Planting FAQ
What is the best time of year to plant?
Fall and spring are ideal for planting in the Bay Area. The mild temperatures and natural rainfall help plants establish strong root systems. However, we can plant year-round with proper irrigation management.
Do you specialize in drought-tolerant plants?
Yes, we design beautiful, water-wise landscapes using California natives, Mediterranean species, and other drought-tolerant varieties that thrive in our climate while reducing water consumption.
What warranty do you offer on plants?
We offer a one-year warranty on all installed plants when proper care guidelines are followed. We also offer optional maintenance programs to ensure your garden thrives long-term.
