City landscapes for Hennepin County lots
Minneapolis yards are small stages: mature tree canopy overhead, shade underfoot, and every square yard visible from somewhere. Gardens here punch above their size, and the county's older neighborhoods take yard pride seriously.
A local landscaper designs for shade and scale, layered plantings, hardscape that earns its footprint, and screening that makes small feel private. The yard becomes an outdoor room, which is what city lots always wanted to be.
