What's included
The Field
Browse plants by season, zone, and bloom time. Search, filter, and build your own list.
Bed designer
Map your beds and lay out plants to scale — see spacing, bloom times, and color combinations before you put a single thing in the ground.
Digest & yard calendar
A weekly almanac built around your exact plant list and zone — what to sow, cut, and watch for, week by week through the season.
Insects
Meet the bugs in your beds — pollinators, predators, and pests — and learn which ones to welcome.
Friend or Foe
A weed library to tell the keepers from the troublemakers before you pull the wrong thing.
Landscape consulting
We walk your yard, talk through your goals, and hand you a clear step-by-step plan — whether that's perennials, a cutting garden, raised beds, or all three. In-person or Zoom.
