At EcoBridge, we offer full-service landscaping, from design to installation. Part of our blueprint for stunning, low-maintenance gardens in North Vancouver is selecting the right plants for the topography and microclimate of your unique property.
BC is well known for its lush landscapes, diverse wildlife, and abundant natural beauty. However, many of our clients in North Vancouver find it difficult to maintain healthy and robust landscapes. Challenges may include shady yards, large trees, sloping, excessively wet springs, and increasingly dry summers. In most cases, our answer is planting BC natives. In other words, we choose stunning combinations of indigenous plant species that have evolved to thrive in the distinct soil, climate, and cultural conditions around your home.
From the butterfly-enticing kinnikinnick to fresh sword ferns, Vancouver’s native flora brings your garden a diverse range of colours, textures, and fragrances. These plants also support local ecosystems, providing habitat to wildlife, regulating water and nutrient cycling, and contributing to biodiversity.

Stunning Gardens in North Vancouver (and Beyond)
We proudly collaborate with homeowners, developers, and landscape designers. As a team offering full-service landscaping in North Vancouver, we recommend natives for planting and landscape installation, especially if your objective is a healthy, robust growth with low maintenance needs. BC plants are well-adjusted to North Vancouver’s often variable climate, withstanding wet winters and dry summers.
