'Magical' might be the best way to describe landscape designer Jay Sifford...

Fine Gardening, February 2023 Issue

A transformative garden is so much more than a decorated yard.

It is a cohesive space that blends seamlessly with the architecture of the home. It tells the unique story of the land and of those who live there. It contains a spark of magic that beckons people to connect to it, explore and experience it. Such a space is authentic in its artistry by being so much more than the sum of its parts. It is a serene, nurturing place for life to happen. Building these gardens is our craft and our passion.

PPA Award Recipient Graphic


I'm honored to be the recipient of a 2024 Perennial Plant Association Landscape Design Award of Merit for my NC mountain garden, Rhodwood.

Jay is an artist and a pleasure to work with. He and his team completed a huge landscaping project for me: full front and back yard. I'm completely in love with it! Jay got my vision from the start (and added so much along the way). The work was done quickly, with Jay on site and in contact every step. It came in under budget too! You cannot go wrong hiring Sifford Design. (My photos don't do it justice)
