Seasonal color design to maximize the beauty of your garden while meeting today's important green standards. Hewett's Landscape works on all types of design and installation.

If you are planning on selling your home, staging your garden will maximize the sale potential. During a consultation, we can devise ways to best show off your property while staying within your budget. We are a visual society and first impressions are everything. Many home "shoppers" drive by to assess the property and few things are more impressive than a lovely entry with bright flowers either in containers or along your garden walk.

The sprinkler systems generally used to water your plants to keep them healthy are inefficient. Think about how many times you have seen water running down the sidewalk from poorly placed sprinklers, wind blowing the water meant for the garden, or sprinklers that run too long for current weather conditions. Not only is this a waste of precious water, it is an unnecessary strain on your budget.

Low flow irrigation systems deliver water in limited and correct quantities to the right locations so it can do the most good. The efficiency of low flow systems is shown by the fact in some areas of the country during the heat of summer, low flow watering in the only method allowed for watering gardens. And a properly installed irrigation system will save you hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars through the years.

Patios, gates, walkways, etc. (The asymetrical arbor on the left, below, and far left included recycled bricks for a small patio. The arbor will be home to grapes and grafted pears.)
