Fairy Yardmother Landscape Design

Thank you for visiting my site. I enjoy bringing you pictures of gardens, plants, and ideas from sunny California. I love sharing after-photos that show how my landscape plans, plant lists and layouts come to life.
As a designer, I use plants to create drama, provide color and form, and compliment the architectural style of your home.
I strive to provide a buffer from sun, street, and neighbors while still fostering connections.
Inspired plant choices and site layout can make any space a success.
I am a Certified Watershed Wise Professional, with techniques to improve soil health and keep more water on your property.
I can help you makeover your patio, paths, planting areas, or entire property. I will consult with you, choose a look you love, and compose a plan and plant list to update your landscape, re-using what you already have wherever we can.
Each project is different because it is about making your space really shine.

Water-saving Idea

What a simple idea. Makes it so easy to use left-over water from the kitchen to water plants.
Anne Cusack / Los Angeles Times
Keep an attractive tea pot on the kitchen counter, and fill it with that half glass of water left behind by a guest, or any reasonably clean water that you might otherwise dump down the drain. Now you have enough water to water your houseplants! Brilliant.
