Del Oro designs and builds native California landscapes — planned for your site, planted for this climate, and alive in every season.
Every project begins with a plan drawn for your site — planting, hardscape, irrigation, lighting.
C-27 licensed landscape contractor. Bonded and insured.
Plants chosen for this climate — not in spite of it.
Installed by our own crews, then established through the first year — not abandoned at the walkthrough.
Three ways we work — every one of them starts with a design, not a truckload of plants.
A complete plan set for your property: planting, hardscape, irrigation, and lighting — with a plant palette that thrives in your soil and sun, and an itemized estimate you can hold.
Learn more about design →Turf out, habitat in. We handle removal, soil preparation, and planting — and point you to water-district rebates your project may qualify for.
Learn more about conversion →Patios, seating walls, pathways, and shade structures — built around native planting, so the built space and the garden grow together.
Learn more about outdoor living →A native garden's first year decides its next twenty — so our process doesn't end at installation.
Site visit, concept, and a full plan set — planting, hardscape, irrigation, lighting — with an itemized estimate before any work begins.
Our own crews install the plan, with the designer involved from first grade stake to final walkthrough.
First-year care while roots take hold: irrigation tuning, seasonal check-ins, and honest answers about what your garden needs — and what it doesn't.
"We don't force a garden onto a site. We find the one that's already trying to grow there — and draw it."
Adrian Fuentes · Founder & Principal Designer
The name is the state: del oro — "of the gold" — for the hills we design alongside. Look closely at our colors and you'll find every one of them outside: July-gold hillsides, the silvered green of sage and agave, the red of madrone bark. Nothing about Del Oro points anywhere but California.
Tell us about your site and what you want from it. We'll review your request and confirm a consultation time that works for both of us.
