Free Site Evaluation & Consultation

Every project starts with a complimentary on-site consultation where we assess your property’s layout, drainage, sun exposure, and existing landscaping. Whether you’re in Orangevale, Roseville, Folsom, or El Dorado Hills, we walk the space with you, discuss your goals, and begin crafting a landscape design plan that fits your home, lifestyle, and budget.

Our selections prioritize native and drought-tolerant species ideal for the Sacramento Valley’s climate. We also guide you in selecting pavers, stone, mulch, and other materials that complement your design.
