Custom Landscape Design in Boise, ID
Landscape Design for Every Kind of Yard
Maybe you just moved here and aren’t sure what grows in Idaho. Maybe you’ve lived here for years and you’re finally ready for a yard you love. Either way, a good design is where it all starts.
We create site-specific plans for properties of every size, from a narrow side yard to a full estate. Whether you’re dreaming of a drought tolerant xeriscape, a cottage garden packed with color or a lush English garden, we’ll design a landscape that fits your home, your budget and the way you want to live.
I moved here from California and was used to having a lush yard year-round. Guess what? You can have those blooms here too. Maybe not 365 days a year, but you can still enjoy your favorite plants and flowers.
How Our Design Process Works
Every design starts with getting to know you and your property. From there, you choose how much detail your project needs.

Initial Consultation
We walk your property with you, check your soil and microclimates and talk through your goals and how you want to use your space.

2D Concept Designs
Realistic renderings that show how your yard will look once everything is planted and grown in.

Overhead Layout Plans
A bird’s-eye plan of your zones, dimensions and structures, perfect for most residential projects.

Architectural Plans
Complete plan sets for larger estates that need structural engineering or city permitting.

Installation
Once you love your design, our licensed crew builds it, plants it and can take care of it for years to come.
Designed for Idaho
Idaho has hot, dry summers, cold winters and soil that can be tough to work with. A design that works in California won’t always work here. That’s why we pick every plant with your property in mind, from drought tolerant perennials for a sunny front yard to shade lovers for the spot under your biggest tree.
We think about how your yard will look in every season too. Evergreens, winter interest and spring bulbs all get planned in from the start, so your landscape looks good in January and not just June.

We used HTD for our backyard makeover and it thoroughly exceeded our expectations. From the patio extension that was dyed and stamped to match our existing patio to the plantings all around the yard everything was done professionally and with us, the customer, in mind. The crews that did the work were all cordial and friendly and would consult with us if there were any questions. Taylor was always available if we had questions and never balked if we had any last minute changes. From start to finish she never said “no” to any of our ideas, instead it was always let me see what we can do to make this work. All in all it was an amazing experience made even more enjoyable working with such a professional team.Posted on Google![]()

Engaging Hope Taylor Design to transform our front and side yard was the best decision we’ve made. From beginning to end she brought her design expertise, creativity and thoughtful plans to life. I appreciate that she listened to what I liked and suggested what would work in our space. She brought in highly professional staff to accomplish every task. We are truly grateful for our beautiful landscaping and recommend Hope Taylor Design for all landscaping projects.Posted on Google![]()

Wow!!! What amazing service from Hope Taylor Landscape Design! She returned my call promptly when no one else would. She was great at communicating with me and had a tree guy (Phil) out the next day to get the job done. She made it work even though she is also very busy. Both Taylor and Phil were nice as can be, knowledgeable and handled everything professionally. Couldn’t be happier! WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND 😊Posted on Google![]()

Ken, Ron & Wesley did amazing work! We had a complicated design where they connected a new cover to one we had built years ago. The two areas were different heights, and they not only made it work, but also made the design of the two parts match perfectly!
