What makes GreenHeart Gardens different from other landscaping companies?
We combine creative landscape design with sustainable practices—using native plants, eco-friendly materials, and smart irrigation to craft spaces that are not only beautiful, but also environmentally responsible and easy to maintain.
Do you offer custom garden designs?
Absolutely. Every project starts with your unique vision. We work closely with you to design outdoor spaces that reflect your lifestyle, aesthetic preferences, and connection to the land.
What areas do you serve?
We’re based in the Iowa City area and currently serve clients throughout the surrounding region. If you're nearby and unsure whether you're in our service area, feel free to reach out!
What types of plants do you use?
We prioritize native and climate-adapted plants that thrive in Iowa’s environment. Our selections are chosen for beauty, resilience, and ecological value—meaning less water, fewer chemicals, and more pollinators.
Do you offer consultations before starting a project?
Yes. We begin with an on-site consultation to understand your space, preferences, and goals. From there, we develop a tailored plan that aligns with your vision and budget.
Do you handle the actual landscaping or just the design?
Our focus is exclusively on design. We provide you with comprehensive plans, plant selections, and material recommendations. We’re happy to coordinate with your chosen landscaper or contractor to ensure the vision is executed properly.
What’s included in a typical design package?
Each project includes a custom design tailored to your space, plant palette recommendations, layout plans, and sustainable design strategies. We also provide optional mood boards, lighting suggestions, and contractor-ready documents as needed.
