Residential design build landscaping has been the core of our business for over 35 years in the Des Moines area. We have six landscape designers with a ton of experience and creativity that can help you tackle any landscape project around your home. We work on a lot of large landscape projects, such as backyard pool installations, covered patios, and outdoor kitchen areas.

We can install stone work and quality plantings that will have your business looking amazing from the 1st day it opens. We are happy to help with new construction installations or makeover your existing landscaping that was originally installed years ago. Learn more about our services.
After a quality landscape installation, maintenance is the most important aspect of having a beautiful landscape that will thrive for years to come. We offer spring, summer, and fall maintenance packages that will have your landscaping planting beds looking gorgeous all year long. Some of the typical tasks we complete during maintenance stops are: leaf removal, weeding, pruning, dead-heading flowers, fertilizing, insect control, mulching, edging, and watering. Contact our office and we can get you a free quote for any maintenance services you need.
Having a beautiful lawn compliments a beautiful landscape. We are passionate about keeping your lawn clean and green for the entire season. We offer mowing and lawn applications that keep your yard looking great, without all the work. We can mow your lawn weekly or more if desired. Our fertilization and weeding program is typically a 5-step process throughout the year once your lawn is established. Get in touch with our maintenance team to get your lawn on the right track.
Our retail garden center is second to none in Iowa. Our variety and quality of materials is only matched by the friendliness of our garden center staff. You will love the selection of annual flowers, perennial flowers, shrubs, flowering trees, shade trees, pottery, fountains, garden art, and indoor garden décor. We also host a variety of events throughout the year at Ted Lare Garden Center. We offer several art shows in the spring and fall, as well as monthly farmer markets on the first Saturday of each month from May to October.
Weekend classes at the garden center have been a big hit with a lot of our customers. Most classes weave creativity with learning, often allowing you to leave with a beautiful piece of garden art. Some of the recent class topics have included: driftwood succulent air plants, terrariums, garden art poles, fall centerpiece, and so much more. Check out our class list for more details.
Come visit us and see for yourself. After you visit our store, you will have a hard time thinking of it as a Garden Center. The name simply does not do it justice. The outdoor displays and wide range of weekend activities make this place so much more.
