Marty's first true passion in life since being a toddler has been plants. From cacti to strawberry plants to propagating philodendron, he has been working with plants in some capacity his whole life. Recently, this passion has expanded to larger projects which include hardscapes and lighting. Marty's love for outdoor living translates into creating outdoor rooms for others so they too can enjoy and entertain.

As a lifelong Pittsburgh resident, Marty has an intricate knowledge of Western Pennsylvania native plants, and which plants thrive in the region.
