Dale  Batchelor
Gardener by Nature's focus is consulting with clients who wish to create a home landscape that is both sustainable and maintainable.  As urbanization continues, the way we manage our landscapes plays an increasing role in supporting healthy populations of birds, pollinators, and other wildlife.

Our goal is to develop landscapes that are both sustainable and maintainable.  When designing, I believe it's very important to consider not only a site's physical characteristics, but also the existing and surrounding plant and animal communities.  For me, a garden is truly alive when it becomes a healthy, functioning ecosystem.        

I have experience designing, installing, and maintaining residential ornamental gardens from the foothills to the coastal plain.  Although I rarely meet a plant I don't like, my particular passion is plants native to the Southeastern United States.
