We offer in-depth landscape consultation culminating in a landscape plan, or we can provide a series of sketches of landscape possibilities. [top] Naturalizing and Planting for Wildlife We work very hard to achieve a more natural or casual look. We plant many native species but use only those plant materials that are suitable for a particular site. The diversity of plants we use also provides an attractive habitat and food source for birds. [top] We supply and plant perennials, ground covers, ornamental grasses, shrubbery and trees of all sizes and varieties. We use a diversity of plants for year round interest. Our plants are all personally selected from the best growers and suppliers in New England. [top] We actively encourage homeowners to reduce the size of turf grass areas. We design and plant compositions of many attractive and low maintenance plants, often of value to wildlife. [top] We can transplant anything in the landscape from perennials and ground covers to all types of shrubbery and trees (up to 45 feet tall). [top] We have machines to accomplish anything in the landscape. We routinely: put and remove stumps; re-contour land; re site hillsides and ledges; set large stones; create natural ponds, swimming and garden pools; site tennis courts and driveways. [top] Swimming Pools and Garden Pools We site and construct all types of swimming pools, decks and surrounding landscapes. Our garden pools and water features add a unique dimension to the landscape. [top] We site, contour and plant around tennis courts to blend the court into the landscape rather than have it dominate the property. [top]
[top] We build mortared fieldstone walls where they are most needed for retaining. More often, we build casual, freestanding fieldstone walls for background or definition in the landscape. [top] We build terraces and walkways of brick, bluestone, cobblestone and natural stone. Our emphasis is on curvilinear forms that compliment the natural landscape. [top] We do everything from excavator and dozer work to finish grading, seeding and plantings. [top] We install irrigation and water lines only where they are necessary. We believe water is a precious resource and we don't encourage unnecessary watering of plants and lawns. [top] We ofer surface and subsurface drainage installation as well as drainage solutions for problem areas. [top] One of our strengths in assisting homeowners to develop a strategy for maintaining desirable trees and for making decisions about which trees to thin our or remove. [top] We design and plant both formal and informal perennial gardens. We often use shrub roses and ornamental grasses as accents in the garden, and as mass planting outside the garden. [top] |
We carefully establish the parameters and contours for all paved areas so they are functional, as well as aesthetically pleasing.
