PHILOSOPHY
Betterly Garden Design's focus is to create lush, vibrant spaces where people can relax and unwind. We are passionate about turning outdoor spaces into a natural retreat and a place you will always want to be by transforming your underutilized space into a place where you can connect with nature, unwind and feel rejuvenated.
-
Restoring The Environment: Our main focus is to help restore the environment with native plants.
-
Water Wise Gardens: Designing gardens that require little supplemental water is a primary focus at Betterly Garden Design. By using drip irrigation systems and choosing the right plant for the right place we are able to help conserve water.
-
Low Maintenance Gardens: Our informal garden designs require little maintenance. Seasonal garden visits allow for the garden to take on a wildly maintained look that mimics nature by encouraging flowers to reseed and plants to live out their full life cycle. We encourage our clients to form a relationship with their gardens and if desired teaching clients how to care for and grow with their ever changing landscape.
