LANDSCAPE DESIGN
Starting with thoughtful site analysis, we design and craft landscapes which are experientially rich and ecologically responsible. Composing with form, color, time, and materials while taking into account natural systems, we seek to reveal the genius of a place by amplifying its assets and uncovering its potential.
Our approach is grounded in environmentally sustainable practices such as stormwater management, waste reduction, salvaging existing materials, and empowering people to be agents in the space. From terrace gardens to interior retail installations to envisioning a masterplan for a public school, we work at many scales and value close communication with our clients and the communities we're serving.

CONSTRUCTION
Our skilled crew of horticulturists, carpenters and masons is available to install stone patios, water features, custom planters, trellises, and any other elements in your plan. We hand pick, deliver and install a diverse palette of native and naturalized plants from local nurseries customized to the micro-climate and maintenance requirements of each site.

MAINTENANCE
Superlative white glove horticultural maintenance services are available for penthouses, offices, retail spaces, terraces, townhouse or brownstone backyards, and common roof decks. Weekly, Bi-weekly, and Monthly service packages are available.

 
Gorgeous senescence was one of the main criteria for the planting design for this naturalistic planting in Willy Guhl vintage planters. The terrace is not huge and the planting is minimal so each plant has to offer more than one season of interest.

Delighted to see how well this new planting has matured since we installed in April of this year! Everything here is drought tolerant. With the irrigation system winterized yesterday, we are hoping for rain and cold to help these plants make it throu
Autumn in New York at the Cammeyer is just getting started as the Birches and Wisteria start showing their yellow leaves. 

The seedheads of the Feather Reed grass, Sedum, and Echinacea are stunning in the autumn light!
One of our newest designs has come to life! 

With nods to a traditional Japanese Garden, we created a modern take appropriate for a store front space in NYC. River stones mimic a flowing stream, moss rocks reference mountains and hills, and small sc
Montauk daisies are blooming in our favorite vertical garden!

We introduced these fall bloomers about 3 seasons ago and are thrilled to see how well they are establishing in the difficult conditions that exist here. 

Stay tuned to see the mums flow

Beautiful but also tough enough to withstand high winds and constant sun exposure, the planting palette features lots of grasses and flowers with sculptural seed
