Gardens by Steph was born from a deep belief: small spaces deserve big attention.

I'm StephenieAnne — a horticulturist, garden designer, and lifelong plant enthusiast. After years of studying plant science and working hands-on in gardens of all kinds, I created this business for homeowners who dream of beautiful, thriving outdoor spaces but need a knowledgeable, gentle hand to help them flourish.

My approach is rooted in observation. Gardens speak to us through their leaves, their blooms, their soil. When we slow down and pay attention, we learn what they need — more water here, better drainage there, a companion plant to attract pollinators, a pruning schedule that honors their natural rhythm.

I specialize in small garden spaces — patios, courtyards, cottage beds, pollinator gardens, container arrangements, and intimate landscapes. These are the places where life slows down, where morning coffee tastes better, where you notice the first butterfly of spring.

My design style is soft, natural, and organic. I love wildflowers, textural layers, movement in the breeze, and plants that feel like they've always belonged. I work with nature, not against it — choosing species that thrive in your microclimate, creating ecosystems that support local wildlife, and designing gardens that evolve beautifully through the seasons.

Whether you need weekly maintenance, a seasonal refresh, or a complete small-space redesign, every project receives the same thoughtful care. I see each garden as a living collaboration between people, plants, and place.

Your garden should feel like a sanctuary. With the right attention, it can thrive in every season — and I'd be honored to help you grow it. Let's grow together! You can connect with me by clicking one of the buttons below. Text, call, or email.
