Lambert Landscape Company was founded in 1919 in Shreveport by Joe Lambert Sr. and his sons. From the beginning, the company built its reputation on craftsmanship, horticultural expertise, and a deep understanding of landscape design.

Lambert's successfully introduced azaleas to Dallas, something that had not been done before. Their work sparked widespread interest and helped define the look and identity of neighborhoods like Turtle Creek.

In the late 1930s, the next generation brought Lambert's to Dallas, opening its first locations on Cedar Springs. What they found was a challenging environment, but also a major opportunity to shape the future of the city’s landscapes.

Lambert's converted a former service station on Cedar Springs into a retail garden center. It quickly became a destination where design, plants, and experience came together, elevating expectations for residential landscapes across Dallas.

Just before the second World War, Lambert Green paint is created by Joe Lambert and quickly becomes a Dallas exterior paint color staple and even a Neiman-Marcus fashion statement.

As demand grew, Lambert's expanded to a large property along Northwest Highway, transforming the Rendezvous Stables into a nationally recognized garden center. Visitors traveled from across the country to experience it.

In 1966, Lambert's opened its new facility near LBJ and Hillcrest. Once again, the company repurposed an equestrian property into a distinctive office and garden center that reflected its design philosophy.

Henry Lambert received a national landscape award presented by Lady Bird Johnson. This recognition reinforced Lambert Landscape Company  growing influence in the industry.

In 1980, Stan Wetsel became owner of Lambert. His leadership marked a shift into a new era and set the direction for the company’s evolution in the decades ahead.

During the 1980s, Lambert's began developing a large-scale organic approach to landscaping. This shift focused on soil health and sustainability, positioning the company ahead of industry trends.
In 1989, Lambert's fully committed to organic practices. Soon after, the company exited the retail garden center business and shifted its focus to production and service operations.

Lambert's moved its operations to 6353 Denton Drive, converting a former Morton potato chip factory into its headquarters. This marked a permanent shift toward a more scalable and operationally focused business model.

Ownership transitioned over time to Walter Dahlberg, followed by Paul Fields and Dan Morgan. This ensured continuity while bringing new energy and direction to the company.

The leadership era of Dan Morgan and Paul Fields has been defined by a steadfast commitment to preserving Lambert’s century-old standard of design excellence while actively modernizing operations to prepare the company for its next generation of growth.

After purchasing and renovating a new space, Lambert's relocated from its previous Denton Drive location to its current headquarters in 2016, establishing a modernized home base for the company’s continued growth.

Today, Lambert's continues to build on its legacy. The company has modernized operations, expanded its capabilities, and remained focused on delivering high-quality landscapes while staying true to its roots.
