This was (is) my dream plant. When I first got it, Will helped me understand the leaves curling, and what natural maturation looked like.
Mich S.

I have no idea how Will makes a living by being so generous. I was getting lost on the internet trying to diagnose my plants, and saw he was very well-respected on the forums. I went on a limb, emailed him, and was shocked when he answered. He's blown me away with how willing he is to help people no matter how clueless they are (me), and is incredibly knowledgeable. He's a great communicator, kind, thinks beyond the immediate issue, and celebrates wins. I'm still learning, but having only owned fake plants before, I now have people oohing and aahing over my real ones when they come over. Seems silly, but having guidance about something you really care about means a lot, especially during COVID. I still can't believe he's helped me so much. I recommend him to everyone I know!

My Aralia Fabian (Polyscias scutellaria) tree began dropping leaves that were turning yellow all of a sudden. After speaking with Will, who is very knowledgeable, friendly and responsive, I took upon his sound advice. I apparently added fresh new soil on top of the existing soil, which ended up hurting the tree. The roots were not getting the oxygen they needed. He also gave me tips for watering and taking care of my other plants, after asking a few other general plant questions. Two weeks later, my tree is looking healthy as ever. I will refer everyone I know to Will Creed. Just an overall excellent experience!

Coming along!

Excellent Just excellent Service!!!! I have been helped over the phone more than once and I have always received valuable information to not only keep my plants alive but help them thrive!!! Highly recommend!

Magnificent service from Will. I found him through a question he answered online to a concerned plant owner about a Cat Palm problem. He was so detailed and thorough with the response and thankfully he had left contact information so I went ahead and texted him. I was amazed by how quickly he responded to my text with photos, then we had phone call where he explained in a more detailed way what I can do so that my Palm stays healthy. Everything he said as a plant owner made all the sense in the world, indoor plant care is different from any plant care. I truly care for my plants, they're not just for deco, and having the support of Will, really made all the difference in the world. I cannot wait to see how my plants respond. Thank you, Will!

See all

I cannot recommend him highly enough. Absolute professional, and unbelievably accommodating to my (tight) schedule. He selected high quality plants from the nursery (sharing pics so I could approve also what I like), weeding, mulching, and leaving everything immaculate. I do quite a bit of gardening but relied upon his expertise for the design and what plants would thrive, and he did not disappoint. His prices are also very very reasonable. As I told him, I found him by googling "Brooklyn gardener" so it was a total leap of faith (!). So I am glad to pass my recc on to others who need an experienced and knowledgeable gardener.

I hired James to do a clearance of a great deal of overgrowth and some planting in my backyard…read more He was extreme professional, detailed and kind from beginning to end. He came by the first time to take a look and provide me with a quote (which he email me in less than 24h). I then decided to hire him and let me tell you... this was one of the best decisions I ever made for my house! He took care of an incredible amount of overgrown plants and then repotted and relocated some other ones. I was amazed by how perfect everything looked at the end! You can tell he really loves his job and knows what he is doing. He is also genuinely a good person and charges reasonably. We were so impressed that we decided to hire him for a monthly maintenance for our garden which is something we never felt comfortable doing before with anyone else. James is truly the best!

This year the SLFs won! My yard was covered in honey dew. Deck plants etc and it seemed to be killing my neighbors trees with the heavy dew on the leaves. Arborpolitan used an insecticide and a few days later they started to all fall off the tree. I pick them up and toss them daily to keep the bees or any other insects from investing any possible insecticide. Arborpolitan also gave us an estimate to trim the tree this winter. They were a little more expensive than other quotes I got but they are a smaller company in Brooklyn so I decided to give them the project.

That was my original goal and what I wanted in the original scope of work! It's definitely listed on there but if you come to my house now, you can see that the branches are still too close to the building. What a joke that I ended up paying over $2000 to then find out that they could not cut anything beyond a 2" branch when he originally said 4". My neighbors were laughing at the ridiculousness of it all. They trimmed for 5 hours and left a mess behind in front of my home. Learn from my mistake and book elsewhere. I gave 5 stars because it's a small business at the end of the day and I hope they can pivot and serve the tree and homeowner better.

Sometimes it's not fun to be right. I sent a request to…read moreseveral gardeners on Yelp. I outlined 3 things needed done. Just Clean Lots replied with a Robo response or Cut & Paste. Very generic "happy to help you with your garden related tasks". And "we must make an appointment". I didn't respond because I KNOW that the people who must appointments are always the WORST. They delay things forever. They tie up your whole day for nothing. And they charge way more! I like the companies that are a guy who has some other guys that work with him and they get the job done. After a few days, they reached out again. I replied and said that the robo reply wasn't good and that I'm not making an appt without knowing if they even do the tasks I needed done. I was assured that they could help with all 3. On Monday, they asked if they could come Tuesday of the following week. I said there was no way I could wait that long. Especially since there was so little change that there prices wouldn't be unreasonable. I need to know sooner rather than later if I need to move onto the next. I was talking with someone that I believe said she was the Operations Manager. Sigh... again, managers, having to inspect everything (rather than working from my description and the numerous pictures I supplied) and I told her it needed to be in a day or 2. She got back to me and proposed Thursday. That wasn't the day or 2 I wanted. But it was easier to accept than keep going back and forth. This was all on Yelp. So, I can't say if it was all one person or different people. I did get a message later saying that Wednesday would be possible. I said ok and said that anytime between 10AM and 3PM would be ok. Not that I like 5-hour windows. But again, to minimize the back and forth that would be necessary to fine tune a time. So, stayed available all day today. Made sure to be done with showering, etc before 10 so's to not be occupied if they came. 10AM came. 3PM came. Now, 5PM has come and gone and not only no show, but no contact. No request to reschedule. No apology for standing me up. Nothing. Part 2 - replying to Justin's comment You misunderstood. I don't mean that the estimate gets higher by being a week later. I mean that companies that make a trip over to spend time estimating charge more than companies that don't. They have to make up for the cost of the time of the person who is estimating rather than that person being on a job (whether it's gardening, painting, cleaning or any other work). What is referred to in your reply to my review as "building a relationship with the customer" is the exact opposite of what I want. I want the work done and not to be bothered. I shouldn't even have to be home. My gardener comes once a week and we see each other in person once a year (or less)! The best way to "build a relationship" with me is to accommodate my preferences as a customer. Not to force me to do things your way.

Justin did a great job. Came on time. Did exactly what was asked. Very expert. Did a wonderful job…read morecleaning up afterwards. Really reasonable price. Nice person and hard worker.
