Services

No job too big or too small

We're in the business of gardens.

Container Gardens

We like to call these Big Little Gardens. Fitting big color and texture into small spaces is our specialty and how our name originated. Whether you're a business with outdoor planters or a homeowner with window boxes we'll create little gardens with big impact.

Perrenial Gardens

Water features and Koi ponds

Little can improve a garden better than the sound of water. Whether it's a patio side fountain or a 20,000 gallon koi pond, you'll love the calming effect of flowing water.

Shade Gardens

Tired of those dark and dreary shaded parts of your yard. We love to bring bright pops of color to those often neglected spaces.
