Maven Gardens offers 20 years of experience in the PNW landscape
It started in my grandmothers garden. Lily of the Valley, climbing tea roses and a giant blue atlas cedar. These are some of my fondest childhood memories. I set up the regional plant buying program for Smith in Hawken in the 90’s, rapid fire learning plant names, seasons, and characteristics. From there I worked for a horticulturist for 13 years, creating custom commerical container work as well as private gardens. I am an avid learner who loves to listen. I operate from the perspective of ‘ I don’t live here…. you do, how can my knowledge help transform your space so it works with and for you.
I am passionate about pollinators, year round interest and am willing to learn new things everyday.
