Biography:

Jennifer Voss' understanding and zeal for horticulture and garden design evolved from her life experiences in Santa Barbara and botanical studies. As a child, her grandparents took their grandchildren to the Los Angeles Arboretum on weekends to feed the peacocks and wander through the gardens and bamboo forests. In retirement, her grandfather grew succulents and cacti, while her grandmother nurtured more ornamental plants such as Camellias, Hydrangeas and Boxwood. They also knew the names of all the plants in their Arcadia neighborhood.

As her life evolved and her friends began to purchase homes, she became the resident expert on garden design and plant care. She has visited hundreds of gardens throughout England, France, Italy and the U.S. Eventually her love of gardens and design developed into a full time vocation. With hundreds of projects to her credit, she has achieved a true love for landscape design and continues to develop her design skills.

Jennifer's focus encompasses landscape consulting, garden and patio design, outdoor lighting and irrigation. Her experience ranges from large estates to modest homes, public gardens, hotels, apartment complexes, corporate campuses, wineries and other commercial projects.
