We start with a walkthrough of your property to note sun exposure, drainage patterns, and existing plants worth keeping. From there we put together a bed layout and plant list suited to Durham’s clay soil and Piedmont climate, then install in phases if the scope calls for it. The goal is a yard that holds its shape year over year, not just at installation.
Every plan starts with an in-person walkthrough of your property, not a template pulled off a shelf.
Bed prep and plant choices account for Durham's clay soil and the local growing season from the start.
Larger projects can be broken into phases that fit your budget and timeline.
Selections account for each bed's actual sun exposure and how well that spot drains.
Plant choices matched to full sun, part shade, and full shade zones on your property.
Bed prep and amendment suited to Durham's compacted red clay so plants establish faster.
Designs built to be installed in one phase or several, depending on your budget.
We walk the property to note sun exposure, drainage, and existing plants worth keeping.
A bed layout and plant list are put together based on the walkthrough and your goals.
You receive a written quote based on the approved design before any work begins.
Planting and bed work is scheduled and completed in one phase or several, depending on scope.
New beds need consistent watering through their first growing season, especially during Durham’s hot, humid summer stretch. We set new plantings with a layer of mulch to hold soil moisture and cut down on weed pressure, and we can flag a watering schedule so root systems establish before the following summer’s heat.
