Featured Reviews for Garden Designers in Solana Beach

Kathy Henry Exterior Design
Garden Designers in Solana Beach
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 15, 2015
“Bloom Garden design transformed our dusty lot into amazing living spaces. Her knowledge of landscape design and plant selection were key to setting up a unique kitchen garden using galvanized feeding troughs for raised planting beds, a dog and kid friendly grassy play area, and a beautiful courtyard and entryway with lots of WOW factor. Kathy truly made our house a home! I highly recommend Bloom Garden Design for your landscape needs.”
Revolution Landscape
Garden Designers in Solana Beach
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 5, 2016
“We have used Revolution Landscape for 3 projects over the last 5 years (a steep hillside; removal of grass and installation of a pond and raised garden beds and shaded deck/arbor in back yard; and turf removal/water-wise redesign of front yard). We also use them for regular landscape maintenance. We never spent much time out in or had much interest in the landscaping of our small suburban yard until Revolution inspired us. We now thoroughly enjoy our many fruit trees, our fresh garden vegetables, and relaxing on our side deck listening to the little waterfall and enjoying a glass of wine. They are attentive, listen well to budget concerns, and give really educated advice on plant selection in addition to being realistic about schedules and project completion. The crew is professional, friendly, and responsive.”

“Outstanding experience from start to finish. We told him what we had envisioned for our landscape design and he made it a reality, with practical and creative additions. He was a gentleman from start to finish and stayed available to us throughout the entire design, revision, and construction process. Would strongly recommend him to anyone and have referred him to many friends, neighbors and colleagues.”
Envy Landscape Design Inc.

“After admiring a neighbor's new driveway and entry several years ago, we met Petr & Honza, owners of Envy Landscape Design, Inc., who had done the work. Since then, they have completed three projects for us. The first would have been a plain stucco wall without Petr's eye as an architect. We now have a beautiful wall that includes wooden slats mixed in with the stucco. The design fits in with our pre-existing entry and a new wooden gate to our side yard, which Petr designed. Our wall has received rave reviews from our neighbors. The second project was an outdoor kitchen, which has become our favorite place to hang out--with friends or not, and while cooking on the grill or not. It is unique, with wonderful natural materials, designed by Petr. Our most recent project was a new driveway, entry to our home and front yard. We now have curb appeal, with a fountain and colorful, drought-tolerant trees and plants, which are watered by a drip irrigation system. The materials used make for a fresh and modern look, while repeating some of the materials from our backyard, giving continuity from front to back. It is so beautiful that I call their work "art by the yard." Petr & Honza are trustworthy, dependable and hard working. We enjoyed their humor, too, and miss seeing them.”
Torrey Pines Landscape Co., Inc
Garden Designers in Solana Beach
Average rating: 4 out of 5 starsOctober 8, 2014
“The project was to supply landscaping for the area around a new pool. Torrey Pines (TPLC) was suggested by the pool contractor after an earlier recommended Landscaper proved too inflexible. TPLC provided a plan and was happy to make adjustment to meet our requirements. They were a joy to work with and worked well with the pool company as well. The results were so pleasing that I hired them to redo most of the rest of my landscaping which they did equally well. They provide a high quality service and charge accordingly, but, I believe, fairly,”
GCLA Landscape Design

“We hired Gabe to create landscape plans for our front and backyard. We had general ideas about what we wanted, but did not know how to implement them or what materials to use. Gabe was able to take our ideas and turn it into a beautiful design, down to the bushes and plants. Gabe even added additional details, such as a paved sitting area and shrub barrier. We are very excited to see our design turned into reality.”
Groundswell Landscaping

“Nathan did a wonderful job with our landscaping project. We were looking for an efficient plan, that had contemporary lines which was still warm and inviting. Nathan delivered on the designs. He did a great job listening to our list of requests and his work came in on time and budget. Nathan and his team were also incredibly pleasant and professional to work with. They really thought a lot about our project and continued to refine and improve on the design and final landscaping throughout the process. It's also been wonderful, that he has continued to help with on going maintenance.”
Eco-Greenscape
Garden Designers in Solana Beach
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 21, 2016
“Our neighbor used Eco-Greenscape and we liked the outcome, so we decided to hire them to install a front courtyard, drought tolerant plants, drip system and drainage in our yard. They said the project would take four to five weeks and it did. We LOVE the way the project turned out! David designed everything so perfectly. He placed every boulder, olive tree, pot and tiny plant in the best location. His crew did beautiful work on the stucco wall with a rock top and paid attention to every last detail. The custom wooden gate looks amazing. Now people drive by and stop to take pictures of our house. David's design shows he can turn the ordinary into extraordinary! Just today, a couple stopped my husband while he was cleaning the garage and asked for Eco-greenscape's phone number and took more pictures. We gave the last of at least seven business cards to the plumber who was here yesterday. We are very happy customers!”

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.
