Landscaping Design in Dallas, Texas – Appealing Gardens Landscape, L.L.C.

Landscaping & Installation Contractors Since 2002

Water-Wise, Sustainable & Recycle Focused

We are a landscape design company in Dallas providing landscaping ideas, design, and installation for your garden, backyard, front yard, patio and deck. From retaining walls to sustainable landscaping, we do it all. Our personal Plano landscape consultation and design services are thoughtful to nature, detailed to the client's needs, creative and comprehensive. We offer two Allen landscaping services to connect with our clients: Consultations and Master Designs. Pre-meeting "new client questionnaire" and survey plat copy are needed to best serve you.

Consultations

Keith will meet you at your property and spend about 1 hour with you. To start this process, he will walk around with you and take notes, making a few recommendations and options and, if desired, marking with turf paint or light sketches to give more ground visuals. Keith will talk more in detail about your landscape, showing you pictures and giving landscape ideas to best utilize the space for your family. Upon completion of your consultation, Keith will get pictures and measurements and take them back to his office to work up a detailed estimate. Estimate turnaround takes 1-2 weeks in the off-season and 2-3 weeks in peak season. We love it when clients call us in winter to get organized for those early spring projects and in summer for those early fall projects.

Master Designs

Our Master Designs are for clients who prefer to see much more detail in their plan and have a real desire to get involved in the process and pick out more of their options. They are done in two phases. First, the conceptual bed layout and hardscape plan. Once that is approved by the client, we move into the planting plan and design completion. Installation budgets and projects are typically larger with Master Plans and take more time and planning. Site visits to see nursery plant material, pottery and stone yards for DIY clients are billed at an hourly rate of $75.00 per hour.
Fee: $500.00 for the front and $500.00 for the back, based on ¼ acre-sized lots. Price can go up depending on the scope of work and the size of the property. 1-acre properties start at $1500.00.

Design Philosophy

Our designs are functional, aesthetic and customized around a client’s style, tastes and budget. We design with the year-round yard approach using a variety of species that provide interest throughout the year. We also use natural stone products such as boulders, flagstone and chopped stone. We use eco-friendly plants that attract birds, butterflies, hummingbirds and other pollinators. The plants that we choose are low maintenance, only requiring trimming, pruning and mulching in early spring and optional late summer light pruning to promote more fall blooms. The Texas hardy trees, shrubs, perennials, grasses and groundcovers are water-wise, and once established, they can survive on minimal to no irrigation. We recommend taking advantage of the spring rain and watering less in the spring, supplementing water in the summer and turning off the water in the fall and winter. The average establishment time is 1-3 years for shrubs and perennials and 3-5 years for trees. We provide you with a watering and maintenance plan upon completion and have an open-door policy for future questions or concerns about your landscape.
