Landscape Plan Companies in Portland Maine

“Five stars for Molly Scott. She created a delightful garden for my house in Southwest Harbor, ME. The front garden, which abuts up against my front windows, is a lovely design featuring curved granite pathways leading to a set of stone steps down an embankment with an area for a birdbath. It is full of perennials, many native, that bloom at different times during the summer. Plus she added some larger plants along the fence to screen a close by distraction, while allowing a full view of the harbor. In another area off the front she created a triangular planting area with 3 small trees and 5 flowing bushes that blends in with an existing nice view of a neighbors yard. It highlights a small piece of sculpture. She also improved on other areas of the grounds that needed work. Throughout, she was a pleasure to work with, listened to what i wanted and improved my initial ideas. She also helped me find a stone mason and landscape contractor to put the design into reality. I highly recommend her. She was a joy to work with.”

“This is long overdue. Three years ago, we underwent a complete front yard makeover with Ted Carter and his crew, installing granite and stone walkways, a stone wall and a large selection of bushes, trees and flowers which have completely transformed the appearance of our home. Since then, we have received countless compliments from neighbors and complete strangers will stop and view the lush gardens and walkways. We knew that we wanted to make a transformative change, but we had no idea of what that would be. Enter Ted Carter who articulated his vision of what the space could be, transforming the area into a peaceful, calming beautiful sanctuary. Ted was careful to integrate what the terrain would offer such as sun & shade, wind exposures, native plants, climate and soil grades, plant selection, water availability and even habitats that would support local wildlife (in our case a butterfly garden). Attention to the smallest detail like color, texture, form of plants and material were considered in a painstaking approach. Ted is truly a savant! Equally important was the implementation of his vision by his great team. His crew headed by Harry was very knowledgeable and passionate about their work. Any questions or suggestions were always earnestly addressed. A delight to work with! What was most telling was their reaction to an issue which developed about 2 years later. As a result of the new stone wall, we noticed a potential drainage issue (which actually hadn’t happened yet). Harry and his crew came back two years later and spent 4 days rebuilding the wall to prevent any future potential issues. And, at no cost! The pride of workmanship exhibited by Ted, Harry and his crew was truly exemplary!”

“We have about a quarter acre lot in Greater Portland where we've made some landscape moves, but needed help thinking about the long-term. We reached out to Peter for help and he came through in spades. We met in our yard and talked through what we had already done and loved and what we were struggling with. He was a terrific listener, asked thoughtful questions and riffed on some ideas on the spot. He then came up with a Concept Plan for us that included refinements to some of those ideas as well as others. It was exactly the guidance we needed to move ahead with more small projects moving forward while knowing we have an overall vision we are working toward.”
