Explore a selection of our recent landscape designs, ecological installations, and custom container arrangements. At Mindful Gardens, every project is rooted in sustainable, waterwise practices tailored to the unique environment of your space.
Regenerative Water Management
This work in process Cohasset project solves significant drainage issues using an engineered water management system. Featuring French drains and a rain garden pit, it utilizes deep-rooted Minnesota natives to beautifully capture and filter runoff.
Ecological Curb Appeal
We replaced traditional turf grass space with a sweeping, drought-tolerant garden. This waterwise design reduces lawn maintenance while providing vibrant, multi-season interest.
Woodland Edge Retreat
Bridging the gap between a manicured lawn and wild beauty. This design replaced underutilized turf with layered, ecological plantings and a meandering stone border to create a serene, restorative space.
Early Spring Lakefront Planters
A fresh take on the Northern early spring. We paired striking Ranunculus, Hyacinth, and cool silver foliage to provide maximum contrast and immediate life to this lakefront deck while it is still too cold for standard summer annuals.
Summer Radiance Planter
Curated for the peak of the northern summer season. We pair vibrant, sun-loving blooms with deep, dramatic trailing foliage to create a striking, low-maintenance arrangement that provides a welcoming pop of continuous color all summer long.
High-Contrast Winter Structure
​True landscape design doesn't stop when the snow flies. Our resilient winter arrangements feature fresh-cut evergreens and red dogwood branches to bring life and structure to stark winter exteriors.
