Nursery Rhyme
Mary Quite Contrary knew precisely what to plant in her garden, but for those of us who can't tell our silver bells from our cockle shells there's Aloe Designs.
The local landscape designers have created Design in a Box. Their kit gets you a design consultation (not to mention a few cute extras like gardening gloves and a packet of seeds) which culminates in a blueprint for your outdoor space and all the nitty gritty details—from plant types to furniture recommendations—to do-it-yourself. Starting at $750 for a patio or small garden space, it also includes discounts from suppliers like Southlands Nursery and Inform Interiors.
Now you've got your pretty maids all in a row.
