Landscape design & installs

Designed for your yard, not a catalog.

Good landscaping starts with a plan that fits your property: sun, soil, drainage and how you actually use the yard. We design beds, borders and plantings that look right from the street and hold up through Chicagoland winters.

Then we build it — soil prepped, plants set with room to mature, beds edged and mulched. You get a yard that looks intentional on day one and better every season after.

The design process

Four steps from idea to planted.

No 40-page proposals — just a plan that fits and a crew that builds it.

01

Walk & listen

We look at sun, soil, drainage and how you use the yard — and hear what you're picturing.

02

Plan & pick

Beds, borders and plant choices mapped out, hardy species suited to this zone — with your say on every pick.

03

Prep & plant

Soil amended, spacing set for mature size, beds edged and mulched on install day.

Built for here

Plants that survive Chicagoland.

Vibrant planted garden beds in bloom

Zone-hardy by default

Every plant list starts from what thrives between a lake-effect January and an August heat dome — pretty AND tough.

Right plant, right spot

Sun-lovers in sun, shade-tolerant where the oak wins — fights with nature cost you money.

Finished means finished

Edged, mulched, watered-in and cleaned up — installs end photo-ready, not “almost”.

Four-season thinking

Structure for winter, color rotations for the warm months — a yard that works in February too.

Start with one bed.

Plenty of full-yard projects started as a single front bed done right.

Good landscaping looks intentional from the street.

That's the test. Not expensive, not complicated — intentional. A front yard where the beds, lines and plants clearly belong to each other is worth more than any single showpiece plant.

Mulch & garden beds

Fresh mulch, crisp edges and weeded beds — the fastest way to make the whole yard look new.

Sod & seeding

Thin or tired lawn? We patch, overseed or re-sod to bring it back thick and green.

Hedge & shrub trimming

Shrubs shaped and hedges squared, so the green stays crisp instead of shaggy.

Design FAQs

Frequently asked questions.

Do you handle small projects, or only full yards?

Both. A single front bed refresh is a real job to us — and plenty of full-yard projects started as one bed done right.

Will the plants survive the winter?

That's the point of designing for the Midwest — we choose hardy species suited to this zone and plant them at the right time of season.

Do I pick the plants, or do you?

Both — we bring a plan with species that will actually thrive, you keep veto power on every choice. It's your yard; we just stop it from becoming a plant graveyard.

When's the best time to plant?

Spring and fall are prime, but with the right watering plan most installs succeed through the season. We'll be straight about what fits the calendar.

Can you work around what's already there?

Absolutely — good designs usually keep the healthy mature stuff and build around it. Removal is a last resort, not a sales tactic.

Are estimates really free?

Yes — every estimate is free and carries no obligation. We look at the property, talk through what you want, and give you a clear number before any work starts.
