A Personalized Approach to Gardening, Curb Appeal, and Outdoor Living
A beautiful yard starts with a great landscape design. Whether you're looking for a new patio and an outdoor kitchen, a shade tree for a too sunny backyard, or simply some fresh shrubs and flowers for your front yard, our design team can deliver a polished look you'll love.
Led by veteran Frisco, Texas landscape designer Jeff McCauley, the Shades of Green Nursery + Landscape design team can take your project from start to finish. Tell us about your budget and your preferences, and we'll design your yard or commercial space using Texas native plants and sustainable landscaping practices. Upon design approval, we'll install your hardscapes, like pathways, and patios, and anything else you're looking for. Our mission is always to deliver on-time and on-budget.

What Landscape Design is Like With Shades of Green Nursery + Landscape
Revamping your outdoor space should be fun! We make the process simple, enjoyable, and personalized so you get the yard you're dreaming of. Before we start designing, we walk your property and ask you questions like these:
- What's your budget?
- Do you like to entertain guests outdoors?
- Will the space be used by children, pets, or both?
- Do you need more shade in the yard?
- Is safety and security an important consideration?
- What type of plants do you enjoy?
- Would you like to attract bees, butterflies, or birds to your yard?
- How much time do you want to spend in the space?
- How much time do you have to devote to maintenance?
As we get to know you, we design with your lifestyle in mind. From there, you can take the design and install it yourself, or we can install it for you—either all at once or in phases as your budget allows.

Step-by-Step: Landscape Design and Installation
We combine sustainable landscape design practices with on-time delivery for a seamless customer experience. Our straightforward design and installation process is simple and personalized:
Contact us to tell us about your project.
Schedule an on-site appointment. This is where our designer becomes familiar with your property and discusses your landscape goals. At that time, we ask that you provide us with a copy of your survey plat and payment of the design fee. The design fee is based on the complexity of your design using a three-tier structure.
Once your landscape designer has completed your comprehensive design, to include the front, back and side yards, you will be invited to Shades of Green to review the drawing and receive a quote for installation. One complimentary revision is included in the initial design fee. Each additional revision is available for a $100 fee.
The landscape design is yours to keep, however, we would like for you to hire our Shades of Green team to professionally install the plan. A 50% down payment is due at the time of scheduling installation. If the cost of your installation meets a certain threshold, we will credit the design fee to the landscape installation invoice.
With design in hand you have three choices:
-
Hire Shades of Green Nursery + Landscape to install the project as designed.
-
Take the plans and install it yourself or hire another contractor.
-
Break the project up into phases, installing it piece by piece with us or on your own.
For designs, expect a turnaround of 10-14 days in July, August, December, and January or up to five weeks during peak months. Contact us to learn more about our landscape design and installation process.
