On a Budget?
Thoughtful design is at the heart of successful gardens, even budget-conscious ones! Don't make the mistake of skimping on professional design when facing the many horticultural challenges of the Southwest desert region. The fact is, hiring a qualified garden designer is the first step toward a successful outcome.
Hiring an experienced pro to design your garden is a one-time investment in your property that pays dividends by taking the stress out of your project, saving you time and money, and creating an outdoor space that increases in beauty and value over the long term.
Professional, Independent Advice
Garden Solutions at Every Price Point
Here in the Las Vegas Valley, the reality is just because we like a plant at the nursery doesn't mean it will thrive where we want to put it! Soil, weather, existing plants, and microclimates (to name just a few factors) all play a role in how we select and site plants for success under challenging--and often unforgiving--Mojave Desert, urban heat-island conditions.
And just because a plant is available at a local nursery or garden center doesn't necessarily mean it is the most intelligent choice for Las Vegas spaces, or your unique outdoor space!
From the Designer's Notebook Blog and free seasonal Ezine, to personalized Consultation Services and Custom Design, Perennial Garden Consultants strives to assist Homeowners in achieving a beautiful, enjoyable and sustainable outdoor space in extreme Mojave Desert conditions!
