“A Private Sanctuary for Biodiversity and Pollinators”
The Butterfly Garden in Poway, California, is designed as a living ecosystem — a garden that blossoms year after year and evolves into a sanctuary for wildlife. This project was nominated among the best landscape designs for nature restoration in San Diego.
By weaving together native plants, nectar-rich flowers, and ecological design strategies, the garden supports butterflies, bees, and pollinators while providing a serene outdoor retreat for the homeowners.

Design Approach: Living in Unity with Nature
Our vision was to create more than a decorative garden — it is a synergetic system where plants, pollinators, and people coexist. Carefully selected planting palettes ensure year-round color, fragrance, and habitat. The dry creek feature provides both an aesthetic focal point and a functional stormwater solution, creating a microclimate that cools the backyard naturally.

Key Features of the Butterfly Garden
Native & Pollinator-Friendly Plants – Supporting biodiversity and year-round blooms.
Butterfly Habitat – Milkweed, salvias, and other host plants attract butterflies to breed and thrive.
Seasonal Flower Strips – Stripes of greenery and color create a sense of infinity and expand the space visually.
Sustainable Water Features – A dry water creek transforms into a pond during storms, enriching the ecosystem.
Ecological Balance – A garden that matures gracefully, becoming lusher and richer with each season.
A Garden that Evolves with Time
As with all LASD Studio designs, this garden is conceived as an evolving landscape. The first year focuses on establishing ecological balance, while by the second and third year, the planting becomes denser, the wildlife more abundant, and the garden reaches its full vibrancy.
This project reflects our mission: to restore balance between people, art, and biodiversity and to leave a legacy of sustainable, beautiful outdoor spaces for future generations.
