LA Peluso Designs

“The amount of wildlife drawn to the garden since it’s completion is remarkable. I’ve seen many new types of birds, bees, and even lizards come to the garden where none were before. Leslie made sure the views from my windows are lovely and I very much enjoy being out among the fragrant plants.”

“Leslie took my very basic ideas and turned them into a beautiful space that made sense and was exactly what we wanted. Everyone is amazed when they see it. Even a  friend who is a professional graphic designer said it looked like a yard from Sunset Magazine!”

“Given the challenges of our home layout, Leslie was great at teaching us some landscape concepts such as entry sequence, balance, proportion and style, helping us to understand why we were so frustrated with what we had. She listened to our wants and priorities, especially how to tear out our front lawn and transition to incorporating our existing fruit trees with California native plantings. She was mindful of our budget constraints and our willingness to do much ourselves. She gave us the framework we needed to enhance the look of our property and create a welcoming entryway. We LOVE the way it looks. We enjoy spending time gardening there. We’ve been surprised at all the neighbors’ compliments. We got more than our money’s worth.”
