Blue Spruce Horticulture isn’t like other landscaping companies. We approach the design-build process through a horticultural lens, where science meets artistry and sustainability guides every decision. Our focus on waterwise garden designs allows us to strike a balance between beauty and function, creating breathtaking landscapes that support local pollinators, wildlife, the surrounding ecosystem, and those who commission us to build these unique landscapes.
This intentional approach hasn’t just transformed properties across Northern Colorado. It’s earned us recognition from industry leaders, environmental organizations, and the communities we serve.
The Philosophy Behind the Awards
Blue Spruce Horticulture integrates water-wise principles of xeriscaping and diverse, native plant species in every garden design. Our team of experts is composed of educated industry professionals with expertise in landscape design, installation, irrigation, maintenance, sustainability, and hardscape construction.
But expertise alone doesn’t create award-winning landscapes. Our gardens connect people to their surroundings, helping to foster a connection with the Earth and each other through nature, beauty, and creativity. This is our passion, and it shows in our achievements.
