Southwest Florida Landscape Design

In Southwest Florida, I am known as The Plant Lady, and landscape design is the heart of what I do. I take a warm, personal, design first approach to creating outdoor spaces that feel polished, welcoming and genuinely suited to the home. I work directly with homeowners who want more than a row of random plants and basic curb appeal, designing landscapes that are intentional, balanced and planned around how the property should look and feel over time, whether it is a comfortable family home or a refined luxury residence.

You work directly with me from the first conversation to the finished garden, not a rotating crew who have never met you. I am Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ certified and a member of the Florida Nursery, Growers and Landscape Association, so your landscape is built on real plant knowledge and chosen to suit our climate, your soil and the Florida sun. I care about the small details that make a garden feel properly looked after, and about how your home looks long after the work is done.

Why Homeowners Choose to Work with Me

Service Areas

Led by Design and Florida-Friendly Design™ Certification

A landscape should not only look good on the day it is planted. It should suit the architecture of the home, work with Florida conditions, and be realistic for the way you actually live. That is why design comes first in everything I do. As a Florida-Friendly Landscaping™ certified professional and a member of the FNGLA, the Florida Nursery, Growers and Landscape Association, I bring a real understanding of plant selection, site conditions and long term performance to every design. I do not believe in over planting, or in giving clients something that only looks good for five minutes and a camera angle.

Built for How You Live, Including Time Away

Many of the homes I design for belong to seasonal residents who spend part of the year up north or elsewhere. I design with that in mind, choosing layouts and plants that hold up well between visits, and for installed projects my maintenance and checkup service gives peace of mind that the property is being watched over while you are away. For homeowners who are here year round, the same care keeps a landscape looking effortless through every season.

Design First, With Installation and Care to Match

My main service is landscape design. For clients who would like me to see that design through, I also offer installation to bring the plan to life, and ongoing maintenance and checkups to keep it looking its best once it has settled in. These are the natural next steps after a design, handled by the same person who created it, so nothing gets lost between the plan and the planting. You are welcome to take a design on its own, or to have me carry it all the way through.

Serving Southwest Florida

I design landscapes for homeowners across Naples, Marco Island, Ave Maria, Bonita Springs, Golden Gate Estates, Fort Myers & Cape Coral, from everyday homes to luxury and estate properties, with installation and ongoing care available across the same region.
