FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Questions? I've Got You Covered.
Every garden and every homeowner is different. Here are answers to some of the questions I hear most often before we begin designing a custom garden.
How much does a custom garden cost?
Every project is different. Pricing depends on the size of the containers, plant selection, number of arrangements, and whether you’re providing your own containers. I’ll discuss your goals and provide a clear quote before any work begins.
Can you use containers I already own?
Absolutely. Many clients already have containers they love. If they’re suitable for planting, I’m happy to design and install a completely new arrangement using your existing pots.
What happens after I contact you?
Once you contact me, we’ll talk about your space, your goals, your style, budget, and maintenance preferences. If we’re a good fit, I’ll create a custom plan tailored specifically for your home and lifestyle before any work begins.
Will my garden come back every year?
That depends on the plants selected. Some designs feature seasonal annuals for continuous color, while others incorporate perennials, shrubs, or houseplants that can provide beauty for years with proper care.
How much maintenance will my garden require?
I’ll recommend plants based on the amount of care you want to provide. Whether you’re looking for something low-maintenance or enjoy tending your plants regularly, I’ll design with your lifestyle in mind.
How long does the design process take?
Most custom garden projects move from consultation to installation within a few weeks, depending on seasonal availability, project size, and scheduling. I’ll keep you informed throughout the process so you’ll always know what to expect.
Do you only work in the Kansas City area?
I primarily serve homeowners throughout the Kansas City metro area. If you’re outside that area, feel free to reach out—we can discuss whether your project is a good fit.
