Why University Park Homeowners Pick Us

Landscape Design, Done Right.

Designed for North Texas

Plants chosen for our soil, sun, and water rules. No imported plant palettes that fail in Texas heat.

Native Plant Expertise

Deep familiarity with Texas natives, pollinator gardens, and water-wise design. Lower long-term cost, higher resilience.

Designed for How You Live

Front yard or back, entertaining space or low-maintenance retreat — the design starts with how you actually use your yard.

Landscape Design in University Park

University Park is the other half of the Park Cities — SMU-adjacent, mature canopies, generational lots. Family-owned, fifteen years working these blocks.

Park Cities standards.

Same exacting tree-protection, setback, and material rules as Highland Park. We work them. Every install is UP-compliant before the crew arrives.

Shade-heavy yards.

UP's mature canopy means a lot of yards never see full sun. We pick the grass cultivar that actually roots in your specific shade level and we say so honestly when ground cover or beds are the better call.

In-house Loera team.

Family business since 2010. Omar walks every property to scope the work himself.

Questions University Park Homeowners Ask

Landscape Design FAQ.

How long does a landscape design project take?

Concept to install is typically 3-6 weeks: one week for design, two weeks for review and refinement, one to three weeks for install depending on scope.

Do you do design-only?

Yes. We can deliver a written design package (layouts, plant list, care notes) you take to your own crew, or we design and install as one coordinated project.

Can you design a low-water garden?

Yes. Texas-native and Mediterranean-adapted palettes thrive on twice-a-week watering. Yarrow, salvia, lantana, agave, ornamental grasses, and rosemary are regulars in our designs.

What about edible / kitchen gardens?

Yes. Raised beds, herb spirals, integrated edible-ornamental designs. Tomatoes, peppers, herbs, and pollinators in the same bed.

Do you serve all of University Park?

Yes — anywhere inside UP city limits, from Hyer Park to SMU-adjacent blocks to Hillcrest.

What grass works best in University Park?

St. Augustine for the deepest shade. Palisades Zoysia where some sun gets through. Bermuda only where there's genuine full sun (rarer here than you'd think).

Watering rules / city ordinances for landscape design in University Park?

UP follows Dallas-area Stage 1 watering — twice a week on assigned days. New sod gets a 30-day variance.
