Landscape Design Services in Draper

Draper sits in the far southeast corner of the Salt Lake Valley, with the Wasatch Mountains rising to the east and Traverse Ridge to the south. The Point of the Mountain is a world‑renowned site for hang gliding and paragliding because of its consistent, strong winds. These same winds and slopes shape our Plants and Softscape work—calling for wind‑tolerant plantings, terraced gardens and sturdy retaining walls. We design outdoor spaces that capture panoramic views while shielding patios and play areas from gusts, so you can enjoy your hilltop property in comfort.

Because Draper sits away from the moderating influence of the Great Salt Lake, its winters are slightly drier and its temperature swings more dramatic than other Salt Lake suburbs. Average temperatures range from 30–50 °F in winter to 80–100 °F in summer, with monsoonal thunderstorms in July and August and regular snow from November through March. Our Landscape Design offerings are crafted for this cool‑to‑warm semi‑arid environment: we build water‑wise landscapes that stay lush through hot, dry spells, include rain‑capture and drainage systems for sudden storms, and choose materials that endure freeze‑thaw cycles. Whether you’re updating a foothill home or a new build near the tech hub at the Point, we create outdoor spaces that stand up to Draper’s dynamic climate.

We install perennials, shrubs, trees and flowers that anchor your landscape and bring it to life. Working from a complete design—whether provided by you or created by our in‑house team—we select species that thrive in the local climate and soil. These plantings are integrated with patios, pools, fire pits and other features to create harmony across the whole site. The right mix of heights, textures and colours gives your yard four‑season appeal in Draper or anywhere.

Softscape refers to the groundcover and bedding materials that aren’t grass. We lay bark, mulch, chat, gravel, granite and other rock to define garden beds and create walking paths. These materials suppress weeds, conserve soil moisture and support xeriscaping principles, reducing maintenance and irrigation. A crisp mulch edge or smooth gravel path is the finishing touch that makes your landscape feel intentional.

Plants and softscapes often account for up to 30% of a landscape project’s budget, and they’re what make a design pop. A well‑chosen evergreen hedge, flowering tree or ornamental grass provides structure and color, while complementary mulch or gravel ties everything together. Thoughtful selection and placement in your Draper garden create a cohesive look and deliver lasting value.
