Create a Thriving Garden in the Heart of the City

Boost your property value with a focus on sustainability

Creating Lush Green Spaces for Decades

City dwellers may think that lush landscapes or gardens aren’t possible in small spaces. We’re here to tell you that this simply is not true. There are plenty of ways to foster greenery in suburban and urban settings—even in St. Louis, Missouri.

The experts at Poynter Landscape Architecture & Construction help you decide which plants are best for your specific space and bring your landscape visions to life, all while encouraging biodiversity in suburban and urban environments.

Your Perfect Garden Space Awaits

Healthy food security, a boost to mental health, offering a cool outdoor space, erosion control, improving property values, having a positive impact on your local ecosystem—there are plenty of reasons why outdoor greenery and gardens are worth cultivating.

When you want a new garden, Poynter Landscape Architecture & Construction will be with you every step of the way.

Designing the Space

It all starts here.

Our team works closely with you to learn your wants, budget, timeline, and unique property features that can impact plantings. From designing ambitious rooftop gardens, fine-tuned community gardens, and top-of-the-line hydroponic systems, the only limitations at this stage are your own creativity.

Choosing the Right Plants

You decide what type of outdoor space you want—a raised garden bed, a vegetable garden, a vertical gardening space, a green landscape lush with trees and hardscape features, or something else. We help you decide which plants are best suited for your unique property, keeping in mind climate, growing seasons, and soil health.

St. Louis offers a unique climate, often having 95°+ weather in the summer and single digits in the winter. In addition to the weather, St. Louis also has challenging clay soils that require irrigation. You need plants that not only survive in these unique conditions, but thrive.

We plant and maintain it all, including:

  • Shade trees
  • Ornamental trees
  • Evergreen trees
  • Shrubs
  • Flowering plants, including both annuals and perennials
  • Microgreens
  • Fruits and veggies

Starting the Project

After finalizing design details and the types of plants you want, our team gets to work making your vision a reality, from the loftiest private balcony garden to the most inviting of urban farming spaces in community centers.

Following Up

Besides planting, we also walk you through basic upkeep and expert gardening tips for your new greenery, including details on the best mulches and garden soil, how to encourage pollinators to visit your space, and whether certain pesticides make sense for your home.

Guaranteeing Satisfaction

We’re not satisfied unless you’re satisfied. We follow up with all our clients to ensure the utmost customer satisfaction. Even the slightest detail is worth examining so that you get the garden you deserve.
