As someone who genuinely likes to support small, family-owned businesses, I reached out to inquire about some yard work. I was given a quote in person that was significantly lower than the quote I later received by email. When I asked about the price difference, I was unable to get a clear explanation. Ultimately, I had the exact same work completed by another gardening service for about a quarter of the price I was quoted here. I completely understand that businesses need to make a profit, and I'm more than willing to pay a fair price for quality work. However, the pricing discrepancy and lack of transparency left me feeling that the price was simply excessive. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this company based on my experience.

Everything here absolutely lovely, a treat. It's a little hamlet of roses next to the Japanese Garden and inside the Central Park, which is turning out to have an embarrassment of riches. No dearth of seating, I sat on several of the benches and marveled at the sight: red and white, pink and yellow roses everywhere with beautiful bees hovering around them, plus lilac flowers on the perimeter, of which I don't know the name. I used to live in a house with a backyard full of bees and we have a mutual understanding: I don't 'bother' them and encroach and they don't sting me :-) It felt incredible to gaze out at this bevy, and a huge heartfelt filled with gratitude shout-out to all the volunteers who lend their knowledge and energy and green thumb, time and efforts in maintaining this wonder! :-)

We're so glad to have found Juliana via a referral from our insurance agent! After meeting with a…read morecouple of other designers who either wanted to completely redo our front/rear yards or were super expensive (one company had a minimum job fee of $15,000!!) our plans to fine tune the back yard & redo the front yard had been put on hold. After a young driver in a big pick up truck plowed through our front yard on a rainy day, the search was on again to redo the front yard in a way that would also provide some sort of safety barrier. Juliana came to the rescue with incredibly artistic & creative designs for the front & rear yards. For the front yard, with the use of metal gabion boxes filled with large rocks, they will provide a structural safety barrier while also looking artistic (pictures to follow once they're installed). She also has vast knowledge of unique plants which will complement our Spanish style home. For the rear yard she came up with great solutions for helping us incorporate more seating & more privacy by changing a few layout features as well as supplementing existing bamboo & plants. Our other design challenge with the back yard which Juliana creatively solved: We have dogs who are tormented by squirrels running up & down our redwood tree. In an effort to keep our dogs from climbing & chewing the tree we've had a makeshift wooden barrier at the base of the tree which is none too attractive. Juliana is going to build a wood surround to protect the tree but which also adds an interesting design element to the yard. I wish we'd had the foresight to hire a designer from the get go rather then doing bits & pieces on our own only to redo our work since it didn't quite deliver. It is money well spent to hire a designer. Either way, thanks to Juliana we're super excited to get our yards projects implemented!

Juliana's vision is that your backyard should be an extension of your home, another room. Working with Juliana was wonderful. She listened to our ideas and came up with an initial plan that we tweaked a couple times until we had a final design . It is now a space we are drawn to and use often. It truly is an extension of our home. Juliana and Mauricio (who she works with on the hardscape) did a wonderful job in transforming our yard. Communication with her was excellent. She stayed on budget and the only work order changes were a result of our wanting something different from the original plans. She has a great knowledge of plants and design. I would highly recommend her.

I went to their shop on a Monday and Ordered a funeral arrangement /spray for a Friday service at…read morethe church for a total of $360. I chose the Paradise spray as the young man who had passed away really liked Hawaii. I asked the young lady that took the order whether it's large or if I pay more would it be larger and she said all the sprays are the same size and if you pay more, they would just add more flowers but the size would be the same. So, I asked her to charge me more for more flowers $300 and go from there. Told her it's for a young man who has passed away and I want it to be special. After calling someone to make sure they can do this arrangement due to the fact that they were very busy with weddings that weekend, She assured me that it would be done and made special. She even said that they have all the flowers in-season to be able to make this spray. At he church service on Friday I was so EMBARRASSED by the arrangement. It was small and not balanced (maybe it was missing the leaves around it... not sure) but it looked terrible or maybe the florist just didn't take the time to arrange in properly. I think they should not take additional business when they cannot handle it. I know the cost of a funeral spray does not compare to the revenue they get for a wedding but this was important to me and I wanted something special for my loved one. Unfortunately I did not get a chance to take a picture because I did not want anyone associating those flowers with me. After calling the store, a couple of people (Regina and then Mark) called me back and just apologized; At first offering to refund me 50% but then rescinding that offer. Their messages mentioned that I was charged appropriately for the arrangement and they would contact me but I never heard back after leaving my review. There should be better training of their staff when a customer orders so they do not give the wrong information about the size of an arrangement and also, not take on additional business when they cannot handle it. Think twice about ordering a one-off arrangement from here; their focus is only on big-ticket revenue from weddings.

Items are priced a bit higher than Amazon or Walmart, but if you are in a bind or short on time it might be a necessary evil. Service here is severely lacking - I was trying to make a return and the man at the front was straight rude about it. They dont accept returns outside of the three franchises stores owned by that specific owner. That is ok, but this wasn't explained well and when I asked further, they rolled their eyes and said "like I already said, I can't help you - this isn't Fremont ".. uhm. ok. Still 3 stars cuz it would probably be clutch when you need something last minute, but dont expect any kindness here.
