Planting & gardens
Discuss wind, shelter and sun before selecting plants.

Thoughtful planting, sheltered patios and clear garden paths for Duxbury homes, from exposed coastal settings to quieter yards inland.

Duxbury Beach is a managed coastal landscape exposed to Atlantic conditions. It reflects the town’s coastal character, while residential lots farther inland can have different wind and salt exposure. A beach-inspired look alone is not enough to choose a practical planting plan.
Discuss which parts of the yard feel exposed, where existing plants struggle and where you prefer to sit. For properties affected by coastal conditions, plant selection, shelter and gathering spaces deserve attention together. For inland lots, sun, shade and established trees may take priority.

A patio can feel more comfortable when seating is arranged around available shelter rather than only around a view. Walkways should connect the entrance, deck and lawn without cutting awkwardly through planted areas. Keep the palette focused, with planting and paving that complement the house and leave manageable maintenance access.
If your project is close to the shore, dunes or other sensitive areas, discuss that before finalizing the scope. Applicable reviews must be checked for the specific work; a proposal should not assume shoreline work is automatically permitted.

Place seating where the layout supports comfort and access.
Bring the entrance, garden and outdoor seating together.
Tell the team about known shoreline, dune or wetland constraints. Applicable local and state requirements must be checked for the actual location and scope before work begins.
