Wildly Resilient.
Moonlit Gardens is a woman-owned and operated landscape design and installation company that focuses on creating ecologically rich and resilient gardens that celebrate native plants of Maine and New England.
“Our gardens are evolving compositions, not something we can restrain. Painting is two-dimensional; architecture and sculpture, three-dimensional. But landscapes are four-dimensional, with time being the fourth dimension.”
-D. Morrison
Emma creates native-driven gardens of all sizes for residential and commercial properties. The process starts with a comprehensive site analysis and design, then installation, all done by Emma to ensure a fully cohesive result that feels settled in the landscape. Emma focuses on Naturalistic planting design, using bold drifts of natives planted closely together in groups, often with a matrix of grasses or sedges. These unique principals evoke the feeling of a natural and lush landscape.
‘Nature as we all dream it would be.’
The goal of every planting is to increase native plant communities, increase biodiversity, create resilient and long lived gardens that thrive in their existing conditions, reduce property maintenance, and create unique spaces that bring moments of ‘awe’ in every season.
