Gardens for the
Northern Folk

As soon as possible!

Custom containers should be booked the season prior so we can ensure you deliveries are on time.

Cleanups for spring start booking in late February/March, and cleanups for fall start booking in August.

Any work done during the summer can be booked as you wish, however, start times will be scheduled 7-14 days from the initial quote.

Absolutely. We always like to view the space so I can give you a more accurate idea of pricing.

Should you move forward with the work, there is no charge for the consultation.

If you are looking to do the work yourself and just need a little guidance, we am happy to provide a consultation for $50.

We will only help you choose plants that will thrive in your space. Calgary can be a finnicky climate for gardeners. Let's not make it harder than it already is.

Each seasonal container includes a custom mix of fresh/faux plant material (depending on the season), plus accessories to add that extra pop. Spring and fall displays usually last a couple of months, while summer and winter hold up for around four. You’re welcome to use your own pots—we’ll either create a drop-in arrangement or install on-site, depending on the size—or we can source containers for you (pricing will vary by size).

We also offer seasonal maintenance to keep your containers looking their best! We’ll agree on a schedule that fits your needs (usually every 1–2 weeks) and handle things like deadheading, pruning, and fertilizing. Should you decide to sign up for a pre-paid maintenance package throughout the summer, you will receive a weekly service at a discounted price.

If you sign up for custom potted decor for all four seasons, you will receive 10% off your decor for each season.

Softscaping includes work in the actual garden. Weeding, mulching, pruning, deadheading, planting, restoring old garden beds, creating new garden beds, and help with grass restoration.

We know a great yard design includes decks, fences, patios, retaining walls, and concrete. Should you decide to include any of these items in any of your projects, we are happy to recommend some of our favourite landscapers in the city and work with them to bring your vision to life.

Absolutely! This is one of the jobs we do the most of during the spring/summer season.

There are so many established gardens out there, but life happens, and sometimes the gardens can get away from you.

We will happily bring your gardens back to life so you can enjoy them rather stress about them.

Only if you want to be! Each client has a different preference. Some like to be out there with us, and others just want to get the work done. We leave that up to you, but you do not need to be home while we are working.

We sure can! We work with many fantastic vendors around the city and always strive to source the best plant material we can.

If there are items we can help you find, we would be happy to get them for you, or point you in the right direction.

Of course! Our goal is to create gardens that don't overwhelm you. Everyone experiences different circumstances throughout life, and their capacity to care for a garden varies.

Just because you are busy, doesn't mean you can't enjoy a beautiful outdoor space. The goal is to create a garden for you to enjoy as many days as possible. There is beauty to be found in even the simplest of gardens.

We will bag and remove garden waste from our projects. Many clients graciously offer their green bin to assist with the cleanup, but if this is not available, we will remove the waste.

We will prune and shape any shrubs during the cleanup. Trees will be cleaned up if required. This means the removal of any suckers around the base, as well as as trimming any branches at are encroaching on other plants, entryways, or pathways.

Any major tree or shrub pruning or removal should be done by an ISA certified arborist, which we are always happy to recommend.

This is subjective to the needs of each client, however, most of the work we do is adding indoor plants to spaces in order to liven up an area.

Whether that be an office space, or your very own living room. We will assess the vision of each client, and then recommend and install indoor plants that will work in that particular environment.

Maintenance can be added if the client wishes, and would be the same pricing as the rest of our maintenance packages.
