Plant Life Designs

I can’t say enough good things about Tara and her team at Plant Life Designs! Tara took our landscaping project vision and turned it into something even better than we imagined with native plants that flow surrounded by interesting hard scape materials. Her communication is superior and the quality of work is excellent. She is so easy and flexible to work with. Our initial project even spurred a second project. It is also fun to visit her property to get inspiration and be surrounded in a peaceful nature setting. PLD is the best!

I've been working with Plant Life Designs for over 15 years now, across two different houses, and Tara and her team are simply the best. Every single time, they just get it—they know exactly what I'm looking for and bring ideas that are even better than I imagined. They handle everything from start to finish, which takes so much stress out of the process. But here's what really sets them apart: they don't just disappear after the install. They check in every year to make sure everything's thriving and looking as gorgeous as it should. That kind of follow-through is hard to find. Tara's design sense is excellent, and the whole team is professional and easy to work with. After 15 years and two properties, I wouldn't dream of using anyone else. If you're looking for landscapers who truly care

Tara is a master at coming up w design solutions in the trickiest of outdoor spaces. We've done 2 big projects with her and it went so well we might have to come up with more! From the initial design phase to the construction to the follow up afterwards, Tara and her team took care of us all the way. You get what you pay for when it comes to landscaping design and build, and Plant Life Designs is so worth it!

We live on a corner lot on a hill in Des Moines. We've never been able to really enjoy our yard because of the significant slope. Tara created a beautiful yard for us to finally enjoy! She leveled our hill, added a retaining wall, and planted nearly 100 perennials. She listened to all of our hopes for our space and created a stunning yard within our budget. She communicated with us every step of the way and took time to ensure that we were 100% satisfied at the end. I would highly recommend Plant Life Designs.

We have worked with Plant Life Designs on several different projects ranging from landscape design/install to a mulch refresh. Tara and her team are fantastic! They are knowledgable, responsive, and do quality work. I highly recommend Plant Life Designs to anyone!
