Landscaping Architect software by Idea Spectrum. I will also provide information on all the plants and a table listing all the plants and materials with all the quantities listed. You can take this table right to a nursery or a landscape contractor.
Maintenance Plan As you make changes to your landscape, you need to have a plan to keep your greenspace looking beautiful. No garden, even low maintenance gardens, can survive maintenance free. I will create a personalized plan for you that considers your plants, your specific environment, and your personal relationship with your landscape.
Coordination with Landscape Contractors It is sometimes difficult to trust your land and money to a contractor. I will communicate with the contractor to help ensure that you are getting what you want and can help evaluate changes they may suggest.
