How Michigan landscape design works here
Step 01
Tell us about your yard
Book an on-site visit, or upload front, side, and rear elevation photos with notes about your design intentions. Either path starts the same plan.
Step 02
A licensed landscape architect designs it
You get a scaled planting plan with a numbered layout, a custom-curated plant list chosen for your light, soil, and Michigan hardiness zone, plus care notes.
Step 03
We deliver the plants
Nursery-fresh material arrives labeled and matched to the numbers on your plan — no guessing in a big-box parking lot.
Step 04
You install it
Follow the layout and care notes, or have a Grounded designer place plants in your prepared bed. We also keep a list of vendors who will do bed prep and planting for you.
