Japanese Maple Shaping & Garden Design
What do IÂ do?
Premier Scientific & Artistic Maple Care
A lifetime study and love of trees, plants, and the natural world has led organically into shaping Japanese Maples and conifers. My artistic background and degree in Biological/Plant studies has proven to be the perfect combination, enabling me to understand what each unique tree needs and how to bring out its very best attributes, artistically and scientifically, truly the way it should be for these unique special trees. Your maples are important and valuable assets and you should trust only skilled hands to care for them. If you're interested in enjoying your tree for the beautiful natural work of art that it is, I'm the person to help get it there.
Helping people enjoy their outdoor spaces with plants and pottery has been a joyful addition to my repertoire.
The creative endeavor of understanding plant characteristics and how they meet the needs of each gardening client brings me more joy than words can express.

I look forward to meeting you
and seeing your maples and garden spaces!

50-year old Masterpiece on a Cliff in Poulsbo
March 3, 2021
This absolute beauty of a dissectum is frighteningly close to a pretty scary cliff drop, but what a view while we worked! The thinning and shaping revealed the gorgeous art piece that was hiding within the overgrowth.

This amazing tree was like so many others I see almost daily:Â hiding it's spectacular structure under an overgrown and unhealthy canopy of thick branches that had been damaged from improper trimming.
Key Peninsula Spectacular Specimen
September 8, 2021
This dissectum is part of the best view around with Mt. Rainier in all of it's grandeur on perfect days like this one. The ramification and long laterals hiding under the thick canopy are now able to breathe and will not be lost due to lack of light and air.
