Woodinville Garden Bed Design Services

Are you dreaming of a garden that looks absolutely fabulous without consuming all your free time? You’ve come to the right spot! Our mission is to craft exquisite designs that dazzle year-round while allowing you to kick back and enjoy your weekends. We specifically cater our designs to the distinct climate of Woodinville, balancing those soggy winters with sun-soaked summers to create a landscape that’s both stunning and practical.


What’s the Problem?

Feeling overwhelmed by your current garden beds? You’re not alone! Here’s what we often encounter:

  • Disheveled beds with an uncoordinated mix of plants lacking harmony and structure.
  • Plants in the wrong spots—sun-loving beauties stuck in shady corners, while shade-loving greens roast in the sun.
  • Weeds running rampant and soil that’s either a muddy pit in winter or a rock-solid mess in summer.
  • High water bills from thirsty plants paired with outdated irrigation that barely does the job.
  • Curb appeal confusion with no clear strategy to keep your HOA happy.

Our Design Approach (No Fluff, Just What Works)

Here’s how we turn your garden dreams into reality:

  • Right plant, right place: We assess sun exposure, wind patterns, drainage, and the plants’ mature size to select the ideal flora.
  • Evergreen foundation (60–70%) combined with seasonal color (30–40%) for dynamic interest all year.
  • Block planting: Arranging groups of 3–5+ plants for a modern, cohesive look—say goodbye to polka-dot gardens!
  • Defined lines and edges: Smooth curves and clean borders with 4” cut edges or steel edging to keep mulch in and grass out.
  • Soil health first: We prioritize rich, healthy soil with compost enrichments and aeration, topped with 2–3” of mulch (never volcano-mulch!).

Plant Palettes That Thrive Here

Here are some of our favorite plant pairings that thrive in Woodinville’s unique environment:

  • Dry Sun Areas: lavender, rosemary, euphorbia, santolina, sedum, feather reed grass, ceanothus ‘Victoria’, rockrose.
  • Part Shade / Acidic Beds: rhododendron/azalea, pieris, camellia, sarcococca (sweet box), sword fern, Japanese forest grass, heuchera.
  • Coastal/Windy Spots: escallonia, wax myrtle, sea thrift, hebes, spiraea, olearia.
  • Pollinator-Friendly: salvia ‘Hot Lips’, penstemon, echinacea, aster, yarrow, catmint.
  • Winter Interest: hellebore, red-twig dogwood, osmanthus, witch hazel, heather.

Interested in going native? We’ve got you covered with vine maple, kinnikinnick, Oregon grape, red-flowering currant, sword fern, and a variety of bunchgrasses.


Our Annual Maintenance Plan (Your Yard’s Routine)

We believe in keeping your yard thriving and vibrant with our annual maintenance plan, which includes:

  • Weed suppression: Scheduled hand-weeding and targeted pre-emergent treatments as needed.
  • Mulch refresh: Maintaining that 2–3” layer of mulch to block light and retain moisture effectively.
  • Structural pruning: Timely cuts for shape and airflow—no more hedge-ball look for your beloved maples!
  • Soil care: Compost top-dress and micro-aeration to keep your soil in peak condition.

Our mission is simple: low-maintenance landscaping for you, resulting in fewer headaches between visits and less work on your part.


Service Cadences (Pick What Fits)

Choose a maintenance schedule that aligns with your lifestyle:

  • Quarterly: Spring and fall deep cleans, plus two tune-ups to keep things in check.
  • Bi-Monthly: The perfect balance for most Woodinville yards looking for regular attention.
  • (Have a brand-new installation or battling heavy weeds? We can start with monthly visits and taper down as your garden settles in!)

What Annual Maintenance Includes

Here’s what you can look forward to with our annual maintenance:

  • Defined bed edges with freshly cut lines for a polished appearance.
  • Targeted weed control and spot-mulching where it’s needed most.
  • Seasonal pruning to keep plants healthy and thriving.
  • Regular health checks for pests, rot, and other concerns, along with clear next steps.

Why Annual Maintenance Matters

  • Weeds don’t gain a foothold—fewer seeds now mean less labor later.
  • Plants flourish—better structure today leads to fewer drastic cuts tomorrow.
  • Beds look sharp—defined edges and fresh mulch can transform the overall look of your landscape.
