I work with clients to create beautiful, seasonal planters, that provide color and interest throughout the seasons.

I source plants from quality, trusted, local nurseries.

Perennials

A beautifully designed and well thought-out perennial garden bed can bring color and interest to a garden space year-round. Perennials are a well-worth it investment that will return year after year. 

Annuals

Annuals can be added to garden spaces for color from spring through the fall, or can be used to create an impressive bed or planter by themselves. Annuals are unique in they provide multi season-long color without the commitment.

Trees and Shrubs

Trees and shrubs can act as an anchoring centerpiece for a garden, and can provide winter interest, privacy, structure, and even flowers.

Natives

Long island is home to many beautiful, native perennial species that bring beauty and function to a garden space. These natives provide habitat and food sources for pollinators. Some of these native plants include and are not limited to: 

-Purple Coneflower Echinacea purpurea

-High Bush Blueberry Vaccinium corymbosum

-Black-eyed Susan Rudbekia hirta

Edibles

Edibles bring value and functionality to an outdoor space. I work with clients to plant vegetables, Fruit trees and bushes, herbs, and edible flowers. 

I offer weeding services for beds of all sizes. Weeding should be done before the application of new mulch.

Mulch protects garden soil and provides a tidy look throughout the season. Not only does mulch add an aesthetic value to an outdoor space, but it provides many other benefits for plants as well. Mulch absorbs moisture and prevents evaporation, helping to save on irrigation costs. Quality mulch breaks down over time, improving soil organic matter and soil texture. Additionally, mulch acts as a natural barrier from weeds. 

I am available to help with routine or one-time watering and deadheading. 

Watering

If you’re traveling out of town, busy with work or life, or just want an appropriate watering schedule for your beds to help your plants thrive, I’m available for weekly, biweekly, or one time waterings. 

Deadheading

Did you know that both perennial and annual flowers benefit from routine deadheading? Removing spent blooms helps a plant by diverting energy from seed production into producing new blooms and foliage instead. I’m available for weekly, biweekly, or one-time help with deadheading.

A plant’s pruning needs depend on what time of year the plant flowers, how the plant flowers, what the plant’s growth habits are, and ultimately the needs of the property owner. Pruning helps to improve the overall appearance, shape, and health of a plant, and should be timed correctly to preserve blooms and fruits. While pruning, I use sharp, clean tools to preserve the health of the plant and mitigate the spread of potential diseases.
