Tailored landscapes that blend beauty, sustainability, and your personal style.
Your garden is more than just a yard—it's an extension of your home, a place to relax, entertain, and connect with nature. But without a thoughtful plan, many Portland homeowners end up with a patchy lawn, invasive weeds, or plants that struggle in our unique Pacific Northwest climate. That's where professional garden design comes in. At GreenScape Landscaping, we've spent 14 years mastering the art of creating outdoor spaces that thrive year-round. Whether you're looking for a cozy cottage garden, a modern minimalist retreat, or a native plant sanctuary that supports local wildlife, our custom garden design service in Portland, OR, brings your vision to life. We combine horticultural expertise with creative design to solve common problems like poor drainage, lack of privacy, and dull curb appeal. Every design considers soil quality, sun exposure, and your lifestyle needs, ensuring a garden that is both beautiful and functional. Let's transform your landscape into a living masterpiece—starting with a conversation.
We don't do cookie-cutter layouts. Your garden design reflects your tastes, how you use your space, and the unique character of your Portland property.
Our designs prioritize drought-tolerant, native Pacific Northwest plants that require less water and attract pollinators—perfect for Portland's eco-conscious homeowners.
A professionally designed garden can boost your home's curb appeal and resale value. Smart landscaping is one of the best investments you can make.
We select plants and hardscaping that provide visual interest in every season—from spring blooms to winter structure. No more bare, boring months.
Too busy to prune and water constantly? We design for ease of care, using groundcovers, mulch beds, and automated irrigation to save you time and effort.
From initial sketch to final planting, we coordinate every step. Our team handles permits, materials, and subcontractors so you can enjoy a stress-free experience.
We meet at your home to discuss your vision, needs, and budget. We take measurements, photos, and notes on existing conditions like sun exposure and soil.
Our team analyzes your property's microclimate and creates a preliminary concept plan with layout ideas, plant palettes, and hardscape options for your review.
Once you approve the concept, we develop a detailed planting plan, including specific species, irrigation zones, and construction drawings for any structures.
Whether you choose to install yourself or have our crew handle it, we provide clear guidance and can manage the full installation for a seamless finish.
The cost of garden design in Portland, OR, varies based on the size and complexity of your project. For a typical residential lot (2,000–5,000 sq ft), our garden design fees range from $500 to $3,000 for a detailed plan alone. If you also need us to handle installation, a full design-build project usually falls between $5,000 and $20,000, depending on features like patios, paths, retaining walls, and specialty plants. Factors such as slope, soil quality, and your choice of materials also influence the final price. We provide transparent quotes with no hidden fees, and we'll work within your budget to create a design that maximizes impact. Remember, great garden design pays for itself over time through lower water bills, reduced maintenance costs, and increased property value. Contact us for a personalized estimate.
