Landscape Design and Garden Care in
San Francisco

San Francisco gardens come with real constraints: fog, wind, steep grades, small lots, and microclimates that shift block by block. Fyrn Landscapes works across the city and knows how to design and maintain gardens that hold up to those conditions.


Rachael Fyrn offers both landscape design and ongoing garden care in San Francisco, with a focus on California natives, soil health, drip irrigation, and edible gardens.

Landscape Design

Every design starts with how you want to use your garden and what your site actually needs. That means working with your soil, light, and exposure before selecting plants. The result is a garden built for your specific conditions — lower maintenance over time, less water, and more life.

Garden Maintenance

Regular care keeps a garden healthy between seasons. Fyrn Landscapes offers ongoing maintenance visits covering pruning, weeding, soil amendment, irrigation checks, and seasonal planting. We work with gardens we've designed and gardens we inherit.
