ValleyCrest Companies Launches New Residential Landscape Design, Build and Maintenance Division for Southern California's Most Discerning Estate Owners

Estate Gardens by ValleyCrest Aims to Be the New Doyen of Luxury Garden Design

Oct 4, 2006

ValleyCrest Companies, one of the nation's most established and well-respected landscape firms, proudly announces the launch of its first full-service residential landscape design, construction and maintenance practice -- Estate Gardens by ValleyCrest. With a team of established landscape architects, experienced contractors and trained horticulturists, Estate Gardens offers integrated design, build and long-term maintenance services to its roster of elite clients. For the most discerning estate owner who desires the highest level of personal service, Estate Gardens will distinguish itself as an undisputed leader in luxury garden design.

Estate Gardens has engaged an impressive trio of elite landscape architects to lead the new practice, as well as work with a team of other experienced designers. Landscape Architects Daniel Weedon, Bruce Meeks, and Russell Cletta are each widely recognized in the industry for their creativity and vision and have collectively designed hundreds of luxury gardens, ranging from the contemporary to the classical. Their work has been featured in Garden Design, Sunset Magazine, Los Angeles Magazine, Celebrated Living and on many HGTV's programs. Both Weedon and Meeks managed their own landscape design practices in the past while Cletta comes to Estate Gardens from Los Angeles-based design firm Griffith and Cletta, Inc., where he was a partner. Together, Weedon, Meeks, and Cletta have more than 50 years of experience shaping the gardens of some of this City's best, brightest, and most beautiful estates. Overseeing Estate Gardens by ValleyCrest as General Manager is distinguished horticulturalist Brian Helgoe. With the unique ability to deliver an unsurpassed level of personal service -- from creative counsel to design and implementation, through long-term maintenance -- Estate Gardens promises to build an impressive roster of clients.

"Estate Gardens represents a new breed of luxury landscaping," said Helgoe. "With ValleyCrest Companies' extensive experience and resources at our disposal, we offer clients a level of ease and efficiency that no other firm can offer. Working with a single company to design, build, and maintain a garden preserves the integrity of the design and brings all the elements of the landscape plan together as a whole."

From vast expanses to secluded spaces and stylized landscapes to naturalistic gardens, Estate Gardens can design, build, and maintain privately-commissioned, custom landscaped environments that reflect the individual style and taste of each client. From contemporary sanctuaries to exotic tropical oases, Estate Gardens skillfully blends hardscape and softscape design elements to create exceptional outdoor living spaces. From flowing waterfalls to sculpted pathways, romantic pergolas to koi ponds, native plants to bright colorful blossoms, Estate Gardens has perfected the art of luxury garden design.

"At Estate Gardens, we believe that gardens are as unique as the people who love and live in them," said Helgoe. "Our creative process is very collaborative and we work closely as a team to ensure that our clients' outdoor living space reflects their individual style and character. Once the garden is completed, Estate Gardens can continue to monitor and maintain the garden to ensure that our clients' landscape investment, and peace of mind, remains intact for years to come."
