Take the Guesswork Out of Landscaping, Trust the Planning to Us

We are a local landscape design and horticultural team with a deep understanding of Central Florida’s plants, soils, codes, and climate.

If you’ve used AI or an online service to design your landscape, you’re not alone.

The problem is that most of those plans are not built for real world conditions in Florida.

That’s where we come in.

We take your existing design and refine it into something that actually works on your property, in your conditions, and within your budget.

From correcting plant selections to adjusting layouts for drainage and sun exposure, we make sure your investment turns into a landscape that lasts.

Custom Landscape Designs

Starting at $395 and customized to fit your needs

Our design service gives you a clear, buildable plan tailored to your property, your goals, and Florida’s conditions. We focus on real-world functionality, plant selection, and layout so everything works when it is time to install.

Whether you are starting from scratch or already have ideas or a design, we turn it into something that can actually be built.

Our Custom Design Package Includes:

  • Consultation


    In-person or virtual consultation with our lead horticultural expert and designer to understand your space, goals, budget, and overall direction

  • Site-Specific Design Plan


    A to-scale overhead layout showing plantings, layout, and key landscape features

  • Horticultural Plant Selection


    Plants selected by a local expert based on sun exposure, soil conditions, and long-term success

  • Plant and Materials Guide


    A clear legend with real-life photos and details for everything included in the design

  • Optional 3D Renderings

    If you would like to see your space before it is built, 3D renderings are available as an add-on. These provide a realistic view of your design from multiple angles and can help you feel more confident moving forward.

  • Revisions


    Up to two revisions to refine the plan (additional revisions available)

  • Installation Estimate


    If Gardens Earth & Water completes your installation, 20% of the design fee is credited toward the project
