THE H ST PLANT GUY

Easy Plants for Small Spaces

Native gardens, curb appeal, and low stress plants for small outdoor areas.

Your local plant lover. I help DC homeowners turn neglected outdoor spaces into something greener, cleaner, and easier to maintain, without overdesigned landscaping or high-maintenance gardens.

 

Potted plants created and dropped off for the homeowner’s special event. Yard conditions, sunlight, local weather taken into account to ensure plants will be low maintenance and thrive after event.

Services

  • Tree box overhauls

  • Yard & garden cleanups

  • Native garden installation

  • Pollinator & wildlife habitat gardens (which can include applying for a Wildlife Habitat Certification for you once garden is installed)

  • Potted plant drop-offs for porches, parties, and events

 

Primarily native garden installed on a rooftop in DC. With the right plants in place, the area is now filled with bees and butterflies.

Why hire me?

Designed for DC Spaces

Small yards, rowhomes, patios, awkward tree boxes. That’s my specialty.

Lower-Maintenance Planting

Plants chosen to survive DC weather and not become a full-time hobby. Sometimes you just want to clean up once and not have to hire someone to maintain full-time all year.

Native & Pollinator Friendly

I will always recommend plants and gardens that support birds, bees, butterflies, and the neighborhood ecosystem. In part, because these native plants are easier to maintain in our local climate.

Quick Visual Impact

A few good plants and a cleanup completely change a space. And I don’t mind getting my hands dirty.

  • Want better curb appeal

  • Don’t know what to plant
