Imagine stepping outside and being greeted by color, texture, and life in every season, not just in spring, but all through summer and into fall. That’s the power of thoughtful garden design. With the right mix of bulbs, perennials, and shrubs, your garden can bloom in waves, ensuring something magical is always in season.
That’s where Ritchie’s Green Team comes in. Our landscape designers know how to layer plants so each season has its moment to shine. From the first tulips peeking through snow to fall shrubs blazing with color, we’ll help you build a garden that feels alive year-round.
Spring: A Fresh Start
Spring sets the tone with bright, cheerful blooms that lift your spirits after winter. Bulbs like tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, and crocuses create splashes of color early on. Shrubs such as forsythia, serviceberry, and lilacs fill the air with fragrance and delicate blossoms. Together, these early risers announce the new season in style.
Summer: A Season in Full Bloom
Summer brings richness and abundance. Perennials like daylilies, coneflowers, and black-eyed Susans ensure continuous waves of color. Shrubs such as hydrangeas and spireas add volume and long-lasting blooms, while bulbs like alliums and lilies create dramatic accents. With the right design, your garden will feel vibrant and full of life well into the warmest months.
Fall: A Grand Finale
Just because the days get shorter doesn’t mean your garden has to fade away. Fall-blooming perennials like asters and goldenrods keep pollinators happy late into the season. Shrubs such as witch hazel, viburnum, and red-osier dogwood bring fiery foliage, late flowers, and berries that brighten the landscape. The result is a finale of color that carries your garden gracefully into winter.
Designed for Every Season
At Ritchie’s, we don’t just place plants—we design experiences. Our Green Team takes into account bloom times, color palettes, plant heights, and textures to create a garden that feels balanced and ever-changing. The goal? A landscape that offers something new to enjoy in spring, summer, and fall.
With the right mix, each flower and shrub will bloom in its season, weaving together a garden that feels magical all year long.
