Irma & Scott, Half Moon Bay

When we decided to relandscape our overgrown backyard, we reached out to Rootsy Garden Design. We never would have achieved what we have without them. The process was a journey of change and discovery, that Laura the owner helped guide and inspire us. We started with a long wish list: things we wanted to retain, multiple seating areas, generous space for entertaining to make the most of a sunny corner of a relatively shady North-facing yard, emphasize California Natives. We also wanted low maintenance which included a Labyrinth. What a challenge! We worked on some of the project ourselves, Laura’s guidance there was indispensable for choosing between those tasks that we could accomplish and those better left to professionals. Laura has an unfailing eye for design, that we really have only fully appreciated now that the project is complete. Our space is peaceful, spiritual and yet functional but also full of thoughtful elements with unexpected vistas.
