A Word From Our Founder

Elara Vance

I started Meridronvexalto not just to build gardens, but to resurrect stories. Growing up in Missouri, surrounded by rich history and natural beauty, I saw landscapes as living canvases, waiting for their next chapter to be etched into their very soil. My background in art history – specializing in European Renaissance aesthetics – and my deep love for horticulture merged into a single, fervent passion: creating outdoor spaces that feel both timeless and deeply personal.

Here at Meridronvexalto, we believe a garden is a profound expression of legacy, a living sculpture crafted with meticulous precision and an enduring respect for its surroundings. We strive to create environments that not only captivate the eye but also enrich the soul, gardens that will be cherished through generations, mirroring the grand designs of centuries past while embracing the ecological wisdom of today. It is an honor to bring this artistry to Jefferson City and beyond, transforming visions into verdant realities.
