Garden Tour Suggestions

Do you have a garden you’re proud of—or know someone whose space deserves to shine? I’m always on the lookout for unique, inspiring, or just plain gorgeous gardens to feature on Over The Fence. Whether it’s big or small, wild or refined, if it has heart, I’d love to see it. I’m especially interested in gardens with a story:

Personal Sanctuaries
Unique Plant Combinations
Clever Small-Space Designs
Creative plantings or DIY touches

If you’d like me to consider featuring your garden—or one you admire—please send me a note with a few photos and a bit of background. Email [email protected] or use my contact form.

What My Clients Say

”My front yard went from a suburban wasteland to a natural wonder, positively teeming with life. I couldn’t be more pleased with Donna’s attention to detail, eye for beauty, and understanding of the complexities of planting design.”

Joel O

” I am so inspired by the detailed plan that Donna created for my backyard. She heard everything that I had to say, and did an outstanding job of fitting all of my ‘wants’ into my extremely small backyard space. I cannot wait to get started on turning her design into a reality.” 

Dave S

Donna was such a pleasure to work with. She connected me with a great contractor who helped to get the hardscape in place so that we could bring her design to life. My yard is now a drought-tolerant haven for pollinators, and a delight through every season.
