Midcentury houses in the woods deserve gardens with the same restraint. New Canaan is shade gardening country — and some of the heaviest deer pressure in the county.
What we know about New Canaan
- Shade layers under mature canopy: ferns, hellebores and woodland natives
- Deer-resistant borders composed to read as designed, not defensive
- Clean lines and sculpted evergreens that respect modern architecture
- Granite ledge: we design with the rock, not against it
We’ve designed, built and tended properties across New Canaan for years — we know its soil, its permitting office and its weather.
