"The great challenge for the garden designer is not to make the garden look natural, but to make the garden so that the people in it will feel natural." ~ Lawrence Halprin

That quote is much more than a quote, but our way of doing business. At A Proper Garden, we approach every job, large or small, with a commitment to quality and attention to detail. And this begins in the design phase. A professionally created design gives you an overview of how the garden will look as it comes together. sometimes over a season, and sometimes over a period of years. We have all seen in many areas of our life that without a good plan, it's difficult to avoid missteps and the need to do things over. There is no better example of this than when it comes to your landscape. Investing in a good plan may well be some of the best money you spend on your landscape!

We have our own resident landscape designers and landscape architect to help capture your vision on paper before the shovel ever hits the ground. And if a vision is what you are lacking, we are happy to help you do some research to discover your likes and dislikes to help you figure out what it is you imagine! We are happy to design your dream and let you bring it to life with the planting, or we can provide a quote on our crews doing as much or as little of the work as you like.

Our design services range from complimentary, informal in-store consultations and quick on site planning advice, to fully developed master plans that vary in cost. Call us at (740)369-5060 to speak with one of our designers or email us to get started today.
