Services List:
-
Sample Garden Design and Notes - Want to have a better understanding of the process? Here are some of the forms used in your garden design.
- The Coaching package - includes a review of your needs (you are sent a worksheet prior to the appointment to complete to guide you through the thought process) and a walk through your garden/yard. (This can be virtual with photgraphs of your yard.) Some clients just want to ask me all of their gardening/landscaping questions and we do sort of a personalized Q & A session! I also coach the DIY Gardener through their gardening projects.
-
The Design package - includes a design and plant recommendation list created specifically for you. In addition to the time and service listed above, I go back to my office and hand draw your site and place recommended plantings. Your plant list is very thorough including, sun, water and care needs.
-
The Installation package includes the Design package and oversight on installation. Since I do not install any plantings or hardscape I work with reputable landscaping companies who do. I will work hand in hand with them, making sure they install the entire design or just the components you want to do at this time. I communicate the vision, double check the order/estimate, get quotes for you and oversee that they do the work correctly.
Note: The Garden Goddess does not install plants, trees, shrubs or any other landscaping elements. (The only exception is the Exterior Staging Package.) I have many trustworthy companies I work with and can oversee their work, upon your request.

“Doreen's own yard/garden is gorgeous. I have been to her home several times and have seen what she has done with it. Plus now that she has her master gardener designation, she has even more knowledge to draw on. I heard her speak at ASU Downtown brown bag lunch series and was very impressed with her depth of knowledge. She was able to answer all questions posed and could explain all options very clearly. I would definitely recommend her to help with garden planning, planting or other plant oriented questions and concerns.”
