Landscapers Guilford CT | Call Alexandra's Gardens

We address these issues by first assessing your property's specific drainage and soil conditions. For standing water, we can design and install solutions like regrading, French drains, or decorative dry stream beds that are both functional and beautiful. For dead lawn patches or struggling areas, we focus on soil health and plant selection, often incorporating hardy, native perennials suited to our local climate that can outcompete weeds and thrive with proper care, transforming problem spots into vibrant garden spaces.

Our garden restoration service begins with understanding the history and architecture of your Guilford home. We specialize in reviving English-style and perennial gardens, carefully pruning overgrown plants, dividing and replenishing soil, and reintroducing appropriate species to restore the garden's original structure and beauty. We can also integrate new elements like stone walls or a cedar arbor that match the existing style. The goal is to honor the garden's past while ensuring it is sustainable and lush for years to come.

We provide a detailed artistic sketch with every proposal because a garden is a living investment that changes over time. This rendition illustrates how your designed perennial garden or landscape will look at the three-year mark, when plants have fully matured and filled in. It helps our Guilford clients visualize the final outcome, the flow of pathways, the placement of stone walls or arbors, and how the entire space will complement their home, ensuring we're aligned on the vision before any work begins.
