This client had an old Victorian house in Wayne with three enormous Japanese Hollies that had been sheared into perfectly round balls for at least the past 50 years. They covered the entire front of the house, totally obscuring the beautiful stonework of the house. Needless to say, the first thing we did was to…

These folks had a brick patio with very overgrown and weedy borders. They wanted a fresh look with a water feature. After cleaning up the overgrown weeds on the border of the patio, we replanted with site-appropriate shrubs and perennials. Then we began working on the additional water feature. We used the existing timber retaining…

2017 Backyard Project Last year, we created a rear pathway out of irregular flagstone for this client. In addition, we planted and added a pondless waterfall. These elements were tied in with their new deck. They were so pleased that this year they asked us to do some additional work on the front of their…

This client wanted a sitting/patio area near an old growth Maple in her rear yard. This was a simple operation of building up the gravel and screening base so as not to disturb the roots of the old tree. These were collared by 1-2 man-sized coping rocks. Then irregular flagstone was brought in and custom…

We were approached by a representative of the Berwyn Veteran’s Association to bid on creating a memorial with four kiosks commemorating all the veterans who served in all foreign and domestic conflicts from the French & Indian wars to the present. After we won the bid, among several other companies, we followed the basic design with…

Replacing an Old Retaining Wall These Berwyn clients had an older concrete block retaining wall off their drive. The wall held back an elevated garden which had become overgrown. They liked what we had done several years earlier by transforming their concrete block patio by overlaying it with natural irregular flagstone, thereby blending their outdoor…

This Merion Station couple live in a charming cottage on a property in Montgomery County.  Their location had several water drainage challenges. We began by redoing their narrow stepping stone front walkway.  We created an irregular flagstone walkway that was wider with an inviting flare at the front stoop and the driveway. Next, we removed…

These Chester County clients were unhappy with their concrete paver walkway which they ‘inherited’ when they bought their house.  Their existing landscape had several great elements, but many plants were improperly placed based on sun exposure and the current deer population in Berwyn. We began their job by lifting the concrete paver walkway and replaced it…

These clients in Malvern, Chester County have lived with their outdated and overgrown front landscape for approximately 20 years. Many plants were not site appropriate and had been sheared repeatedly creating a very artificial, boxy and sterile look. After ripping out the majority of their front planting we began by improving the soil with a…
