Custom Designs
Custom Garden Design is created to reflect each client's unique style and interests. By consulting with clients to understand their specific requirements, visually appealing design solutions are tailored to their outdoor spaces.
The gardens are designed, cultivated, and maintained to represent four-dimensional art forms. A holistic approach ensures a harmonious balance of shapes, colors, and textures, seamlessly integrating plants with seasonal horticultural unity, scale, and sequence.
Four-Season Design
Our garden designs provide a balanced combination of carefully selected perennials and annuals, as well as a mix of native plants, shrubs, and trees that contribute to year-long interest and color in the landscapes.
By making the most of every month, clients are ensured the maximum enjoyment and value from their gardens and outdoor spaces.
Naturalistic Gardens
The designs and creations of naturalistic gardens focus on choosing native plants and flowers. These gardens increase biodiversity and provide food and refuge for wildlife.
By introducing colorful plants with defined periods of seasonal interest, abundant resources are provided to pollinators, ensuring a thriving and environmentally supportive landscape.
Pollinator Gardens
Pollinator gardens provide for the needs of local pollinating species. Plants are selected to provide food for various life stages, along with physical features that provide water and natural habitats.
Container Gardening “Colorful Pots of Ideas”
Container gardening serves as an ideal method for adding life and color to balconies, decks, steps, and strategically positioned containers around gardens, enhancing visual appeal, concealing empty spaces, and forming natural "fences."
VT Garden Design provides a variety of vivid colors, delicate fragrances, and stunning foliage that can be rotated throughout the seasons to maintain a continuous visual allure in your outdoor spaces.
Frequently, we craft "mini landscapes" within containers, including bulb gardens, cottage gardens, moss gardens, herb gardens, contemporary gardens featuring textured grasses, as well as shrubs and trees that evoke a Mediterranean ambiance and eye-catching winter displays.
Interior Landscaping
The arrival of frost often brings a sense of melancholy as we bid farewell to our gardens for the season.
To combat the winter blues, we design and craft a variety of indoor gardens, including plant walls, Zen gardens, fairy gardens, succulent gardens, and terrariums – the choice is yours to enjoy!
Garden Establishment and Maintenance
Vermont Garden Design provides soil testing and amendments; pruning; pest control; bulb plantings and seasonal “clean-ups.”
