Exterior Services's goal was to create a colorfully landscaped urban environment at this outdoor shopping complex, and to provide a place of refuge for people to play, relax, and be inspired. To achieve this, numerous landscape beds, 150 hanging baskets and over 450 containers were planted with a seasonal color display. Surrounding elements are always considered as many of the displays are styled to coordinate with the theme of the retail store or restaurant that they adorn.

The Pattie Group

This secluded English cottage garden themed residence consisted of many mature trees, sloping grades, streams, and natural rock outcropping. The Pattie Group utilized Rhododendrons, azaleas, hemlock, ferns, and a wide array of flowering perennials, annuals, and groundcovers to create a very colorful contrasting garden. The addition of strategically placed flower pots, hanging baskets and centerpieces are changed out a minimum of four times a year to offer seasonal color brilliance.

Chesterland Nurseries

This project was inspired by the homeowners and their dreams to come home to a beautiful, colorful, vacation-like setting backyard. Chesterland Nurseries designed and created a multi-level patio, pondless waterfall, built-in grill, and fireplace. The whole project was then planted with a variety of trees, shrubs, perennials, and annuals to offer intense color throughout the growing season.
