Garden Designers in Leyden
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 30, 2013
“I am an architect in Berkshire County and I often find that my clients need a Landscape Architect to complete the design work for their projects. Rob Akroyd of Greylock Design Associates is always my first choice for Landscape design. He has demonstrated time and time again an ability to listen to his clients and to distill what they tell him into clear design goals and preferences. His Landscapes exhibit a creativity that, when coupled with his expansive knowledge of plant material and landscape elements, never fails to please. His design work is not just beautiful, it successfully fulfills my clients needs and desires while complimenting my architecture. I highly recommend Rob Akroyd to anyone who is seeking Landscape Design services.”
Environmental Design & Landscaping LLC

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 31, 2017
“Environmental Design & Landscaping did a great job on our patio project. Tom was on-site everyday. He came up with good design ideas for our space. He and his helpers worked quickly and were very skilled. His company did a fantastic job with clean up when the project was completed. He was also very responsive when we asked him to come back and handle addition work relating to the project. We recommended him to our son at his home and the results were equally great. Highly recommend his company.”
Andrew Zema's Landscaping, Inc.
Garden Designers in Leyden
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 21, 2016
“It was immediately apparent after meeting Andrew that we wanted to work with him for our Japanese Garden installation. His knowledge of the Berkshires and the plants that work well here is unparalleled. His understanding of practical and beautiful garden design is exceptional. His own work, and that of his team is of the highest possible standard. During the installation, we watched Andrew spend 20 minutes find the perfect placement for a large rock - we didn't understand what the fuss was about - now we realize that that rock serves as a seat for us within the garden and provides a spectacular view of the pond and waterfalls. Our garden is an oasis that brings joy whenever we see it. Uniquely, immediately after finishing the garden it looked like it had always been there - which over the past four years has only become more beautiful. I cannot recommend Andrew and his team highly enough. It is a decision that you will not live to regret.”
Princeton Scapes Inc

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 26, 2013
“We've used Princeton Scapes for regular lawn maintenance and a large flowerbed/landscape project. They are professional, knowledgeable, and very patient with this inexperienced gardener. Coming home and seeing my lawn on the days they visit always makes me feel like inviting the neighbors over for a cookout.”
Kathleen Bassett Gardens

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 8, 2014
“I hired Kathy to remove old, overgrown existing bushes and plantings and design a new garden and walkway border in front of my house.She came up with a beautiful plan that utilized low maintenance plants that were indigenous to the area and could be maintained with organic gardening methods.Since I live near a salt marsh,I did not want herbicides and pesticides used on my property in case of run-off into the ocean.I gave her my favorite colors and flower suggestions and she did the rest.She was very hardworking and came when scheduled so I felt she was very reliable.Her fees were fairly priced and I found her to be a pleasure to work with.I have recommended her to several of my neighbors and friends.”
Garden Designs by Jacqueline, Llc.

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 18, 2013
“Last summer, Jacqueline helped me design a large landscape installation. She made the process fun, educational, and easy. Her computer software readily translates ideas into images. She didn't sell me a generic design, but one which reflects me and my tastes. Rich Levine of Vision Landscaping (another great company) performed the installation. Following her design, he created a beautiful backyard garden. I was so satisfied with their work, that this year, I used them again to design and install a front yard project. The results have been equally as nice. I would give them both high praise and recommend their services to others. The cost below represents Jacqueline's share of the two projects.”
Rutland Nurseries, Inc.
Garden Designers in Leyden
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 9, 2022
“Rutland Nurseries completed 2 projects for us, 2 walkways and an enclosed patio with a rounded sitting wall (Unilock®). There were many positives to having work done by the crew from Rutland Nurseries, among them are: Andy was the designer and supervisor of both projects. He was very easy to work with and patient throughout the planning process. He made suggestions but did not force his opinions on us. He was present almost daily throughout the projects. In addition, the workers arrived on time each morning and came daily until the project was completed. They were respectful of our property and the neighbor’s yard as well. At the end of each day their materials and tools were stored. The workers were personable and had Rutland Nurseries logos on their shirts. We are extremely happy with the work that was completed and would highly recommend Rutland Nurseries if you are thinking of walkways or patios!”

“Tom Benjamin and Wellnesscapes Design has provided exceptional and outstanding service in designing our residential property. From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, he was very attentive, responsive, professional, and willing to work collaboratively. He provided creative ideas that completely transformed our outdoor space. The plants he chose are healthy, thriving, and beautiful with (at our request) native plants taking precedence. He also provided useful advice on how to maintain our new garden. Overall, we are extremely satisfied with the work Tom Benjamin and Wellnesscapes Design has done and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented, skilled, experienced landscape architect and designer.”

“Julie has been helping me to develop and tending my gardens for several years. She is knowledgeable, creative, collaborative, punctual, strong of body (very essential for this 64-year-old!) and very good at communicating via phone or email to arrange and rearrange schedules, which she does promptly and clearly. In addition, she is just plain fun to work with out there in the garden! I couldn't ask for more. Randi Stein”

Landscape Architect or Designer FAQs
The duration varies based on the projectʼs complexity and size. A small to medium-sized garden might take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months, from initial consultation to completed installation. Larger projects, especially those requiring significant structural changes, could take several months. A detailed timeline should be discussed with your garden designer early in the process.
Garden Designers select materials based on the siteʼs conditions, the projectʼs budget, and aesthetic goals. They consider the sustainability, durability, and maintenance requirements of materials. Staying informed about the latest trends through professional development courses, industry publications, and networking with peers ensures that designers can offer contemporary and innovative designs that still meet the timeless principles of garden design.
Homeowners should identify their needs, preferences, and budgets before consulting with a garden designer. Collecting inspirational images or creating a mood board can help convey your vision. Additionally, understanding your gardenʼs conditions, such as soil type and sun exposure, and having an idea of desired plants or features, prepares you for a more productive initial consultation.
Common challenges, like poor soil, limited space, or awkward layouts, are addressed through innovative solutions. Designers might amend the soil, introduce raised beds for better drainage, utilize vertical planting for small spaces, or create focal points to distract from less appealing areas. Their expertise allows for creative problem-solving that blends functionality with beauty.
Yes, Garden Designers often implement sustainability practices such as selecting native plants that require less water and are more resistant to pests, implementing rainwater harvesting systems, using permeable paving materials to improve water absorption, and employing organic gardening practices. These approaches contribute to creating environmentally responsible gardens that are both beautiful and sustainable.
Garden Designers can certainly work with existing landscapes to enhance or completely transform them. This can involve redefining spaces, introducing new plant species, and incorporating new features while retaining elements that work well. Working with an existing garden often requires a keen eye for potential and creativity to integrate the new with the old seamlessly.
