Fabulous gardens do not just happen.
They take assessment, planning and knowledge.
VVM Designs Landscape Consulting's ultimate goal is to make the client feel comfortable in the outdoor spaces of their home.
Whether that is by educating, completely redesigning or just some "refreshes" here and there, VVM Designs works with the client to create a space that is in tune with what the client wants, needs and dreams for the space not just what is in fashion, "green" or the latest fad.
A plan can be as complex as a landscape design with hardscape, grading, irrigation and planting specifics and budget or as simple as a list of plants to add to a garden or tasks to improve the space they have.

Since neither my husband nor myself are particulary knowledgeable in regards to plants and had found our large, rather plain yard too overwhelming to develop ourselves.
We hired Carol to develop a landscape that would take into consideration both our lack of knowledge and aptitude while giving us a place to 'Escape to, not from!' From the initial conversation, through the design development and final design, Carol's attention to detail and expert advice produced an end result we couldn't be happier with!
