Company Bio

Christopher Bysshe, Principle. 
Chris brings an artistic creativity as well as a trained background in ecology, horticulture, and design to each project.   He works very hard to assess the needs of the client by discovering what their perfect garden would look and feel like, as well as their perspective on what is “beautiful.”  Chris started the business 5 years ago and is very excited about the direction in which the company is headed.  Originally trained as a biologist, botanist, and horticulturist, Chris found his way into the industry through his love of dirt, design, and plants.  Chris is the head designer and oversees each project from start to finish.  He brings over 18 years of experience in the green industry either as a landscape designer, horticulturist, or biologist.
