  • Climbing up and spilling over February 21, 2012
    Plants that climb to the sky and and plants that spill to the earth are very dramatic performers in the garden and some of my favorite flora to incorporate into a space.

You let it slumber through the winter months, knowing it will emerge well-rested and stronger next spring. You hope the same for yourself. When your favorite […]

Graphic Design

As a graphic, web, and garden designer, I love to work with clients to create a beautiful effect that clearly communicates the intended message. Much of my design is influenced by the garden and nature, as all design is, I believe.
