MARJORIE HARRIS GARDENS

Designing with Plants:  it’s what I do and it’s a radical concept.

I can make your garden better. No matter what shape it’s in, by designing with plants, by re-purposing what you already have, I can make your garden into a bit of Eden.
I work with wonderful people and we can pretty much do everything you want:  from a French drain, to screens and fences, walkways, paths and raised stone beds.

Here are the packages for winter 2009/10.

Package 1:  Beat Winter By Getting a Jump Start on Spring.
This is the time of year to review what’s in your garden and what’s wrong with it. You can come and look at my garden, and then I’ll come to your garden for a walk about. I’ll get to know what you like and hate, and where you’d like to see your garden grow.
I’ll conduct a fall garden review and create a practical plan for rollout early in spring 2010.  You can come and look at my mature garden and see some of the plants that grow well here. I’d like to get to know your likes and dislikes and we will work on future options and a timed plan for spring of 2010.

Package 2:  Bring the Garden Inside for Winter.
Have you got containers, window boxes and planters that should be perked up to give you yet another season of pleasure? Well let me help  you out with planting, plant suggestions and sourcing material. We can do this together or I’ll get my team to help me out. There’s no point in having something boring inside or outside your house. You need originality and that’s what we’ve got.

Package 3:  Gardens for Balconies, Rooftops and condos.
You don’t need a large backyard to have a satisfying garden to bring year-round pleasure.  We’ve done balcony gardens on the 40th floor and one with that will bring you pleasure all year round. We’ve done gardens on the 40th floor whipped by wind and on a north facing patch with no sun.  Something can be done with these spaces that both graceful and will give you the need hit of nature designed to make you feel so much better.
