A fantastic notion // a creation
in one’s mind.
Caroline Maurer CFO (Chief Floral Officer)
I have always been a flower child—just ask my mom who always regretted bringing me to the nursery when I (predictably) doubled her budget. Times have not changed...
Today, I’m raising my two little ones with the magic of playing in the garden, tasting the first ripe raspberry of the season, and noticing the creatures that flock to our flowers. If I’m honest, I started gardening to create a utopia for my honeybees, too.
With Figment, I aim to build more foraging habitat for pollinators, birds, and the backyard ecosystems that rely on it, all while beautifying homes and connecting people to the natural world.
The planet needs more gardens—and gardeners. If that leads to more heartbreakingly beautiful yards along the way, well, who's to complain?


Gardens are for everyone.
I firmly believe that everyone can and should have a garden. That can cost $0 to $100,000+ depending on the route you take! Whether we work together on a custom design and implementation, or you download one of my digital plans and DIY, I'm here to give you the resources you need to grow something. A lot of somethings. If you love the DIY route, follow me on Instagram for education and tips!

Who's to say you can't be pesticide free AND get the occasional Botox in your glabella? Or you that can't eat organic one week and entirely from plastic take-out containers the next? My vibe ping pongs between idealistic and realistic—trad wife hobbies without any of the nonsense that goes along with it.


I am NOT a "Maryland Special" Landscaper
Yes, I coined this term. And no, you will not be getting an assortment of haphazardly placed nonflowering shrubs from me...complete with a tree planted RIGHT on your foundation. (I cringe).
I specialize in English cottage gardening at its finest! If you love flower maximalism, overflowing borders, walls covered in roses, or even the more contemporary and tidy symmetry of parterres and elegant mass plantings, I'm the designer for you.
We aim to please. And we do.
“Caroline’s gardens are absolutely breathtaking! The moment I saw her backyard, I knew I needed her magic in my own yard. Planning my own garden has always been so overwhelming—what plants can be next to each other? How far do I space them? What layout should I use?! Caroline takes all that stress away. Not only is her garden functional (number one!), but it is also magazine worthy. She has brought nothing less to my very own yard.”
“Caroline has been instrumental in bringing my vision of “cottage garden” to life at our new home! We wanted a fresh perspective that was somewhere between formal/traditional landscaping, and Caroline struck just the right balance with a thoughtful, elegant, but still playful whole-house design. Her creativity and eye for creating spaces with purposeful visual tension that looks totally unintentional is remarkable and sets her apart from run-of-the-mill “designers.” On top of that, her professionalism, flexibility, and commitment to her clients makes every interaction delightful! I am incredibly grateful to have found her and would recommend her wholeheartedly!!”
“Caroline has an uncanny ability to create magic out of nothing. Her ability to turn something boring into something magical is truly wonderful. Crafting a garden has always felt like an overwhelming task, but Caroline has a way of simplifying it, making it seem attainable. Even fun.”
