About

Choisya ternata SundanceI use my combined life long passions, plants and art, to help you see and actualize the garden you are looking for.

With an artists eye and a gardeners know-how we can turn your overgrown and discouraging yard into a a cohesive, vibrant, peaceful garden.

I started propagating houseplants as a school girl, took classes at Horticultural Hall in Boston as a teen, acquired a degree in painting and drawing from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY,  and two degrees in horticulture and landscape from Clackamas Community College in Oregon in my adult life.  I am a tree inspector for Friends of Trees, have volunteered for the  Backyard Habitat Certification Program , and am a member of the Association of Northwest Landscape Designers.
