Peach Landscape Designs provides residential homeowners with a collaborative and creative design service to help you plan a natural garden to attract and support native pollinators, birds, and wildlife … and look great too.

With years of experience in landscape design and project installation, and with waterwise and naturescaping training, Peach Landscape Designs offer a variety of services to match your needs: one-to-two hour consultations, one-day-design packages or full landscape design. Call today to talk more about how we can help you create a beautiful and naturescaped garden.
We offer a full range of landscape design services with a focus on native plant design and rain gardens. We create beautiful and sustainable outdoor environments featuring bioswales, drought-tolerant plantings, and permeable paving. Relax and entertain in a well-designed outdoor living room, while enjoying year-round harvests with a bountiful edible landscape. We also specialize in creating custom natural playscapes for both residential and commercial clients. We offer a no-cost initial site visit and a flexible approach to your unique project. That might include a comprehensive landscape master plan – a whole-site design for existing and new construction, or a targeted renovation plan that incorporates some new features and rejuvenates what’s already there. We provide custom design of outdoor kitchens, arbors, fire pits, raised garden beds, and more.
