Why Perrico Gardens?
Creating a garden can feel overwhelming — especially with Pittsburgh’s clay soil, unpredictable weather, and persistent deer. That’s where I come in.
At Perrico Gardens, I offer personalized garden design consultations for homeowners who want to transform their outdoor space but aren’t sure where to begin. Whether you plan to install the garden yourself or hire a landscaper, you’ll get a clear, practical plan tailored to your yard’s conditions and your aesthetic preferences.
I specialize in:
Garden planning for sun, shade, and slopes
Deer-resistant and low-maintenance planting ideas
Helping DIY gardeners gain confidence with professional guidance
As a PA Certified Horticulturist and Phipps-accredited sustainable landcare professional, I bring both expertise and local experience to every consultation. No cookie-cutter designs or pressure to install — just thoughtful, site-specific plans to help you grow the garden you’ve been imagining.
