In this expansive, sun-drenched garden in Woodside, the homeowners established the structural framework and turned to us for planting design. Inspired by the client’s upbringing in Hawaii, the palette evokes a tropical sensibility while remaining water-wise. Lavender, kangaroo paw, and kniphofia provide vibrant seasonal color, while arbutus, sage, protea, and carex form a lush green backdrop as they come into bloom.

In Their Words
"It's been terrific working with Christel on our landscape design. She has great design sense and ability to articulate the details and reasoning behind her design & plant choices. She listens well, has helped us weigh the pros/cons of some of our ideas, is detailed oriented, and follows through on her commitments in a timely manner. We look forward to experiencing the fruits of her design labor once we get started on the planting phase. Definitely contact Christel for your landscape design needs!"
