“We worked with Alan (Village Landscape Architecture) to help us with a large corner lot front yard after removing all of our lawn. We wanted drought tolerant plantings that would be a benefit to wildlife, but didn't know where to start. We asked Alan to deliver a plan, in the form of drawings, that we could implement ourselves. Alan was easy to communicate with and listened carefully to our parameters. Beyond recommending the placement and varieties of plants, Alan drew a plan that also incorporated an inviting addition to our walkway entrance. We loved his creative additions of hardscape which tied back to our love of Mother Nature's natural landscape. We still love the design today - 4 years later. Alan was easy to work with, a good listener, and provided the deliverable on time. I highly recommend him.”

“Alida worked closely with us to re-design the landscape surrounding a house that we inherited from my in-laws which we plan to rent. This part of the preparations to do that was very important to us, since my late in-laws were such dedicated gardeners. We wanted to make the outdoor areas sustainable for tenants, but retain the original feel. What resulted were lovely, gracious spaces for relaxing and entertaining which has attracted many unsolicited and enthusiastic compliments.”

“We had an old koi pond that started to leak badly. We contacted Brandon Delon at Left Side Landscape about re-doing our pond to make it larger and correct our leak problem. What a wonderful experience! Brandon is incredibly creative and practical at the same time. He designed a beautiful, stepped waterfall that leads into a greatly enlarged pond to accommodate our large koi that had outgrown our previous pond. His crew, Rico and David, were on time, hard working and very respectful of our property. We couldn't be happier with the final result.”

“We love our yard done by Zenful Gardens! We would recommend hiring them for your landscaping projects And their designs. Ryan is creative and easy to work with and so Are his employees.”

“We were extremely pleased with the job Brian did for us. We basically had our old and problematic backyard swimming pool demoed and we were faced with what to do with this large space. Brian presented us with a design and planting plan and named specific plants that we agreed mutually on to be planted. Also included was a plan for a pergola which ties in well. Under the pergola and on a concrete pad, he designed a bar. All of the swimming pool coping stones were used as landscape steps and old redwood planks from our old deck were re purposed for a landing outside our master bedroom which leads into the back garden. Our existing front yard was filled with juniper, which the fire department wanted out because of the flammability aspect. We wanted perennials and plants that deer didn't like. We wanted a drip system and landscape lighting in both spaces. It was also time to have our two story staircase and decks replaced. He designed all of that and used a hardwood for the material. Lights were recessed into the side walls and benches were built into the main deck, which is perfect for entertaining. The job went well and his pricing was fair based on the scoop of the job. I would recommend him highly.”

“Regina designed and executed a landscape rennovation of my mid century modern home, including the addition of a large vegetable garden, a back patio area, the entry and front yard. She was professional and fun to work with, and came with various crews and subs who did a great job. She had terrific ideas. My yard is fabulous!”

“April and her team have been nothing short of amazing. She took our vision and turned our property into calming outdoor "rooms" and spaces. Her designs and choices of plants have been perfect for our desire to use drought-tolerant, California native, fire resistant pollinators. Her team transformed our spaces quickly and educated us throughout the process. She gave consistent on-site follow-up, made adjustments to enhance her designs into a reality that we love and use. She helped us to rejuvenate a dated, fire-damaged property into one with great curb appeal and multiple entertaining areas. Throughout, she gave us options and adapted her plans as needed.”

“We asked Giovanni, who is the founder of Terranuda, to redesign the entire side yard of our property. We had replaced the full length of a fence, and in the process, had removed most of an old hedge and other assorted plants. We wanted to completely re-do the design and feel of this part of our property. Giovanni's design is innovative, well-suited to the slope of the yard, and nicely accents our multiple deck structures. He was quite collaborative and listened to our ideas. He also acted as the project manager for installation. He ensured high quality implementation and met our deadline and budget. His training in design and architecture with experience in multiple climates are evident. We highly recommend his work!”

“I worked with Michael Cook at Firma Design Group on a very large residential project in California. The project involved over twenty custom gas lanterns and required specific detail and design work over several months. The results were outstanding and the installation was flawless.
