Garden Design, Simplified.
Creating a beautiful garden doesn’t have to be overwhelming. The Dirt Diva process is built on experience, clear communication, and a genuine love for helping people enjoy their outdoor spaces. From the first on-site visit to after-planting care, every step is designed to keep things simple, collaborative, and stress-free.
Every project begins with a visit to your space. This is where we talk through what’s working, what’s not, and how you want your garden to feel. We discuss the mature size of the plants you want, desired colors, review evergreens or deciduous options, do you want low maintenance or are you ok with annual pruning, etc. Lastly, we determine sun exposure and garden measurements to ensure the design fits your needs and your environment — not the other way around.

Design + Planting Selections
Next comes the design phase, where ideas start taking shape. You’ll receive a clear, easy-to-understand hand-drawn design tailored to your space, lifestyle, and future goals. Every design is practical and built to last — with plant choices, layout, and materials selected for beauty, balance, and long-term success.

Professional Installation
Once the design is finalized, it’s time to bring it to life. If desired, Dirt Diva handles plant selection, sourcing from Wilson’s Nursery, and full installation with local landscapers. We make sure each plant is placed for its best growth and visual impact, creating a polished result that looks intentional from day one. We provide a detailed quote for plantings, delivery, and installation.

Care + Follow-Up
After installation, we don’t just walk away. Each project includes guidance for initial planting care along with intentional check-ins to see how everything is looking in the first few weeks. We also discuss general ongoing care and maintenance as needed. It’s all part of ensuring your garden stays healthy, vibrant, and true to the original design as it matures.
