Container gardens come in all shapes and sizes and are becoming more popular for their ease of maintenance and flexibility.

Container gardens come in all shapes and sizes and are becoming more popular for their ease of maintenance and flexibility. My container garden designs focus on creating a cohesive selection of up to six planted containers for one space such as along the front of the house, on a patio or deck, or around a fire pit area. Your container garden will be a curated pallet that will enhance your space and designed with intention, tailored to your space, home style and plant preferences.
Regardless of which specialty garden you choose, the design process will be similar. Following your 45-minute on-site consultation, I will provide a Client Brief that summarizes my recommendations and the plan or service we discussed, along with a price estimate. Once a contract is signed, I will do a site assessment and draw a concept plan for you to review prior to creating a final plan drawing. The final plan will include a full-color scaled drawing or sketch that shows the planting plan, layout, ornamental accents and anything else needed in the design. I will communicate with you throughout the design process.
If other steps are needed on the property--such as tagging any plants that need to be removed from the location or marking out a short paver path to be installed in the garden--the price for the overall design will be adjusted accordingly and I will prepare a new price estimate if needed.
For container gardens, I design the plant palette, order the containers and planting arrangements, and coordinate the delivery and placement of them according to the design. Large containers may need to be planted on-site. This is considered "installation" and is only provided for my container garden designs and currently only available for Kitsap County residents.
Additional design, planting and consultation services may be available on a case-by-case basis for an additional fee.

Welcome! The Curated Garden website is still under construction and will be fully published when I launch my design business in August 2026. Until then, please enjoy my gardening blog and other pages.
