Professional landscape design in Seattle means choosing plants that actually thrive in our climate instead of fighting against it season after season. Our landscape design and installation services start with understanding your property's specific conditions—sun exposure, soil drainage, shade patterns, and how you want to use your outdoor space—then we select climate-appropriate plants that deliver year-round interest without constant intervention. We blend Pacific Northwest native species like vine maple or sword ferns with well-adapted perennials and shrubs that handle our wet winters and dry summers, creating garden beds with varied textures, heights, and bloom times that look intentionally designed rather than randomly assembled.

Our planting projects focus on the long view: we space plants properly so they have room to mature without crowding each other out in three years, we amend Seattle's challenging clay soil so roots can actually establish, and we design with maintenance in mind because a garden that requires heroic effort every weekend isn't sustainable. The benefit of working with landscaping companies that know King County's microclimates is that your new plantings establish faster, perform better, and cost less to maintain over time—because we're not guessing what might work, we're installing what we know will thrive here based on thirty years of local experience. Whether you're renovating tired foundation plantings, adding privacy screening that actually grows dense in Seattle's conditions, or creating new garden beds from scratch, professional landscape design means your property looks better each year instead of becoming a maintenance burden you regret.
