The Story of Dreamscapes Landscaping & Design

Inspiring Outdoor Living
.Since 1987.
DreamScapes began when owner Alex Shuda started his local landscaping company at age 12 in Roseville, MN.

Today, DreamScapes has evolved into a full-service Minneapolis landscaping company with award-winning designers, 35+ year-round professionals, and modern equipment. Our experience & commitment to quality enables us to give our clients a five-year warranty on hardscape construction and a one-year plant warranty. The Best Warranty in the Business!
