Horticulture Professionals

Growing with Purpose Design & Maintenance
Our garden maintenance services focus on the long term health and longevity of every plant on the property . We take a proactive, seasonal approach that supports gardens as they mature and change over time. Through careful observation, detailed planning, and consistent care, we help landscapes remain balanced, resilient, and well tended throughout the year.
Our garden design work is rooted in horticultural knowledge and a deep understanding of how plants grow within the landscape. We create site specific planting plans that consider soil, light, seasonality, and how each space is used. Because we maintain the gardens we design, our work is informed by long term success rather than short term impact.
Grown With Care Planters
We design and maintain seasonal container plantings that bring color and structure to key areas throughout the year. Each display is thoughtfully composed for durability , visual balance, and changing conditions. Our team maintains containers as the season progresses, ensuring they continue to look intentional and well cared for.
Locally Nurtured Growth Custom Growing
Many of the plants we install are grown by us, and we also offer custom growing for landscape professionals seeking high quality, regionally adapted plant material. By controlling the growing process, we’re able to select varieties suited to coastal Maine conditions and ensure strong, healthy plants from the start.

We have worked with Solid Roots Gardening for years and are very pleased with their work. While they certainly have the staff, equipment and knowledge to manage large, complex estate gardens on MDI, they give equal attention to those of us who just need some seasonal help opening and closing our gardens. It is always a huge relief to see Lacey and her crew arrive after the snow has melted and some of the spring ephemerals are just waking up! The pricing is fair, employees work hard and are knowledgeable. One of the aspects of Solid Roots that distinguishes them from other companies is their flexibility - they are equipped to do as much, or as little as property owners need or want. They are sensitive to client preferences and have great connections for soil amendments and plants. Every client is treated well regardless of the scope of their project. Solid Roots seems like an apt name - the company is grounded in the values that make Maine such a great place to live!
