A Garden Coach is a professional who comes to your garden to help you create a beautiful garden. It is a highly personalized service that recognizes your individual needs and style!

Garden coaches recognize that many home owners are extremely interested in developing a vision for their landscapes, but often need the guidance that only a professional can provide. By working one-on-one, my clients benefit from my years of experience in landscape design. Together we establish a vision: perhaps you’ve always wanted an herb garden or an outdoor room to enjoy. I empower my clients to make the best choices to achieve the landscape of their dreams.

Many clients join me at garden centres where I help them high-grade their plant selections (i.e. picking the finest specimens in the lot). We’ll shop at garden centres and wholesale nurseries where you’ll benefit from my trade discounts! I deliver plants to your garden, and help you place them in an artful arrangement. You get the right plants in the right place!

As a Garden Coach, I empower you by:

  • developing a vision for your property, based on your needs and your wishlist
  • taking stock of your existing garden assets, identifying what’s worth keeping and what should be eliminated
  • helping with plant selection and placement
  • integrating native plants into your garden
  • making suggestions for a lower-maintenance gardening
  • creating a seasonal maintenance plan to ensure the long-terms health of your garden

One of my most popular coaching tools is a 3D rendering that helps my clients visualize exactly how proposed changes to their garden will appear in photo-realistic renderings.

I work on-site with clients in British Columbia and Southern California. I also work online, with digital photos provided by clients from across Canada and the US.
