Do you have children, grandchildren, pets, or tenants?

What are your favorite trees and flowers? Are there any flowers that bring back fond memorys of the past?

What are your favorite colors? Do you have a hot color pallet, vibrant colors like yellow, red, and orange? Or do you perfer softer colors like pink, purple, and white?

Will you be entertaining outdoors?

Which outdoor sports do you enjoy playing?

Do you enjoy formal spaces or cottage gardening?

So many questions need to be asked and thought about before we can create something together that is pleasing for generations to come.

G.J. Smith, Inc.’s Landscape Design process focuses on defining your landscaping needs first. We then turn those ideas into comprehensive landscaping plans that fit your property, fit your budget, and fit our fragile Nantucket ecosystem. We truly go the extra mile to create landscaping solutions that work with the environment, not against it. We believe in leaving a light ecological footprint. We accomplish this by using many indigenous plant species from Nantucket and also plant species which do not require extensive amounts of synthetic fertilizers.
