Richard Wike, the owner and sole proprietor of Azlaeas to Zinnias, started the company in 1989. Over 20 years later, he oversees a staff of 12 fulltime experienced employees who are fully versed in installing and maintaining the smallest gardens to the largest estate. We are experienced in all phases of garden design, installation, lighting, hardscapes, maintenance, and container plantings. No project is too small, and the attention to detail and customer wishes are evident in all our work. Succession of color of flowers, foliage and textures is an important feature that we incorporate to make our gardens unique. In addition, we like to form a collaborative relationship with a client that can last years through garden transitions and changes.


Kyle Hodges, partner of Azaleas to Zinnias, has been affiliated with the company for nearly six years. Throughout those years he has developed a wide-based knowledge of everything from plants, plant and hardscape design, natural stonework, pavers and water features, just to name a few, through avenues not limited to hands-on and in-class training. He strives hard to incorporate our clients' wants and needs into designs, as well as educate and guide clients to choices best suited to their individual properties. His enthusiasm for developing long-term client relationships really shows.


We love what we do ...And it shows!
