We provide detailed cost breakdowns during our design phase, so you’ll know exactly what you’re investing in before any work begins.
Mount Hermon’s Mediterranean climate and California’s water restrictions require strategic plant selection. We specialize in drought-tolerant natives like California poppies, lavender, rosemary, and ornamental grasses that thrive with minimal water once established.
For year-round color, we incorporate succulents, Mediterranean herbs, and carefully selected perennials that bloom in different seasons. These plants not only survive our dry summers but actually look better with less water than traditional landscaping.
Our plant selections are also chosen for Mount Hermon’s specific microclimate—we account for your property’s elevation, sun exposure, and any coastal influence to ensure every plant thrives in its specific location.
Drainage is critical for Mount Hermon’s sloped properties, and we’ve solved these challenges on hundreds of hillside homes. Our approach starts with comprehensive site analysis to identify water flow patterns and potential problem areas.
We design integrated solutions that might include French drains, retaining walls, terraced planting areas, and strategic grading to direct water away from your home’s foundation. The key is making these functional elements look like natural parts of your landscape design.
Our drainage solutions also prevent soil erosion that can damage your investment over time. We use techniques like bioswales and permeable hardscaping that manage water runoff while maintaining the beauty of your outdoor space.
Yes, we manage all permit requirements and HOA approvals as part of our comprehensive service. Mount Hermon has specific guidelines for landscaping projects, especially regarding drainage, retaining walls, and tree removal or planting.

This is one of the biggest advantages of working with experienced local professionals—we handle the bureaucracy so you don’t have to navigate permit offices or HOA meetings. Everything is managed for you.
