Discover how to design a beautiful and sustainable garden using native plants that require minimal upkeep.
Soil Science for Gardeners
Soil types, pH, amendments, composting - the foundation of every great landscape.
“You can't grow a $5,000 landscape in $2 soil. Fix the dirt first.”
Plant Selection by Zone
Hardiness zones, sun/shade, water needs, native species - pick plants that survive.
“Buying a plant that won't survive your winter isn't a challenge. It's a $75 lesson in reading the tag.”
Landscape Design Principles
Focal points, balance, scale, color theory, and line - create landscapes that look professionally designed.
“Amateurs plant what they like. Professionals plant what creates a composition. The secret is nobody can tell the difference until the amateurs' gardens look like a ransom note.”

Patios, walkways, retaining walls, drainage - the structural backbone of your landscape.
“Plants are the jewelry. Hardscaping is the outfit. You can have great jewelry on a terrible outfit, but everyone will still notice the outfit.”
Irrigation System Design
Drip vs spray, zones, head placement, timers, and smart controllers.
“Hand-watering your entire property is a great way to get to know every plant personally. It's also a terrible way to spend your Saturday.”
