We at Prairiescapes have been designing and installing native plant communities for over ten years. Our philosophy is simple. We take our inspiration from the native plant communities of the upper midwest and apply them to residential, commercial, and public landscapes. This translates into a natural look that is easy to maintain, beautiful, and provides habitat to microorganisms, insects, and birds. Call us for a free initial consultation.

We design and Install Native Plant Communities for Residential, Commercial, and Public Spaces
RESIDENTIAL
The possibilities for the use of native plant communities in residential landscapes are many. Through the use of turf grasses with native plant communities, we design and install landscapes that are dramatic, yet low maintenance, lush without looking unkempt. See our design philosophy section of this website.
Commercial
More and more, businesses are recognizing the value of native plant communities. Decreased maintenance, increased beauty and habitat add up to one word-- sustainability. The above landscape was seeded into sand and gravel. We did not water then, nor is it watered now. That's what we mean by sustainability!
Public Spaces
Municipalities, townships, and counties are increasingly promoting the use of more natural looking landscapes. Boulevards, alleys, roadsides--any spaces with soil provide opportunities for installing landscapes that retain water, stabilize the soil, and provide habitat for pollinators, as well as increase human enjoyment.
