Have you inherited a beautiful garden, and want to know how best to keep it looking great? Are you interested in growing your own food or medicine, and having it beautiful as well as functional? Are you overwhelmed with your garden, and want to find ways to reduce the maintenance, but keep the beauty or the food? Are your Japanese maples and ornamental shrubs not nearly as ornamental as they should be?

These, and many more projects I can help you with. Give me a call: 206-567-5492, or send an e-mail: dianeemerson@Yahoo.com

“Diane, you are a gardening wizard! I can’t thank you enough for your help.” Kay Pieringer

“I am happy to recommend Diane Emerson as a person who can help you formulate ideas about making your own garden the unique place you dream about. She has a great love of the natural world and has spent much of her life learning how to live lightly on the landscape; she can help you realize your plans in the most environmentally-aware way. She is a hard worker on her own but also knows when she needs helpers. She encouraged me to make a sweet little native-woodland path in an area of my yard that’s been long neglected; I’ve been very happy with her approach and her ability to help me appreciate what is possible here.” Susie Fitzhugh
