Habitat

We see each of our gardens as a link in a chain of microhabitats that support threatened birds, butterflies and pollinators. To develop these relationships, our gardens incorporate plant combinations that are both beautiful and function as a complex ecosystem. We expertly choose plants that provide seasonal interest and bloom year round. Read more...

Living Fountains

Living Fountains capture the graywater from your washing machine or bathroom sink and clean it through plant roots and soil.  This process filters the impurities from the water, and bioinvigorates it from the naturally occuring bacteria in the plants specially chosen to effectively clean the water.  This water, when used in the garden, is teeming with life, and has the ability to make your plants healthier.  Read more...
