Garden Designing Process in Elmsford, NY
Legarden Designs follows a four-phase, customizable process for every garden design. The stages include:
Initial Conversation
During our first phone consultation, we’ll discuss your property and the specifics of your project. From there, we’ll schedule a more detailed property consultation at your convenience.
Property Review & Consultation
Every project begins with a thorough consultation and property assessment. We’ll address your needs and challenges, offering suggestions for seasonal highlights and color, and tips for improving the overall look and functionality of your Elmsford landscape. You’ll also learn how to divide, trim, or move plants to ensure they thrive. If you’d like to proceed with a more detailed design, we’ll create a comprehensive plan for your project.
Design Phase
Whether your project covers the entire property or focuses on a specific area, we’ll present you with a detailed, illustrated plan. This plan will include the layout of existing plants, garden bed designs, hardscaping elements (such as walkways, patios, and walls), and a recommended selection of trees, shrubs, perennials, and annuals. We’ll meet again to review the plan and make any necessary adjustments based on your feedback.
Installation Phase
Once the design is finalized, we’ll assemble the installation team and arrange a suitable time for the work to begin. We strive to source the highest quality plants at competitive prices. Legarden Designs will oversee the installation, ensuring that your plan is executed precisely according to your specifications, and will address any concerns that may arise. Our services include all aspects of garden and landscape installation, as well as stonework like paths, patios, and retaining walls. We also coordinate pool installation and maintenance.
