Annuals

Annuals

Perennials

Perennials

Plants that will come back year after year, perennials can provide balance for your yard. Happy Toad can provide yearly maintenance for your perennials as well as design and planting for both projects new and old.

Native Plants

Native plants are essential to our local ecosystems, supporting pollinators such as native bees and butterflies. While native plants can be harder to find, Happy Toad is here to guide you in tracking down the right plants for your growing space.

Edible Gardens

Edible Gardens

Want a garden you can eat? Edible gardens provide a tasty sanctuary where you can harvest your own food. Happy Toad can help plan with familiar and delicious fruits, veggies, and herbs in addition to edible flowers and less conventional plant selections. We can help you plant at the beginning of the season and you can take it from there, or we are available for maintenance and harvesting for the whole season.
