Favorite Outdoor Feature..
Matt enjoys designing inviting outdoor spaces with large flagstone or 24-inch pavers leading to a cozy patio featuring built-in seating. He often completes the space with a fountain or a bold specimen plant to create a welcoming destination for relaxing and entertaining.
Pollinator pick...
Matt's favorite pollinator palette includes Grevillea, Butterfly Bush (Buddleia), Yarrow (Achillea), Lavender, Kangaroo Paw, and the California native Island Snapdragon. Together, these plants provide long-lasting blooms that attract hummingbirds, bees, butterflies, and other beneficial pollinators while adding vibrant color and texture to the landscape.
