Seclusion, grown rather than built.
Mature trees, layered hedges, and living green walls that wrap your property in privacy and surround your family with natural beauty in every season.
Privacy is the foundation of outdoor comfort.
Here is a quiet truth about outdoor living. You can build the most beautiful terrace in the world, but if you feel watched on it, you will not use it. Privacy is not a feature of luxury landscapes. It is the precondition for everything else.
We create seclusion the most beautiful way possible, with living material. Mature trees planted at meaningful size, so you get privacy this season rather than in a decade. Layered hedges that read as soft green architecture. Climbing vines that turn fences into walls of leaves. The result encloses without ever feeling like a fortress.
Then, inside that green envelope, the garden itself comes alive, layered planting with four-season interest, fragrance near the places you sit, and movement that softens every line of stone. This is what makes a space feel finished, and what makes it feel like yours.

Green architecture, layer by layer.
Every planting plan balances privacy, beauty, and seasonality.
Mature Tree Installation
Field-grown specimen trees planted at size, instant canopy, instant privacy, instant presence.
Layered Hedge Screens
Formal or naturalistic hedging that builds a soft, dense wall of green between you and the world.
Living Walls & Vines
Espaliers, green screens, and climbing vines that transform fences and walls into living architecture.
Four-Season Planting
Designed succession so something is always in leaf, in bloom, or in color, never a bare month.
Sensory Gardens
Fragrance by the seating, movement in the grasses, sound in the leaves. Gardens designed for all five senses.
Irrigation & Soil Health
Smart irrigation and soil preparation that keep the investment thriving for decades.
What separates planting from placemaking.
Block the sight line, not the sky
We map exactly where neighboring windows and streets look in, and screen those lines precisely, keeping light and openness everywhere else.
Plant for year one and year ten
Mature material gives immediate effect, while the plan anticipates growth so the garden improves with age instead of overgrowing.
Layers create depth
Canopy, understory, shrub, and ground layers make even modest gardens feel deep, established, and far larger than their dimensions.
Right plant, right place
Sun, soil, and water needs matched honestly to each location. That is the difference between a landscape that thrives and one that merely survives.

What to expect.
Privacy and greenscape installations with our firm typically begin around $30,000, with full-property planting plans including mature specimen trees commonly ranging from $30,000 to $150,000.
Planting is designed together with hardscape and lighting, so the green and the built environment mature as one composition.
- Size and quantity of mature specimens
- Length and height of screening runs
- Planting density and layering
- Irrigation and soil preparation
- Seasonal and sensory complexity
Every project begins with a complete design. Design engagements begin at $7,500, and as part of a complete outdoor environment our construction budgets typically start around $150,000.
