Landscape Design

I'll work with you to develop an ecologically sound design that meets your needs.  

1) At our first meeting, we'll discuss how you now use your yard, how you could get more out of your yard, what you'd like to keep, and what you'd like to change.  I'll evaluate the soil and the site to determine the best types of plants for your landscape and we'll bounce ideas around about the form and composition of your new garden. At this meeting, you'll decide  if you want to move forward with a design.  

2) In about a week, I'll have an initial design for you.  We'll meet again to walk the yard and visualize how it would look.  We'll discuss the species selections and any changes you'd like to make. 

3) In another week or so, I'll get back to you with a final plan (in person or virtually, depending on the extent of the changes). 

4) If you wish, I can order and arrange delivery of the plants (and irrigation, hardscape, mulch, etc. as desired) and select a contractor(s) to install the plants, etc.  On delivery, I'll place the plants in the correct spots for installation and work briefly with the crew if needed, but won't be present the whole time. 
​
5) After installation is complete, we'll have a final walk-through and discuss establishment and maintenance of your new native landscape.    

Design cost is based on the size and complexity of the project, but typically is between $750 and $1500.

Landscape Consultation

Do you want to integrate natives into an existing landscape?  Do you have a concept or design already and want a professional opinion?  Or do you have a native garden that's in need of some rejuvenation?  Let's meet and talk it over.  The cost is $90 per hour. 

What about rebates?

San Diego County Water Authority and your local water agency are offering to pay at least $3 per square foot to replace your lawn with drought tolerant species.  This rebate program takes a more environmentally-sound approach than past incentives to just "kill your lawn." and consequently there's been less demand.  If you have a suitable site, I can prepare the application package for you.  SDWCA has a lot of good resources for you to explore; these can help inform you about key issues and better prepare you before meeting with me.  ​
