Our Philosophy
Our philosophy is that amazing landscaping is not only visually beautiful but also draws you in through all five senses.
Color, light, movement, shadow. We create picturesque views from all angles and throughout the season to make sure you’ll see your property through new eyes every single time.
It’s more than just taking time to stop and smell the roses. We create an inviting space where you will want to relax and savor the fresh air, sweetened by our plants and flowers.
Attracting birds through various blooms and berries can brighten your getaway with birdsong, and features like a fire pit or a pond can add soothing sounds to your sanctuary.
Take off your shoes and make yourself at home in your outdoor home, feel the grass under your feet, touch the velvety flowers and leaves, or splash around in a cooling water feature.
We add a little flavor to your life with fresh herbs and vegetables to incorporate into your favorite recipes.
In addition to stimulating your senses and providing respite from the stresses of daily life, there are many other benefits from the unparalleled work of Landscapes by Dallas Foster, including:
Improved mental and physical health through therapeutic relaxation and time spent outdoors.
The enhancement of your home through a work of art that you can walk into and enjoy from within brings the sense of excitement and accomplishment of adding to your home and the anticipation of each new element as your garden grows and changes through the seasons and with each new visitor.
The privacy and security created through subtle, natural placement of plants and materials.
The spiritual connection and tranquility of being “one with nature.”
A sense of pride in the appearance of your home and business and the good impression others take away from that appearance.
An opportunity and place for time with the family and increased quality of life.
New hobbies and interests in gardening, horticulture, and collecting plants and garden art.
We blend plants with various colors and textures to incorporate interest for every season. We like to ensure that there is always something exciting to look at, even when the garden is dormant.
As you walk through the garden, each step will reveal a new view into the garden and to the spaces created within.
