5 Easy steps to a DIY Dynamic Design

  • Measure your space. Note sun exposure and identify “north”, any obstacles (utility box, tree, etc.), and soil conditions (clay, sandy, etc.). Graph sheet is available in-store or to download here.
  • Take photos of the space from different angles. Print if possible.
  • Contact your local Earl May to set up and appointment at the garden center. Bring your measurements and photos with you.
  • Together, we will review your design ideas and photos, walk the nursery yard to discuss plant likes and dislikes, and project budget.
  • During your appointment, we will provide you with a rough sketch of the plant layout, and suggest types and quantities of plants needed.


Purchase of a $200 Earl May gift card is required when scheduling an appointment. This gift card is yours to use toward the purchase of plant and nursery stock.
