Our story

A studio built for the long view.

ApexGreen started in a Zilker driveway in 2011 with one truck, one crew, and a conviction that landscaping in Central Texas needed to change.

We were tired of watching new landscapes fail their second summer — thirsty lawns, imported plants that couldn't take the heat, irrigation bills that climbed year after year.

So we built a studio around a different premise: the land is telling you what to plant. Listen to it, and you'll build a garden that gets easier, more beautiful, and more alive every single season.

Today we're a team of designers, horticulturists, and craftspeople serving Austin and the Hill Country. Every project is designed and installed by the same crew, from the first walk-through to the tenth season.

Full Xeriscape & Meadow

ApexGreen completely transformed our front yard from dying St. Augustine sod into an undulating tapestry of Texas sages, agaves, and native grasses. During the 105-degree summer stretch, our garden stayed lush while our water bill dropped by over 65%.

Limestone Terraces & Patio

Our steep hillside was eroding after every cloudburst. The ApexGreen team designed dry-stacked limestone terraces that look as if they've been here for a century, flanked by shade-loving inland sea oats and redbuds. Exceptional stonework and true ecological insight.

Pollinator Haven & Smart Drip

From the very first site walk, their plant knowledge stood out. They selected perennials that attract hummingbirds and monarch butterflies throughout spring and autumn. It feels like having a private Hill Country sanctuary right outside our backdoor.

Heritage Oak Canopy Care

We have two 150-year-old live oaks that were struggling under thirsty lawn roots. ApexGreen crafted an expansive native understory with rain garden bioswales that absorb storm runoff without stressing our heritage trees. Pure craftsmanship.

Courtyard & Water Feature

In an urban lot with tight setbacks, ApexGreen created a peaceful courtyard retreat with steel trellis screens, fragrant mountain laurels, and a recirculating basalt water fountain. Clean, punctual, and meticulously detailed crew.

Savanna Prairie Restoration

Two years in, our 1.5-acre property looks richer each season. ApexGreen's follow-up care and soil nourishment ensure that our native grasses and wildflowers return with even greater vigor every spring without chemical fertilizers.
