3 \ Plant Palette and Planting Design
We begin the design work by building a Plant Palette based on the site conditions inherent to your garden space. For this document, we choose plants that will thrive under your site conditions, and ones which will rarely need additional watering once established. Once appropriate plants are chosen, a detailed planting design is created. This is where the plants are chosen for the project, and 'placed' in the design. Focus is placed on adding beauty and ecological diversity, in addition to seasonal color, structure, and form for a garden that can provide four seasons of interest.
