Our History

Classic Nursery & Landscape Company was founded in 1985. Family owned and originally located in Redmond, our new and expanded 10 acre garden center in Woodinville has a gift store with antiques, handmade gifts and work by local artists. We were fortunate to have been awarded an unprecedented two Green Globe awards from King County for our past wildlife education efforts and we have earned accolades from the Washington Association of Landscape Professionals and The Northwest Flower & Garden Show. A plan we designed is featured on the back cover of the first edition of The Sunset Western Landscaping Book. After almost 30 years at our Redmond Bear Creek location, we moved in 2012 to a new and larger facility at the former Olympic Nursery in Woodinville, bordering the Sammamish River Trail, just south of the winery area and part of King County's Farmland Preservation Program.

 You can never be too proud.

Classic is a 5 star King County Envirostar company and has been an Angie's List 'Super-service award' winner and Best of Houzz recipient for many years. We pride ourselves in doing a good job for you at a fair price. As a landscape design/build contractor for over 30 years, we have employees with unprecedented longevity in a trade known for employee turnover. Many of our employees, including landscape labor crew have been with us for over five years (and some for a decade or more), an unusual statistic in the landscape industry. Our on staff landscape architect is state licensed and a member of the ASLA (American Society of Landscape Architects). We are also a 5-star King County Envirostar Company and members of a number of professional nursery, landscape design and building associations, such as WALP, ASLA, APLD and the MBA. (See our reference and “questions to ask your landscape designer” website sections). You can also read positive reviews of our work on the web from services such as Bing, Google places, Angie's List, Yelp, Judy's Book and other online review sites.

 Experience. Turns out it's important.

 We'll offer creative and flexible, budget-based solutions specifically tailored to fit your site. We base our horticultural recommendations on our vast experience working on properties from Everett to Maple Valley as well as research completed by the Washington State Cooperative Extension Service. Our nursery staff is a team of gardeners who have a passion for plants. Stocking the tried & true garden favorites and unique varieties for the region, our Garden Center is your local gardening resource center.

 Our Design. Your choice.

 As part of our unique, flexible approach to landscaping, we offer optional "do-it-yourself" pricing as well as "direct-to-owner" subcontract bids. Our designers also utilize laptop computer estimating that enables you to get instant answers to your pricing and "what if" questions. Our designers carry a wide variety of product catalogs and landscape information for you to review as well. Our Garden Center allows you the ability to "see the plants before you start". Our installations include a range of design innovations, from mixed seasonal perennial plantings to unique "dry stream" arrangements that serve as an aesthetic alternative to common gravel landscape drains. Our award-winning ponds and waterfalls utilize a unique skimmer and biofalls system that functions as a self-regulating water ecosystem. In addition to our guaranteed work, you will receive a year-long discount at our Garden Center and you can sign up to receive our monthly garden tips via email to keep you and your yard on the right track.

 Let's make this long-term.

 We want to establish an ongoing relationship with you. We'll be happy to mail you announcements regarding plant sales, seminars and nursery events that we offer and our staff will always try to be courteous and helpful. Our installation clients also receive valuable discounts from the Garden Center after project completion. Finally, you will not find a better installation warranty than you'll get from us. As long as you take reasonably good care of your landscape, we guarantee newly installed plants for a year. If we are taking continuing care of your home site, we warranty the planting as long as our staff is maintaining your property.
