Creating Beautiful Custom Outdoor Spaces in Kansas City

Hi! I’m Laurie and this is my company. I was inspired to start Philly Lily when l was in Philadelphia, attending Moore College of Art and Design. I completed a fine arts degree in 3-D metal working and wanted to apply those concepts to outdoor spaces. When custom-designing a space, I see the landscape as a big, outdoor, living sculpture. My approach and my unique skill sets are what makes my work stand out.

When I moved back to my hometown of Kansas City, Philly Lily came with me. So far, I’ve enjoyed working in landscaping and design for over 15 years. It’s incredibly rewarding to guide each client on their journey to create their own perfectly fitted custom-designed outdoor space. The services that we offer are tailored to be uniquely meaningful for each client, with smart design and skilled execution for beautiful results. 

We are a company that values our employees’ hard work, our customers’ needs and goals, and the impact that we can have on our community. We strive to create a healthy work environment, maintain clear and open communication with our clients, support local businesses for our stock and merchandise, and dedicate time to volunteer work in our community. When you hire us, you are also giving back to the city that we all call home. 

Philly Lily, llc. is my pride and passion and it thrills me to be in the business of filling Kansas City with beautiful, unique landscape design. I love this work because I get to keep learning! The only thing I share an equal passion for is my beautiful family — my amazing husband Scottie, our daughter Annie, and our dog Nori.
