about me

Hi, I’m Louise, a garden consultant serving the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area. After years working in an office, I realized the moments I felt most alive were always outside—whether walking through a park or tending to my own small garden. That pull toward nature eventually became too strong to ignore, and I’ve been helping others rediscover the joy of outdoor spaces ever since.My specialty is creating herbal, aromatic, and culinary gardens—the kinds of spaces that engage your senses and invite you to slow down. I love working with native plants and low-maintenance alternatives that are beautiful, functional, and better for our local environment.With over a decade of hands-on gardening experience, my goal is simple: to help you turn your yard, patio, or balcony into a peaceful retreat, a place where you can step outside, take a breath, and feel refreshed.Your garden should be more than just something to take care of—it should take care of you.
