Our Story

Viola Gardens is a full-service landscape design and construction firm serving Los Angeles since 2007. Founded by Jessica, a licensed landscape contractor and botanical designer with over two decades of experience, the company is rooted in principles of sustainability, permaculture, and artistic vision. Jessica's extensive background includes managing a native plant nursery in Marin, studying ecology in Peru and Mexico, and earning certifications in Earth Architecture from Cal Earth and Permaculture Design. This deep, hands-on knowledge informs Viola Gardens' holistic approach. We specialize in creating resilient, site-appropriate outdoor spaces, from drought-tolerant gardens and edible landscapes to hillside restoration and natural building projects, utilizing environmentally responsible techniques and materials like flagstone and decomposed granite.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you address common Los Angeles issues like shifting rock gardens or tree root damage?

For shifting rock gardens, we assess the underlying soil and drainage, often using proper earthmoving and regrading to create a stable base, and may incorporate retaining walls for long-term support. For tree root damage, our irrigation design and repair services can implement targeted, deep-watering solutions that nourish trees without harming lawns or hardscapes, and we can redesign affected areas with permeable, root-friendly materials like decomposed granite walkways.

What does your 'full-service' landscape design and construction include?

Our full-service approach handles every phase, from initial concept to ongoing care. It begins with comprehensive landscape and irrigation design. Our licensed team then executes the construction or installation, which can include earthmoving, patios, walkways, retaining walls, and custom irrigation systems. We also offer specialized services like natural building for exterior walls and artistic container planting. Finally, we provide landscape and irrigation maintenance to ensure your garden thrives sustainably.

What makes your approach to edible or drought-tolerant gardens unique?

Our founder's certifications in permaculture design and Earth Architecture guide our process. We don't just plant; we create whole-system solutions. For edible gardens, we integrate companion planting and organic care. For drought-tolerant landscapes, our irrigation design uses water precisely, and we select plants suited to LA's microclimates. We combine this ecological science with an artistic vision, using materials like flagstone to build beautiful, functional, and environmentally responsible outdoor spaces.
