CAPTIVATING GARDEN WATER FEATURES
Water is one of the most interesting elements to include in a garden. A rushing cascade, a musical trickle, or a tranquil reflecting pond all elicit simple pleasures.
METICULOUSLY CRAFTED
An awareness of how water flows in nature, matched with Hanselman Landscape’s unrelenting standards and attention to detail have brought the interest, serenity, and natural beauty of enduring water features into the gardens of many happy clients.
EMULATING NATURE WITH LASTING BEAUTY
To emulate nature, Hanselman Landscape crafts raised stream banks so that the water flows naturally in a ‘valley’. We select stone with realistic proportions and attractive form and patina, and position it on stable foundations in credible rhythm with its environs.

Testimonials
What surprised us most was how much more we love our home since Hanselman Landscape began working here! In addition to the beautiful new backyard oasis they created, they are here regularly to care for our plants, turning existing shrubs that we thought were worthless into beautiful, valuable specimens.
Our needs were to have as much privacy as possible from neighboring homes. Everything was done to perfection. This was the first time in a while (even with building a new home) that we gave the job to someone and never, ever had to go over again and again what was to be done.
Words do not serve well to express the sense of serenity and pleasure which your fine work evokes. I would liken the feeling to that of walking alone through a great museum.
I can’t even put into words how much I love my new yard. Hanselman Landscape did an outstanding job–changing an ugly piece of land into a serene and beautiful garden. The workmanship of Hanselman Landscape’s employees is of the highest quality.
Hanselman Landscape has helped us re-landscape our property over the past 3 years. James has a way of guiding you through your own garden, taking in the vantage points, and uncovering your vision (even though you didn’t know you had one)!
We liked the way James (Hanselman) explained and introduced the suggested plantings, actually showing us leaf samples. We needed and appreciated his guidance. Thanks for adding to our enjoyment of our home with your creative landscaping.
