Hanselman Landscape

Founded in 1985, Hanselman Landscape and Gardens designs, builds, and nurtures a wide variety of gardens in both private and corporate settings. From our headquarters in Manheim, Pennsylvania, we serve clients throughout the region, including Philadelphia's Main Line-and as far away as Cambridge, Massachusetts. We also cultivate unique specimen plants which we make available to discriminating gardeners and architects.

Since long-term relationships and successful gardens fit naturally, we work hard to earn trust at every level as we bring the joy of natural beauty into our clients' lives. With unique solutions to complex challenges, Hanselman Landscape's garden design experts will embrace your home with a custom-tailored, sustainable landscape design. Japanese gardens, swimming pool landscapes with refreshing waterfalls, and carefully-pruned specialty plants are just a few of the ways we can bring natural beauty into your daily experience.

Enhance the beauty of your garden-Beautiful gardens require vision--not just to see what is, but to see what will be. This vision drives our garden maintenance service. It assures the steady growth of your plants' health, beauty, and value by providing timely, skilled garden care. Since plants are living organisms which grow and respond to their surroundings, change is inevitable. Our commitment is to direct this change with high-quality care so that your garden becomes more beautiful and valuable as it matures.

A patio designed and installed by Hanselman Landscape can do so much to bring joy to your lives and garden! Creative use of space-With a thoughtfully-designed patio you can extend your living and entertaining space into your garden, and provide areas for intimate family gatherings or large group functions. Hanselman Landscape can add outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, and seating walls to increase the function and attractiveness of your elegant outdoor entertainment center. Well-constructed garden rooms-A patio, as a floor to an outdoor 'room', affects the feel of the garden by its size, pattern, texture and perimeter.

One of our favorite ways of bringing joy to our clients' gardens is with the addition of outdoor fire pits or fireplaces. Although some townships do not permit open fire pits, most will allow outdoor hearths. Warmth-There are few sights more welcoming on chilly nights than a blazing campfire or a glowing hearth. The smell of wood smoke on a crisp, cool autumn evening brings to mind campfire cookouts with children, and quiet conversations with friends. Memories-Many clients are rediscovering these fireside joys by adding fire pits or outdoor fireplaces in their gardens.

The joy and serenity of a beautiful, well-planned garden can be quickly hidden behind an overgrowth of weeds. However, a weed-free garden requires the commitment of time and energy. This is where we can help. Flexibly priced-Our weed control programs have different price points depending on the level of care you desire. We can visit occasionally to treat the weeds that cause you the most trouble, or we can visit frequently to keep your garden beds looking pristine and weed-free. The choice is yours.

Irrigation systems installed by Hanselman Landscape save time, conserve water, keep your plants healthy, and protect your garden investment. Dependable efficiency-For most busy professionals, a timed drip irrigation system is a necessity. The benefits of labor savings, reliably-accomplished watering chores, and healthy plants make the expenditure more than worthwhile. Contact us if you would like to take advantage of the ease, savings, and dependability of an irrigation system in your garden. Flexible conservation-Our systems use much less water than hand watering or sprinklers; state laws even allow for our irrigation systems during droughts.

Hanselman Landscape offers regular garden maintenance to promote the health and beauty of your garden investment and to protect your valuable plants from plant pests and diseases. Partnership-Do you enjoy beautiful works of art? Are you an instinctive nurturer? Do you take pleasure in growing things? We would love to partner with you! We are looking for enthusiastic garden owners who are invested in the health and beauty of their gardens. A partnership may be as simple as training you to care for your own plants, or as involved as regular visits where we prune your plants and protect your garden from pests and diseases.

Designing a garden is an exciting and rewarding endeavor. No matter what kind of garden design you are in the market for-patio garden, Japanese garden, swimming pool garden, or even a commercial garden-our proven process delivers results that are customized to your particular needs and which will grow with you through the years. Explore-During our free consultation, we listen to your goals, inspirations, and ideas, and answer any questions you may have. Together, we'll explore ways to help you reach your garden dreams, keeping your garden budget in mind.

Plant pests are numerous and are often difficult to detect. In addition, they tend to spread quickly and are difficult to eradicate. Hanselman Landscape crew members can protect your garden from the threat of plant pests, and are able to limit the damage that is done by quick identification and effective treatment. Regular monitoring-Many clients combine our Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program with regularly-scheduled pruning visits to achieve the greatest care and value for their gardens. Our IPM program involves regular visits to a client's property to observe, detect and treat any pest problems that arise.

From the roar of a towering waterfall to the gentle murmur of a brook, water can evoke awe, elation and serenity. Hanselman Landscape has the privilege of bringing the added value and sensory delights of water features to the gardens and daily experiences of clients all across Central Pennsylvania. We would be pleased to do the same for you. Careful planning and installation-It is important to us that the water features we build appear to be integrated into the landscape or garden, rather than stuck on as an afterthought.

Landscape lighting is an efficient way to extend the useability of your garden, while highlighting special features and creating a softer, more intimate ambiance in the same space. Simplicity and elegance-Landscape lighting allows you to enjoy your garden into the night, and opens a new way to experience the same environment. With well-planned lighting, intimacy and privacy are heightened, and no glare interrupts your view. As Michelle, one of our best long-term clients, phrased it, "You can see faces, but you can also see the stars!"
