Matthew Dressing, C.L.H.T.
Hello and welcome. My name is Matthew Dressing, landscape designer, Certified Landscape Horticulturist Technician, and owner of Natural Affinity Designs. Natural Affinity is a landscape deisgn and horticultural consultation firm operating in Durham Region and Greater Toronto Area.
Over the last 20 years I have worked in many sectors of the horticulture and landscaping industry including: landscape construction, landscape design, floral design, and lawn & garden maintenance. I have grown to understand the need to design and
develop low maintenance, sustainable garden experiences which compliment your lifestyle. Every project is a work of heart.
What I can help you with:
- Create a beautiful, low maintenance landscape design to fit your lifestyle.
- Identify and understand the unique conditions in your landscape.
- Identify oppurtunities to revitalize your existing landscape.
- Develop a comprehensive landscape maintenance plan to help you do it yourself.
- Lay out and plant annuals, perennials, trees and shrubs.
- Identify health, pest and disease issues with your plants and gardens.
- Create lush, unique, colourful planters for any season.
Matthew designed the landscaping for my house and I love it. He listened to what I wanted to do and knew my abilities as a gardener. I cannot say enough good things about this charming, funny, and wonderful landscape designer.
