Consultation and Design


     The foundation to any new landscape or garden renovation begins with a Professional Design
Process.  Laying the framework by providing Plan-View and Perspective Drawings are important for client
awareness and sound mind. The advice and recommendations from experienced designers are then
melded with the client’s ideas and expectations into a Master Plan, where all main design elements are
revealed.  By using Computer-Aided Designs the artwork grows in practicality and the Master Plan
then provides all the information needed to move into the installation phase including pricing, proposals
and plant lists. 


*all design staff are accredited nurseryman by the Indiana Nurseryman and Landscape Association as Masters in Horticulture
