Ted Maro
Ted Maro has been in the landscape industry for 28 years. He received a Bachelor Degree of Landscape Architecture from the University of Minnesota. His portfolio includes a large variety of residential designs. Ted uses his job site experience to develop creative designs along with integrating his strong knowledge of maintenance requirements for plants and construction materials. He believes the yard should be designed as an outdoor room. The public and private spaces in the yard should have different feels to them. Ted enjoys using perennials, shrubs, evergreens, ornamental trees, shade trees, to create a layering affect in the landscape. He feels each design should mirror the customer's personality as well as their lifestyle. Each step of the process is important, from initial consultation, to the design process, through the installation. Ted believes by using this technique each customer will have a landscape they can enjoy and be proud of now and in the future.
