Expert Designing The Landscape in Tallahassee, FL

Designing the landscape for your Tallahassee property takes more than picking plants you like. North Florida sits in USDA Zone 8b, which means hot summers, occasional winter cold snaps, and a sandy-clay soil mix that drains fast in some spots and holds water in others. A thoughtful design accounts for all of that before a single plant goes in the ground. At Talquin Landscaping, our team was born and raised right here in Tallahassee. We know how the rolling hills of Leon County affect drainage, how afternoon shade shifts across a Southwood backyard, and what plant choices hold up through a Bannerman-area summer. We work through your property's sun exposure, soil conditions, and drainage patterns to build a design that fits your yard and your life. Whether you want a welcoming front entrance, a defined backyard space, or layered beds that stay low-maintenance season after season, we map it all out before any work begins. Reach out today to start your landscape design conversation.

Seth and his crew just finished a major project for me and my neighbors in Los Robles Green. They did such an excellent job! They worked with our engineering plans to implement a water mitigation system to prevent flooding, then they added retain Ing walls in several tiers and planted them out beautifully, not only giving us peace of mind but also creating such beautiful garden spaces for our enjoyment and increasing our resale value! He and his crew were 100% professional, hard-working and polite. I just loved working with them. They answered all of our questions along the way, made modifications as needed, and did an excellent job. Happy to recommend them to anyone.

Seth and his team went above and beyond to help us with our concrete job. He responded to our concerns in a timely manner and followed up to make sure we were satisfied with the finished product. Seth will definitely be our first call with future projects.

Seth and his crew removed a retaining wall on my property and did a great job. The work was done efficiently and professionally, and I’m very happy with the results. Seth was very communicative during the process and would send pictures asking my preference while the project was in process. I would recommend.

Absolute positive experience! From the consultation, the incredible work, to the completion, it has surpassed my expectations. I did reach out to various landscaping services for comparisons, but I am definitely and extremely satisfied (and grateful!) that I chose Talquin Landscaping for my retention wall!!
