We have used Portia’s landscaping service for several years and would not use anyone else. Among the many tasks she has previously accomplished are to completely clean up and re-plant our front and back yard, installing a sprinkler/drip system w/moisture sensor, moved a good sized mature tree from one part of the yard to another and recently expanded our back brick patio with more brick and plantings.
We call in Portia a couple of times per year for seasonal cleaning and plantings for maintenance. She always delivers exactly what she says she’ll do, her fees are a very good value and she is a joy to work with. We would not use anyone else. If a referral is needed please eamil to wpierce4@comcast.net.

Here is my baby boy Little G. He is a cross between a Pug and a Bichon Frise. His mother Pepper is Black and his dad Puffy is white.
He is so smart and a chunk of loving mess he is too. He loves to be out side in the garden with me.
This large leaf beauty is called Farfugium Gigantea (far-FEW-gee-um) or Ligularia is another name for it.
There is a yellow spotted version and it is called “Leopard Plant”.
A most magnificent contrast in foliage and loves partial shade to full shade gardens. Farfugium likes to be wet and makes for a great accent around water features.
If you have a situation where you have way too much shade and can’t figure out what to plant,
well here is your answer! Grows to be 36″-48″ tall and equal in width.
all my best – Portia
This has been a project in the making for over a year. This client started with the indoors and revamped pretty much the entire house. Then moved to the out side. The existing water feature needed to be torn out and redone, new drainage and irrigation was installed and finally the planting. We just finished last week and it will fill in perfectly. This space looked like an overgrown amazon before. I wanted to consider how small the space is in the design and created something more quaint and colorful.
