We specialize in five design typologies which include:

NATIVE SONORAN ENVIRONMENTS

Native Sonoran Environments restrict the plant palette to site-specific regions throughout the Sonoran Desert. This signature approach is socially and environmentally responsible, while moving toward sustainability.

  • Meets City of Scottsdale’s Native Area Open Space [NAOS] requirements
  • Caters to individual HOA requirements
  • Encourages maximum total site area used for native Sonoran plants
  • Fosters water-conscious approach
  • Eliminates noxious weeds including desert brooms, pennisetum and tamarix


MODERN GARDENS

Modern Gardens emphasize fundamental design concepts including form, function, cohesion and aesthetics. Special attention is paid to planting patterns and spacing. The use of clean lines to compliment existing architectural form results in the creation of original spaces with minimal effort. A minimal plant palette is often utilized in combination with repetition of form. In a word – simplicity.


LUSH SUCCULENT GARDENS

Lush Succulent Gardens maximize a variety of succulent [water storing] species, mainly aloes and agaves. Emphasis is places on a rich combination of textures, form, color combinations, plant groupings and density. The use of year-round flowering species achieve a beautiful garden without the need for annuals. This type of garden is sure to attract native and migrating habitat.


ENGLISH COTTAGE GARDEN HYBRID

An English Cottage Garden Hybrid is a unique combination of succulents and cacti, as well as annual and flowering shrubs used to establish plant groupings and spaces heavily influenced by classic English Cottage Gardens. A Sonoran-adapted plant palette then takes into account our extreme micro-climate and balances site-specific limitations and opportunities.
