Maintenance — Petrus Landscape

This is a property with expansive lawns and an interesting combination of plants along its borders.One of the properties most striking features is when its David Austin Roses in the entryway are blooming in the early summer. Late in the summer its Crape Myrtle’s provides a striking display in the back yard.Many of the Westringias in the back yard are designed to be pruned into differently shaped spheres to create year round interest on the property.

Local Expertise

A deep understanding of Northern California landscapes

1

Climate & Ecology

We design with Northern California's Mediterranean climate rather than against it — reading each site's microclimate, soil, and light to select planting that thrives with restraint.

11

Architectural Context

Every estate is composed outward from its architecture, so the landscape feels inseparable from the residence — whether restored Spanish Colonial or contemporary design.

Long-Term Stewardship

The gardens we create are maintained by the atelier that built them, ensuring pruning, planting, and refinement follow the original design intent for decades.

The Invitation

Begin with a private consultation

Every Petrus estate begins with an unhurried conversation about your land, your architecture, and the life you wish to live outdoors.
