Turn your garden ideas into a plan you can see, refine, and confidently bring to life.
The Verdi Garden Design Workspace gives you a guided place to organize your vision, map your outdoor spaces, and create a cohesive garden plan using 300+ professionally illustrated landscape symbols—all inside Canva.
Instant Digital Access • Editable in Canva • No Design Software Required
You Have Ideas. You Need a Way to Bring Them Together.
Pinterest boards, saved plants, and inspiration photos can help you imagine what is possible—but they do not show how everything will fit into your own space.
The Garden Design Workspace helps you move beyond collecting ideas and begin making thoughtful decisions about how your garden should function, flow, and feel.

A Few Helpful Details
-
No. The Garden Design Workspace can be used with a free Canva account. You will need to create or sign in to a Canva account to open, edit, and save your personal copy of the templates, but a Canva Pro subscription is not required.
-
Yes. The Garden Design Workspace was created specifically to make the design process approachable, even if you have never drawn a landscape plan or used design software before. The guided steps help you organize your ideas, map your space, and build your plan using easy-to-place landscape symbols inside Canva.
-
Yes. You can duplicate the Workspace and use it for multiple garden areas or personal projects. Create separate copies for your front yard, backyard, patio, foundation beds, or any other space you would like to explore. The template is for your personal use and may not be shared, resold, or used to create plans for clients.
-
The symbols can be copied, resized, rotated, layered, and arranged to suit your plan. Because they are finished illustrations, their individual colors and details cannot be edited. With more than 300 symbols available, you can select the plants, materials, and garden features that best represent your ideas.Item description
-
The Workspace includes more than 300 landscape symbols, including trees, shrubs, perennials, grasses, and groundcovers, along with a Plant Tracking Sheet for organizing your selections. It does not provide a prescribed plant list or calculate quantities automatically. You choose the plants and quantities that are appropriate for your garden, growing conditions, and design.
-
No. The Workspace is a hands-on design tool rather than an automatic plan generator. You will map your space and arrange the drag-and-drop landscape symbols yourself, giving you the freedom to explore ideas, make changes, and create a plan that reflects your own garden and priorities.
-
After purchase, you will receive a digital PDF containing a link to the Garden Design Workspace. The Symbol Library, Plant Tracking Sheet, and Dream Garden Presentation Board are linked within the Workspace for easy access. Open the Workspace link in Canva, then follow the instructions to save your own editable copy. No physical product will be shipped.
-
Yes. You can download your completed plan as a PDF or image and share it with a landscaper or contractor to communicate your ideas. The Workspace creates a conceptual garden plan, not construction documents. Measurements, quantities, site conditions, permitting requirements, and installation details should be verified by the appropriate professional before work begins.tem description
