Landscape design & install in Sarasota.

Sarasota expects design — not just plants in the ground. We deliver a real plan on paper, then install it: hardscape, planting, irrigation, and lighting as one project.

Sarasota is a design-led market, and that suits how we work. Projects here lean architectural: structured planting against modern facades, courtyard gardens that read clean year-round, travertine that carries the indoor floor line outside. We draw the plan first — a 2D layout and planting list, renderings on larger jobs — so you approve the yard before a shovel touches it.

Closer to the bayfront and the keys, plant selection is about salt and wind as much as looks; inland toward Palmer Ranch and Fruitville it's sun, soil, and irrigation coverage. Every Sarasota estimate is written, tied to a scope, and confirmed after the free site visit.

Serving Sarasota — downtown, Gulf Gate, Palmer Ranch, Fruitville, and out to Lakewood Ranch — with crews in Sarasota County every week.

Sarasota questions.

Do you provide a design before installation in Sarasota?

Always. Every Sarasota project gets a 2D plan and planting list — renderings on larger projects — with the estimate in writing before the build is scheduled. Design comes back within 2–10 days of the site visit.

Can you design for a modern or minimalist Sarasota home?

Yes — structured, architectural planting is a specialty: clean lines, sculptural specimens, restrained palettes, and lighting that makes the design work at night as well as noon.

How long does a Sarasota landscape renovation take?

A refresh runs 1–3 days on site, a mid-size renovation 4–10 days, and a full tear-out with new hardscape 2–4 weeks. Most builds schedule about two weeks after design approval.
