Why Us

 

Green, holistic, ecologically responsible — these are the values behind Gardenalia. We are landscape designers, landscape architects, gardeners, and skilled artisans who create inspired outdoor spaces.


What We Do

Put simply, Gardenalia provides a genuinely holistic garden experience. We achieve this through full-spectrum garden design and implementation. Your garden is a living, breathing ecosystem that’s designed to thrive. We attend to every detail, making sure that the final product is a garden that delights you and becomes the flourishing escape you’ve been dreaming of.

An Artistic, Interactive Approach

We begin with consulting and strategic planning to ensure that your vision drives the creative process behind your project. Our experts incorporate a wide range of expertise and resources, including outdoor lighting, hardscaping, wastewater management, sustainability evaluation, native & edible species gardening, and more. We draw on this incredible pool of talent to make our shared vision a reality.

Horticulture & Eco-Stewardship

Once the plan is in place, we source the best plants, trees and design elements for your unique space. We install, plant, and implement each element in a way that’s respectful to your property, your neighborhood, and the ecosystem in which you live. When that’s all done, we act as an ongoing resource, giving you access to education and support to help you get the most from your garden year after year.


Our Own Evolution

Gardenalia began in 2002 as an urban garden boutique. At the forefront of the eco trend in gardening, ours was the first and only store of its kind in Pittsburgh’s East End. From the beginning, Gardenalia emphasized container gardening, garden design, natural decorating, and organic gardening.

Over the years, our focus has evolved from offering premium garden supplies in a bricks-and-mortar store to creating outdoor living spaces on properties throughout the Pittsburgh area. We left our squeaky-clean storefront to get our hands dirty — quite literally.
