Avondale & Riverside landscape design

Northeast Florida

Lisa knows Avondale & Riverside.

Avondale and Riverside are the soul of historic Jacksonville. Bungalows, Tudors, Mediterranean revival, brick walks, and yards that should look as old as the houses, in the best possible way.

These homes want cottage layers, soft curves, and heirloom plant choices. We design with old-world florals, a generous use of evergreen structure, and bed lines that follow the bones of the property. No sterile foundation hedges. No mass-market boxwoods. Salvaged brick where the design calls for it, and plant palettes that look like they've been there since the house was built.

Serving 32205, 32204 and the Boone Park, the Shoppes of Avondale, Memorial Park area.

Plant Palette

What thrives here.

Heirloom Camellia

Winter bloom, formal but warm. Perfect for a 1920s bungalow.

Confederate Jasmine

Fragrant, evergreen, climbs a porch column beautifully.

Coral Honeysuckle (native)

Cottage charm, hummingbird food, blooms long.

Pentas

Pollinator color, holds through Jacksonville summers.

Old Garden Roses

Where the sun and the architecture both deserve them.
