Recent work on seasonal planters earns consistent praise for beauty and creativity, and long-term maintenance clients report thriving plants and attentive service from staff like Greg. However, recent reviews document significant frustration with landscape design projects: rushed removals of healthy plants, poor anchoring plant choices, communication lapses spanning months, missed site visits, and a shift to new restocking fees without warning. The split in recent ratings (64% four/five star, 36% one/two star) reflects two very different customer experiences: those hiring for planters or ongoing maintenance versus those commissioning major redesigns.
