Our Work

 

Rimrock Hotel

Rimrock Hotel , Banff  - Customers since 1999, this site is both a challenging and rewarding project.  High above the Banff townsite on Mountain Avenue, the hotel site features many climate extremes, high summer temperatures, high wind, frost.  As the sun moves over the hotel, the plants begin their day in full sun and end it in full shade.   

 

Creative Solutions

 This unused firepit in the yard of an estate home was an eye sore.  Add some over-sized cannas and voila, it's a giant lawn feature.  Creative solutions are our business. Call us, some days we can even pull a rabbit out of a hat!

 

 
 


Baker Creek Chalets

Baker Creek Chalets, Lake Louise  - This quaint mountain retreat has been dressed with Bretin's creations since 2001.  Known for its cozy cabins, each "room" is dressed with a hand painted window box and a hanging basket in a mixed color scheme.

 
 

Water management

This self watering planter was built to help reduce maintenance demands on the grounds of a large hotel.  A water resevoir is hidden inside the planter.  This planter only requires watering every 2 to 3 weeks.  We have experience turning a wide variety of containers into "self-watering" landscape features.
