March usually brings a gradual transition into spring, but this year feels a little different. Warmer temperatures and dry conditions have arrived early, and that means fire season may not be far behind. The good news is that a little preparation now can go a long way in protecting your home and landscape in the months ahead. Start with a simple cleanup Winter tends to leave behind a layer of dry debris, fallen branches, and leftover plant material. Clearing these out is one

This hillside corner went from dry and overgrown to peaceful and inviting. We installed a flagstone patio with a custom banco seating area tucked into the trees, perfect for taking in mountain views or hosting a quiet conversation. A winding flagstone path now guides you through Apache plume, spirea, and ornamental grasses, with a hand-carved stone bench offering a place to pause and enjoy the landscape. Gravel provides a low-maintenance base and clean finish that blends beau

Once the temperatures drop and the growing season winds down, it is easy to assume that drainage issues belong to the summer storms or monsoon season. But in Santa Fe, winter brings its own set of challenges. Even though we get less rain this time of year, the combination of freeze and thaw cycles can quietly create long-term problems for your landscape. A little attention now helps protect your outdoor spaces and sets you up for a healthier spring. Pay attention to freeze an

What once felt like a tired and uneven courtyard is now a warm and welcoming space perfect for morning coffee or evening conversations. We removed the aging flagstone and replaced it with soft peach flagstone to brighten the space and create a more refined flow. Moss rock edging and character boulders help frame new planting beds filled with bark mulch, perennials, and a beautiful crabapple tree as the centerpiece. We also installed irrigation to help everything thrive season

This yard was once dry, overgrown, and overlooked. With thoughtful planning and attention to detail, it has been reimagined into a clean, inviting, and low-maintenance outdoor space. We started by laying down Santa Fe brown gravel for a cohesive and tidy base. River rock was added to create soft lines and a natural flow through the yard. Flagstone pathways now provide structure and movement, while moss rock borders help define the planting areas. A mix of native grasses and h

What a difference a little vision makes! We repurposed the original flagstone to create a brand-new circular patio and added fresh Santa Fe brown gravel for a clean, cohesive look. New moss rock beds and a dry riverbed add structure and visual flow, while bark mulch helps retain moisture and frame the planting areas. A mix of Karl Foerster grasses, yarrow, and hardy perennials breathe new life into this formerly overgrown space—ready to be enjoyed year-round.

This yard went from bare dirt to a refined outdoor space designed for both beauty and ease. We created a flagstone patio for relaxing, laid down stepstone paths to draw the eye through the space, and added a dry riverbed feature for dimension and movement A raised flowerbed at the back offers structure and seasonal interest, while a thoughtful mix of perennials and evergreens, including Karl Foerster grass, cotoneaster, Montgomery spruce, and creeping pine, adds color and tex

This shaded side yard once featured patchy gravel and minimal definition. We began by removing the old gravel and leveling the entire space to the stucco line using basecourse. Each piece of flagstone was hand-cut and carefully fitted to create a smooth, flowing patio surface that beautifully defines the area. The original bench was relocated for better balance and usability, and the existing lilac was preserved and incorporated into the refreshed layout. Now this patio offer

This once-forgotten entryway now has a whole new feel. We repurposed the existing stone to create a cleaner, more intentional layout and installed a flagstone patio to carve out a cozy sitting area. New plantings, including lavender, penstemons, and other perennials, were added for long-term seasonal color, though they’re still lying low after their winter planting. The updated design strikes a balance between structure and softness, creating a space that will only improve wi

For this project, we removed overgrown juniper and mugo pine that had outgrown their welcome, along with an outdated, non-functioning irrigation system and a flagstone layout that just didn’t work anymore. In its place? A beautifully reimagined flagstone patio—clean lines, intentional spacing, and improved functionality. We added a river rock border to frame a new cactus garden and brought in additional flagstone to tie the whole space together. Now this area feels open, grou
