Clients have brought me in to:

• Repot plants that have outgrown their homes

• Handle weekly watering and feeding while they travel or focus elsewhere

• Perform monthly health check-ups to catch issues early

• Offer placement advice based on light, ease of access, and aesthetics

• Propagate favorites to share or expand a collection

Here are some of the ways I’ve helped people care for their gardens:

• Relocated shrubs to better-suited spaces in the yard

• Pruned and deadheaded with care, focusing on selective cuts to support plant health and shape

• Offered corrective pruning for shrubs recovering from harsh or improper cuts

• Identified existing plantings for new homeowners

• Designed and planted seasonal containers to add color and structure

• Small weeding projects

• Selection and application of appropriate fertilizer for soil and plant health

• Set up and handled regular watering during busy seasons or travel

The plants are already the experts—but some of my clients have asked for guidance as they learn to care for them. I offer instruction in:

• Choosing proper placement for indoor and outdoor plants

• Identifying existing plants in a new-to-you landscape

• Repotting, planting, pruning, and watering techniques to build confidence and skill

Whether you're a beginner or looking to deepen your understanding, I'm happy to teach what I know.
