As a residential Palo Alto landscaping specialist and landscape designer, Lisa creates a 'Conceptual Landscape Plan' for her clients which includes; hardscape (paths, patios, arbors, water feature, bbq kitchens, fireplace, pool, etc.), plants, and lighting. This complete and colorful plan provides each client with a clear idea of their own unique San Jose landscape design. Drought tolerant plants are encouraged, such as: California Natives, Australian, South African, Chilean, and Mediterranean plants. The plan is free hand drawn to 1/8 or 1/4 inch scale. All design work is a bid-able document. Lisa also refers her clients to reputable licensed landscape contractors to help complete their landscaping in San Jose.
Each prospective client is encouraged to prepare for the initial meeting by:
1) Purchasing Sunset Western Garden Book and
Sunset Western Landscaping Book.
2) Taging 5 -10 photographs of desired gardens from Sunset Western Landscaping Book or books of your choice.
3) Creating a list of plant likes and dislikes.
4) Thinking about how you want your garden to function?
5) Thinking about a budget.
6) Calling references.
