Toronto’s Landscaping Company
Our city has its share of experienced landscape companies. Toronto’s urban residents in Lawrence Park, Rosedale, Forest Hill, North Toronto, Bridle Path and Hoggs Hollow contract businesses like ours to perform a huge variety of specialized and non-specialized tasks on their properties. However, not all of these Toronto landscaping companies approach their landscape design and construction projects with the same level of care that our team does.
Landscaping allows homeowners like you to put a personal stamp on the green space you see most often, and since it is so personal, it makes sense for you to work closely with the landscaping company you choose. To ensure we get it right, we listen to your story – we take the time to get to know our customers on a personal level. And we want you to know us too.

Platinum LEED® Certified Gardens
Toronto’s first Platinum LEED® Canada Certification
In 2012, Lawrence Park became part of a team that made history, achieving Toronto’s first Platinum LEED® Canada Certification for a residential property, the highest level attainable for environmental sustainability.
Criteria for Landscaping Projects
The project’s incredibly stringent criteria for the landscaping portion included water usage efficiency and the use of eco-friendly materials and resources.
To receive Platinum LEED® Canada Certification, all landscaping design projects in our service area of Lawrence Park, Rosedale, Forest Hill, North Toronto, Bridle Path and Hoggs Hollow must adhere to the following guidelines:
- No non-native plants could be used.
- Turf had to be drought-tolerant and not used in densely shaded areas or on slopes with a gradient of 25% or more.
- Mulch had to be used to reduce erosion and water loss, as well as to regulate soil temperature.
- Soil had to be tilled to a specific depth. Plants, too, had to be drought-tolerant to achieve a target for reduced water demand.
The design also needed to respect microclimate impacts to reduce local heat-island effects, and the irrigation system had to meet its own set of stringent requirements…and these are just a few of the strict criteria required for Platinum LEED® certification.
So if environmental sustainability is high on your list of priorities, we know what to do and can apply many or all of the same standards to your project.

Tropical Paradise with Artificial Turf
This property in mid-town Toronto conjures up the views, scents and colours of a Tropical Paradise.
READ MORE
… The Client entertains in a poolside setting with many tropical plants to maintain like Agapanthus, Hibiscus, Bouganvilleas and Birds of Paradise.
The frustration of dense shade led to the installation of Artificial Turf in Front and Poolside, which, although not needing to be cut, does need to be kept clean and free of debris. The appearance of natural turf is achieved by rolling the mowers over it to create the “lines” of fresh-cut grass. The root systems and general health of the mature Beech and Maples are maintained in these unusual conditions.
The back Gardens are afforded plenty of privacy by perimeter hedges and lots of lush gardens of Annuals and Perennials.

The existing back yard had a patio in place composed of large flagstone. However, the patio was incorrectly laid on pea gravel …
READ MORE
… and as a result, the stones shifted out of place. Drainage issues were a problem with the home, and the original 1960ʼs installation was dated and crumbling. River rock embedded in concrete had to be removed, as well as elevation changes that were compounding the drainage problems.
The house has a very unique style that we were able to work with when designing the new landscape. The patio was lifted and new gravel base materials were added, the existing flagstone was re-used and additional stone added to enlarge the patio. A rectangular banding pattern was used to add definition. A wooden Arbor was installed to support the existing mature Wisteria Vine.
The previous entryway to the back yard was narrow and awkward. Interlocking brick was installed at the side of the house for ease of access and storage. The Arbor, and widened entranceway to the back helped to create a much more appealing and functional entranceway into the back garden. All plant materials had to be very shade tolerant, and some native species were used.
