Yes. Garden Picasso is a certified Green Infrastructure design studio. We specialize in stormwater management systems—including permeable paving, rain gardens, and bioswales—that capture runoff and reduce flooding in neighborhoods like the 7th Ward and Treme.

We don’t guess; we measure. Our forensic process begins with a Stormwater Audit, using laser grading to map slopes and soil plasticity testing to assess water infiltration. Based on the data, we design tailored solutions like French drains or dry creek beds to protect your foundation.

No. We are a design and stewardship firm, not a lawn crew. We offer a "Stewardship Protocol" strictly for our design clients, focusing on soil health, hand-pruning of native/non-native plants, and organic care. We do not offer "mow and blow" services.

New Orleans has a unique ecology. We use native Louisiana plants because they have deep root systems that stabilize our clay soil (Schriever Clay) and require less artificial irrigation. This is "Regenerative Design"—landscaping that heals the soil rather than depleting it.
