consultation
n
I charge $100 to come to your garden, walk
with you through it and discuss what you'd like it to
become. This usually takes about 1 1/2 hours. If you have
lots of ideas, I'll listen to them; if you don't have
a vision, I'll share mine. Usually within this
time it will become clear if we're able to work together.
If you choose to have me help you with your garden design,
part of the consultation will be determining the elements
of your garden.
design
n
My garden designs are customized, primarily with my
specialty, flowers and herbs. Depending on the client,
I may use a lot of input on specific flowers, complimented
with my own expertise. How the garden is to be
used will also inform what goes into it, e.g., an outdoor
room will make use of texture and fragrance that is best
appreciated close-up.
installation
n
Your
design plan might call for the garden to be phased in
from season to season for color renewal, or to be planted
all at once.
maintenance
n
I am available to teach Caring For Your Garden
sessions to new clients. I encourage fertilizing,
pest and disease control through non-chemical means. Some
clients like me to check on their garden once a month,
others seasonally, and add more flowers and herbs to keep
it at its beautiful best.
