Our Story

Our landscaping journey began with residential projects in North Raleigh and inside the beltline in the late 1970s. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, we expanded our expertise to major commercial projects in Research Triangle Park, partnering with notable clients including IBM, Glaxo Pharmaceuticals, and Wachovia Real Estate Developments. These experiences broadened our skills and deepened our understanding of large-scale landscaping needs.

Today, our primary focus is on designing and installing residential landscapes that enhance quality of life and property value. Typical projects range from $3,000 to $80,000, always emphasizing quality, cost-effective, homeowner-centered design, and solid workmanship.


Our artsy approach, combined with a vast knowledge of ornamental plants and the strategic use of outdoor lighting, brings every landscape to life—creating outdoor spaces that are both functional and beautiful.
