Capturing California's native plant heritage in San Diego landscapes

California's Own Native Landscape Design (C-27 license number 717147) is a landscape contracting company that designs, installs, and maintains California native plant landscapes. We are based in Escondido, but work all over San Diego County and into southern Riverside. In addition to our design and build work we are available for on-site consultation, both for initial site assessment or should you desire to do the installation yourself. We are also specialists in oak rehabilitation and oak-related plantings.

Our natural garden designs can include many different styles, from highly ornamental to park-like in appearance. These landscapes have the added advantages of being wonderful habitat for birds and butterflies, low water use (drought-tolerant), and low maintenance. We usually include native herbs, with beautiful colors and scent.

In our designs we love to incorporate paths, sitting areas, benches, bridges, bird baths, patios, rocks and boulders, dry-streams (that become flowing creeks when it rains), and shade structures. If you are looking to re-capture a bit of California's lost natural identity, to surround yourself in pristine beauty, then we may be the right choice for you.
