Plants, mulch, stone and lawn
Everything is drawn on top of your photo, not on a flat plan.
East Coast plant library
Trees, evergreens, shrubs, perennials, grasses, annuals and vines, plus garden features such as seating, fire and lighting. Cards show size, growth and tags like Native or Deer-resistant.
Ground materials
Paint mulch, stone, gravel or lawn, and draw beds, patios and edging.
Remove what is in the way
Erase an object or clear weeds to a blank canvas before you design.
Add your own items
Snap a photo of a plant or object and add it to your own library.
See it grow and change the season
Drag the See it grow slider to see each plant at future sizes using its own growth data, or press Fully grown. Pick the size you would buy, such as a 5-gallon shrub, then check the spacing at maturity.
Switch between spring, summer, fall and winter, a peak-look view, and day or night with lighting. Hold the eye button to compare with the original photo.
Ready to build it? Ask landscapers for quotes
When the design looks right, send it to a landscaper, or build one request for several. You can get quotes from local landscapers and follow them in My Projects.
Run a landscaping company? The Designer is built into the Contractor Hub next to quotes, jobs and invoices. See the designer for landscapers.
