Dry stream beds offer a naturalistic touch to the garden which when designed properly can double as a highly sustainable storm water management element via capturing and percolating water into our aquifers.

plant sourcing

Design for any site starts with a detailed microclimate analysis in order to better understand what plants will work best where.  Years of field experience and a strong connection to local nurseries allows Krusa Land Design Studio to know just where to go to find the best specimens available on-island.  Our experienced staff will hand pick each plant based upon a combination of health/vigor/disease potential, proper root development, strong physical structure, and general aesthetics.
