This place is truly amazing. There are so many awesome things you can buy from seasonal decorations to stationary to handmade artisan work. And their plants are phenomenal. I honestly didn't look at any prices because we weren't there to buy anything, but I will definitely be back another time to make a purchase. There is so much to see here! We also accidentally strolled into one of their outdoor areas that was restricted because we were gaping at all of the amazing plants and didn't notice the signs. The employee working there didn't say anything to us, but just grinned when we realized we weren't supposed to be there. We really appreciated the fact that she was not upset with us, at least not out loud. LOL.

I originally called them for a one-time treatment, but now I'm already looking into ongoing maintenance. Highly recommended!

We met and discussed plans, she drew up a proposal for a fair price, and got the work done quickly even though I'd contacted here during busy season. Throughout the process, she has been great about keeping me up to date, responding to questions quickly, and incorporating a few plants into the design that have sentimental value to me. My yard looks great, and I've had neighbors who had previously never spoken to me stop me on the sidewalk to offer congratulations and to thank me. The true thanks goes to Pat, and her crew. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for quality landscaping with a personal touch.

Okay, if you want professional, personal, creative gardening and landscaping, it doesn't get any…read morebetter than Gardens That Grow! I phoned Mary G and she promptly scheduled time to see my garden space, listen to what I wanted to do and how much I wanted to spend. I was under some pressure to get the work done by a deadline and Mary accommodated me by getting the estimate done in a day! It was structured in components of design, plants and labor so I could easily understand it and see where I was spending my money. My yard gets almost no sun and I can't grow flowers, so it had to be a green garden. I had the typical hostas, astilbes, helibores, and columbines before but Mary knew so many more interesting plants and had some very good ideas about how to design my space so it had variations in color and height and texture. She mixed shrubs and ground cover with exotics and bog plants, giving me a really exciting garden! I never knew that my boring back yard could have transformed like this! The best part was that she and her crew were so terrific! They worked quickly and efficiently and cleaned everything up beautifully before they left. Well, no I lied. The best part was how amazing Mary is! She knows all the Latin names of everything, how best to plant, how to prune and care for your garden, and is just a Sweetheart, too!

I fully expected that I would be writing a glowing review for Gardens that Grow. In mid March of…read morethis year, I contacted them by email, detailing the work that I was interested in (annual plantings, lawn care). Within a day Mary got back to me to set up a time to come by and talk. While she canceled the first appointment and was late to the second (which I thought nothing of at the time), we had a delightful discussion when she came by. We discussed significantly expanding the scope of work -- in phases -- to include setting up irrigation for veggie plants, switching out the soil in the veggie planters, and some great longer range projects that would involve more intricate landscaping. At the end of the visit, she told me she would send a proposal. The problem is she didn't. I would email her from time to time, and she would assure me she was working on it. I called her, I texted her, and each time she would assure me she was on it. I even sent her an email saying that it would be helpful to know if she wasn't interested in the project so that I could move on. I got a response to that email from her business manager, who assured me they would take care of it. Over a month passed....then about 2. I got the proposal and accepted it immediately and asked them to get started. They gave me dates, which came and went. There's no question that some of it was weather-related, but I don't believe that all of it was. Eventually, I lost faith. I had someone else come out and give me an estimate, and based on their word that they would get the work done, I sent a short email to GTG. No real apology, though they said they understood. I do believe that under different circumstances, it would have been possible for them to have done a great job. But the fact is that just didn't happen. The reason I'm writing this review is not to say you shouldn't use them. I hope it goes better for you than it did for me. But I do believe they did a very poor job of not delivering for two months, during which time I really didn't need to be begging a landscaper to come to my house so I could pay them to do what they said they would do.
