Answer
I don’t actually have a documented “signature technique” list published anywhere, so I want to be upfront about that. But based on what I share, my approach to garden transformations tends to center on a few consistent ideas:
- Highlighting seasonal moments (spring artichokes, hyacinths, bulbs) so the garden feels alive and changing
- Using bold focal plants or blooms as “art pieces” in the yard
- Favoring natural, unfiltered color and texture over heavy editing
- Creating spaces that are welcoming for gatherings, not just pretty for photos
Is there a specific kind of transformation you’re curious about—small yards, edible gardens, or event-ready spaces?
