Your property is more than just land; it is a canvas for the Lowcountry lifestyle. At Southern Legacy Landscape Group, we specialize in transforming residential estates and commercial properties into breathtaking outdoor retreats that blend natural beauty with enduring craftsmanship. Founded by industry veterans Tyler Collins and Luke Strehl, our firm brings over 25 years of combined horticultural expertise to the barrier islands and the greater Charleston area. From the maritime forests of Kiawah Island to the riverfront estates of Johns Island and Wadmalaw, we design landscapes that are as sustainable as they are stunning.

Custom Landscape Design & Build

We bridge the gap between architectural vision and on-site reality. Whether it’s a new construction project on Seabrook Island or a historic renovation in Downtown Charleston, our design-build process ensures every detail — from sustainable plant selection to soil supplementing — is executed perfectly.

Luxury Hardscapes

In Charleston, life happens outdoors. We design and install durable, elegant hardscapes that serve as the foundation for your family’s memories.

Estate & Commercial Maintenance

We provide more than just mowing. Our white-glove maintenance programs are comprehensive horticultural care plans designed to protect the investment of luxury homeowners, HOAs, and resort properties.

Water & Light Solutions

The Lowcountry climate presents unique challenges. We are experts in advanced irrigation, drainage, and lighting solutions that enhance security and aesthetics.

Trusted Charleston Landscapers for Residential, HOA, and Commercial Properties

Managing a commercial property or community association in Charleston County requires more than a landscaping crew; it requires a partner who understands budget cycles, board communication, and long-term asset management. Southern Legacy serves as the preferred landscape partner for premier Homeowners and Property Owners Associations and luxury resorts across the Coastal Charleston area. We ensure your community’s entrance makes a flawless first impression, your common areas are safe and manicured, and your irrigation systems run efficiently to lower operating costs.
