After a well‑deserved break, we’re back and fully recharged for 2026.

Our recent trip through Argentina and Chile was full of landscape, history, and inspiration. In Mendoza, Parque General San Martín, designed by French landscape architect Carlos Thays, stands as a powerful example of how landscape architecture transformed desert into a green urban system. The park and city rely on ancient acequias, still carefully maintained by city employees, giving Mendoza its clean streets, shaded avenues, and mature tree canopy.

The climate feels much like Colorado, dry and sunny, though winters are warmer. Flying into the Andes and seeing Aconcagua from above was breathtaking and unforgettable.

In Chile, we visited the coast, where massive hydrangeas thrive in the cooler climate, and spent time in Santiago de Chile, surrounded by colonial architecture dating back to the 1560s. So much history and beautiful landscape, an inspiring way to begin the year.

🌿 Seeking privacy without sacrificing beauty? 🌿

Take a look at this evergreen privacy screen we installed back in 2020. In just a few years, it has matured into a dense, structured barrier that not only provides seclusion but also frames the property beautifully.

Why an evergreen screen?
✔ Year-round structure: Maintains full foliage through every season, offering consistent privacy.
✔ Microclimate control: Acts as a natural windbreak, reducing wind exposure and buffering noise.
✔ Enhanced property value: Provides a lush backdrop that improves curb appeal and creates spatial definition.
✔ Low-maintenance longevity: Once established, these species require minimal pruning and care.

💡 A note for Colorado homeowners: while online sources often recommend arborvitae, this species does not perform reliably in our region’s dry, high-altitude climate and fluctuating winter temperatures. We carefully select climate-adapted conifer varieties that can handle Colorado’s conditions, ensuring your investment thrives for decades.
