The essence of a good design amounts to a combination of elements. It entails knowledge of horticultural choices, the ability to translate known patterns into planned movement, and the openness to listen to the voice of the landscape and how it speaks to us. The Landscape Architects and Designers of Green View Companies believe in these tenets and seek to produce an indoor/outdoor colloquy that results in clarity, economy and elegance. Our design ethic utilizes the principles of fine art to work with the environment to create a dynamic garden: a garden as art, that appeals to all the senses with a true sense of place that touches one's soul.
The world is our garden, and it is our responsibility to cherish this world by preserving and enhancing its natural beauty, because we are the future. The foundation of our design is the utilization of all art forms to create a living picture, preserving and working with the elements of the environment that exist, while creating a space and a sense of place for all people. The world is our garden and it is our responsibility to cherish this world by preserving and enhancing its beauty, thus making a difference for today and the future of our children. While working with the land, it is our purpose to coalesce a vocabulary of the arts with natural systems to establish a relationship between people and nature.

A Gallup Poll of new home buyers and buyers of previously owned homes showed that landscaping can add nearly 15% to the value of a home. Money Magazine reports that landscaping has a recovery value of 100-200%. Such increases should not be surprising, since professionally designed and installed landscaping makes any home more attractive and more livable. With proper care and maintenance, your landscaping will be the highlight of your home and the pride of the neighborhood. A landscape investment today is a growing investment for the future.

Over 730 acres of land are currently dedicated to plant and sod production at Green View Nursery. Adjoining our corporate headquarters and Garden Center in Dunlap, Illinois, our nursery produces large volumes of sod, as well as shade, ornamental, and evergreen trees. In addition to growing more quality sod, Green View's second nursery, located in Woodford County, serves as a complete container growing operation. It is here that we propagate and produce many of the quality shrubs and perennials that supply our five landscape centers. Expert horticulturists and extensive irrigation and fertilization practices allow Green View to produce what we feel is some of Illinois' finest nursery stock. Green View sod is grown on rich, prairie soil with a balanced level of fertility, insuring a strong root system and lush foliage. Sod is cut fresh daily and comes direct from the nursery to you. Research has shown that a blend of bluegrass is superior to any single variety alone. Thus, Green View sod is a blend of improved bluegrass strains, developed especially for the Midwest. We are constantly researching and experimenting with new strains of bluegrass to develop the finest sod found anywhere in the Midwest.
