We love plants, and we pay special attention to the plants we choose and the roles they will play in your garden.
Plants often define the character of a garden, adding color, fragrance, texture, and personality.
For a garden to grow well here, it is critical to use plants that are adapted to our local conditions, including our high and dry climate, our mineral soils with their low organic content, and our alkaline water. Properly chosen and planted, new plants will:
- reach their full potential in the landscape with less maintenance
- live longer and healthier
- build mutually supportive biological communities
- make it a joy to be in your garden
We select superior plants– from tiny groundcovers to specimen trees– from reputable suppliers. We prepare the garden with customized fertilizers and active composts, based on our soil analysis and the needs of the plants. We handle the plants carefully, from selection in the nursery through delivery and planting. We irrigate and mulch them with equal care, knowing the importance of this final phase. We give them the best possible start in their new home!
