About Us
Report
Growing up in Louisville at the boundary of a subdivision surrounded by farmland and woods I was lucky to spend countless hours in all seasons surrounded by nature, exploring caves and creeks. It certainly gave me a strong bond to wildlife and the environment. I was also fortunate to experience a childhood of world travel which I have continued in my adult life.
Garden Consultation
Report
Richard Miller will walk through your garden with you, identifying and evaluating the health of your trees, plants, shrubs and perennials. He will evaluate plant vigor, site conditions and assess disease and pest problems along with drainage issues and plant placement. He will offer solutions and advice on organic and natural approaches to the problems your plants may be experiencing.

Installation
Report
The second pillar of our Landscape Construct is Installation. As with the other two, many contractors have taken short cuts over time and created an atmosphere of reduced quality by not paying adequate attention to "the small stuff"; details that may require more time and effort but will yield a superior result that holds up better under stress and over time.
Maintenance
Report
The third pillar of our triumvirate covers the follow-up and on-going care plants require to become established and thrive. Once a plant is in the ground and mulched, the name of the game is WATERING. While it is true that more plants succumb to over-watering, the initial stage of acclimating can require close attention to watering; a little extra water can be a good thing, at least in the beginning.
