Our Services
Garden Life’s team of experienced designers and fine gardening crews are guided by the principle “work smarter, not harder.” With proper design, implementation and followup care, maintenance can be reduced to fewer visits a year after just several growing seasons. These gardens are beyond sustainable—they are ecologically regenerative. These gardens, as living systems, create their own soil and mulch, provide food and shelter for wildlife, heal or fight plant diseases and require no additional watering or irrigation once established. Additionally, we aim to educate our clients in these practices so that they may participate in the growth of their gardens.
With our wide range of skills and experiences, Garden Life is committed to helping you achieve both large and small landscape and garden goals whether through consultation, design, enhancement and care.

“There are separate gardens on the property, but we want it all to feel continuous,” says Sliter. “She has worked with the Freemans for several years, and assists in the ever-evolving process of maintaining and improving the gardens In the rock garden, she used bulb plants such as dwarf irises, miniature tulips and crocuses. Within the rock garden is a smaller alpine garden with gentia, lewisia, a collection of heathers and a rare alpine opuntia (prickly pear cactus) that Sliter says is not often successfully cultivated.”
“Landscape designer Lizette Sliter, owner and founder of Garden Life in New London, specializes in garden rejuvenation projects, landscape design and seasonal care. When she has clients who want tulips in their gardens, she warns of the difficulties. ‘We begin with educating people of the obstacles since so many animals enjoy the tulip’s flower, foliage and bulbs for a tasty meal,’ Sliter says. ‘If you live in a deer yard, perhaps another choice of bulb is the best decision.’”
Born out of a commitment to think globally and act locally, Garden Life has joined the non-profit 1% For the Planet, pledging to donate one percent of our annual sales to support organizations focused on the environment.
