Welcome. I provide landscape design plus small to medium shrub & tree pruning for landscape maintenance around Medford, Jacksonville, Central Point and Ashland in southern Orego around the Rogue Valley. I am also adept with Japanese Maple pruning. Homeowners often call for advice about trees and landscape care. The consultations average 1 hour and cover soil, plants, irrigation practices plus tree care advice and arborist reports. I can also replenish bark and decorative gravel mulch.
Preferrably, this trade requires the mindset of arborist, horticulturist and designer merged into one thought process. I am one of the few who experienced all those aspects, and it makes a difference. My pruning trends "natural" but I can make exceptions sometimes like the unique Rogue Valley Landscape. Since my equipment is more compact plus doing work myself, I usually provide better affordability than big crews for small tree and shrub care. The 2nd menu below leads to over 200 pages about various landscaping tips and redwood travel information.
On the side, I also provide professional photography which evolved from measuring coast redwoods for research. Eventually forest photography evolved into portraits and weddings. I entered horticulture in 1980 with golf courses, university campuses and parks, followed by residential landscapes in 1988. Over 45 years experience. Please take a moment to review the background and testimonials page.
