Your Beautiful and Beneficial Garden awaits…
IMMERSIVE LANDSCAPE DESIGN
The emphasis on unlocking the beauty and wonder of nature. An understanding of the therapeutic and rejuvenating effects that well-designed outdoor spaces can have on people. Your design will contribute to the visual appeal of your space as well as your well-being & quality of life.
It's not just about creating a visually pleasing environment but also about fostering an experience that engages the senses and promotes a sense of tranquility and connection with the natural world.
The first step in your immersive landscape
Your Garden Assessment
A focused, on-site consultation designed to bring clarity, direction, and confidence to your outdoor space.
Your Garden Assessment is an opportunity for us to walk your property together and define what you truly want from your landscape. We’ll talk through how you want to use the space, what’s working, what isn’t, and where there is potential to elevate both beauty and function.
IMMERSIVE LANDSCAPE DESIGN
If you’re ready for a more comprehensive plan, the Garden Assessment naturally leads into our Immersive Landscape Design Experience.
Through a custom CAD Landscape Design, we translate your ideas into a detailed, step-by-step plan that you and your contractor can confidently execute from start to finish.

"Wendell is a good friend, and someone I admired even more as an entrepreneur when I learned about her incredible talent in landscape design. We live in The Fan, and have a small courtyard with an existing garden that needed some love. We of course hired Wendell! The unique thing about her is that she is able to walk into a space, any space whether it’s a huge project with acres of land, or a tiny courtyard in The Fan and immediately see what the space not only needs, but ultimately wants. She’s the garden whisperer. She had an immediate vision that just works. And I love that she continues to expand her knowledge and is leaning into sustainable planting in her design. She cares, deeply about what she recommends and what is good for the planet. And everything she touches turns out to be magic. "

"As I look out over the backyard, it is so clear that Wendell was able to capture both what we hoped it could be as well as broaden our conception as to what could be. It is our sanctuary, our nature preserve, our joy. Goldfinches feeding on blackeyed susans and coneflowers, dozens of different types of bees visiting the abelia. A firepit area nestled in the tall grasses. A calm space for pondering next to the fish pond waterfall. We gained several rooms with the completion of Wendell's creative vision. We remain grateful for her talents on a daily basis."
