Gardenscapers.

~ Beauty Designed Around You ~

We are not “Landscapers”, we are “Gardenscapers”.

We don’t build retaining walls, walkways or patios. We specialize in bringing neglected gardens back to life, enhancing existing gardens and creating new dramatic bedding designs. We are also experts at using plants you already have, resulting in a renovated new garden. 

We artfully select and combine perennials along with annuals, shrubs and bulbs creating a long season of beauty and interest for your Minnesota garden; working towards a parade of continuous blooms.

Gardens are as diverse as the people who tend them. But whether you have a green thumb or not, everyone can appreciate a beautiful garden.

Your garden is a special place. It has the power to create the peace, purpose and pleasure we all need in our lives. So, if you’re looking for garden inspiration and design ideas for your outdoor spaces, look no further.

We design gardens and flower containers taking into account the space size, the amount of shade or sun and required maintenance. Then carefully combine varied leaf colors, plant textures and blooms creating beautiful gardens and displays to enjoy for years to come.

Lynn is a Master Gardener certified through the University of Minnesota. She is also a member of the Minnesota Nursery & Landscape Association and the Minneapolis Garden Club.

Get things done the right way

Why should you choose us?

I had Lynn design and install a perennial garden 3 years ago. It turned out great and looks better every year. The Hydrangea tree (gorgeous) is the focus and I have some shrubs, grasses. perennials and annuals. Wow! Lynn is very hard-working, knowledgeable, flexible and fun to work with! She comes highly recommended!  ~ Robyn Ingalls
Gardens by Lynn designed and planted a border for the edge of my yard -- they did a great job choosing just the right plants and listening to my preferences. They were also very friendly and timely. Lynn was also very helpful in recommending a landscaper for sodding and edging work. Good Value. I would recommend this business. ~ Lynn Stokke
Lynn came out and transformed our sad little front yard plants into a beautiful garden space. It looks fantastic! She was very professional and easy to work with. I especially appreciated her willingness to utilize and help clean up/shape existing plants and use a few others we were able to provide rather than just completely ripping everything out and starting from scratch with only her product. I wholeheartedly recommend Gardens By Lynn and will be using her services again! ~ Scott Ackermann
I had the best experience with Lynn and her nice crew! Over the years my garden has become very large. My goals were to have someone come in and make sense of it. I needed a designer’s eye for this project. I wanted someone to organize it and add focal points. I wanted it to become smaller with the goal of it being less work for me and attempt to obscure my view of a neighbors unsightly yard. Lynn was so easy to work with and very patient. She chose shrubs and hostas for me and also rearranged my own plants using them to brighten up dark areas. I am thrilled with the outcome! ~ Mary Jo Brouillard
My gardens look better than they have in years. Lynn and her team are a joy to work with! As a designer, Lynn is down-to-earth and open to collaboration. She really paid attention to what I was looking for. Also, her team has clearly been working together for a long time and were so cheerful while onsite. I will definitely use Lynn’s services in the future. ~ Kristina Halvorson
Lynn, Kathy, and team were great! They restored our dead flower beds into beautiful, blooming gardens. They worked with us to pick out the right mix of flowers/plants and helped us navigate snow on the hill weeds. They are hard working, kind, and knowledgeable people who have made us feel great about our yard again. Can't recommend them enough! ~ Matt Gallivan
Lynn designed a fabulous new garden bed by our front entry. She is knowledgeable in what shrub/flower combinations go together. Lynn, Kathy and Katherine are hardworking, efficient, and also pay great attention to detail. A job that I thought might take 2 days to complete was completed by mid afternoon the same day They are a pleasant and a fun team to work with. I would highly recommend them for your garden needs.
We have worked with Lynn for several years. Great communication, great follow-up with projects and is always open to our suggestions and changes if needed. Lynn and her team are true professionals. ~ Ted, Tonka Bay, MN
Gardens by Lynn has created beautiful window box arrangements for our home for the past 2 years. Their work always looks so amazing and we are consistently impressed by their design aesthetic, professionalism and friendliness. We get compliments from friends, family and neighbors all the time. Lynn and her team are the best and we look forward to them returning every season!
  Lynn is a Master Gardener and has great knowledge of wildflowers. Our wildflower garden was damaged and Lynn walked around with us to see what would work and where. She then drew up a plan and presented it to us and we hired her. Lynn had so many great ideas and she was able to find the varieties of plants we wanted. They replaced over 200 wildflowers. They were very efficient.~ Doug and Bev.
Lynn is a gardener extraordinaire! We've been lucky enough to have Lynn design and plant our flower gardens over the past few years. She does an amazing job and we could not be more pleased! Lynn also creates our seasonal planters which are truly spectacular. ~ Tammy, Deephaven, MN
