Young, innovative, edgy, and creative combined with determination, experience, knowledge, and love of horticulture. Canopy Gardens was developed by two young men with a passion and connection to the outdoors. Nicholas Irwin and Mercer Gunnels have each received a Bachelors degree of Science in Horticulture with an emphasis in landscape design from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

Ultimately, the business has drawn like minded individuals with similar passions and interests. From the massing of a single species to create a flowing ambience of plant material, to a stacked random pattern natural stone wall, our team works efficiently and effectively.

Stonework

Report

Walls and patios are often referred to as the bones of a garden. They become the permanent framework of any well designed garden. Paths, gates, and terraces are what give the garden purpose, character and expression. A term we use often as designers is marry; our goal is to marry the home to the garden or the garden to the surrounding landscape.

Lighting

There is no suitable replacement for the natural illumination of the moon and stars. However, with a well designed landscape lighting plan your garden can surpass mother nature and become practical and useable at any hour of the day or night.

Wow is the first word that comes to mind. We had clean up done after moving into our new home and the crew of four was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. They did an amazing job and we will certainly invite them back.

Canopy Gardens takes great pride in the workmanship. This was a great experience from start to finish. Nick and Mercer brought our ideas to life and the result is fantastic. Their crew was professional and courteous and didn't leave each day until the site was cleaned up. Highly recommended.
