About
Since its conception in 1984, Blisscapes Landscape Design & Nursery has forged ahead in using choice natives, companion plantings and embracing the four season in practical and very effective landscape designs.
Mission:
Blisscapes Landscape Design & Nursery wishes to inspire the viewer that your outdoor living space can be more inviting and captivating with landscape designs that are environmentally sound.
Philosophy:
Before any landscape is designed, practical consideration must be met. In a new construction, preservation of natural vegetation can enhance your property and greatly reduce future landscape costs. Call Bill to get started on your new outdoor living space today! Tel.: 508-636-6535
Frequent issues encountered when planning a landscape design can include:
One’s front door may be a considerable distance from the main activity of the household. Careful early planning is required to tastefully guide one’s guests to your front door.- Before finished grade, proper training of drainage away from the house and underground, out of sight is typically the best solution.
- Early planning is necessary to match the materials used on the outdoor staircases to those used on the walkway to create a more pleasing design.
- Many homeowners are surprised to learn that invasive exotics can make up about 80% of the weeds in a landscape.
- In sitting down with homeowners, these are just a few of the common problems I encounter. Working together, we can come up with solutions that make your landscape match the quality of your life.
