Gardens that belong here.
Carleton Landscaping designs, builds and maintains native-plant landscapes across Vancouver and the surrounding cities. Our crew brings botany, landscape design and restoration experience to every site — from a single pollinator bed to full strata programs. If you plant it, they will come: bees, birds and butterflies find the right plants fast, and the garden asks for less every year after the first.
Four ways we work.

Starting points.
On-site consultation
Site walk and feasibility talk — planning, material advice and honest next steps.
Native planting-bed design
Species selected for your soil and light, with layout plan and planting schedule.
Seasonal maintenance visit
Pruning, planting, soil and pest check — organic methods, one visit.
Consultation
Email [email protected] — we walk the site with you before anything is drawn.
Design
Ideas fully expanded, then landed. Native plants first; municipal permitting handled inside the service.
Build & plant
Invasives cleared, habitat features placed, every plant sited for where it will live.
Care & monitor
Seasonal visits and plant health monitoring — or a full annual strata program.

Asked often.
Do you maintain strata properties?

What makes your approach different?
Native plants first — pollinator gardens, invasive-plant removal and habitat restoration instead of high-input ornamentals.
How do we start a project?
With a consultation — email [email protected] and we walk the site with you before anything is drawn.
Do you handle permits?
Yes — municipal permitting is part of our design service.
