Maintenance Handbook - $75

This is a special product I offer to my clients to share my firsthand knowledge about the plants in their landscape. The Maintenance Handbook provides the plant names, watering needs, pruning instructions, flowering seasons, and mature sizes for each plant included in your plan. I highly recommend this handbook because it takes the guesswork out of caring for your yard and enables you or your landscape maintenance crew to get the most out of the colors, foliage, shapes, and other great features of your landscape in every season.

Installation Is Not Included

Rocket Garden Landscape Design provides thoughtful and detailed landscape designs, but does not install landscapes. 
We can recommend highly qualified installation contractors to install our custom landscape designs  for you ​or  we can plan the landscape with the do-it-yourself homeowner in mind.  Contractor recommendations are provided at designer's discretion  with consultation or custom design purchase.
