The downspouts in the back of my yard had no run from their termination points, and the one that…read moredid collapsed a few weeks ago. I contacted Nature's Friends to sort out my issues and Cliff was over at my house in no time. He talked through any prior water retention issues I had, and came up with a plan to future proof our house from any flooding that could happen with big storms. The crew were back out within a few days and executed the plan as Cliff specified. The laborers placed one of the pop-ups a little too close to the house, and without any intervention, the day-of-supervisor spoke with me to let me know they would extend it according to plan, and corrected everything. They also replaced my sump pump, which was not the easiest thing due to a seized grate closure (see pics), and at a fraction of the price quoted by plumbers. I was really impressed with how quick everything was completed, and for a job like this (digging long trenches to run PVC), my yard looks nearly immaculate. They gave me instructions to heal the grass patches so my lawn would look as it did before in no time. After the work was done, Cliff reached out to make sure all was working well when it rained. I highly recommend reaching out to Nature's Friend for any of your needs -- you can tell they really care about their customers, and I will be reaching out to them for any future landscaping needs.

First I'd like to say that it is easier to reach Jon through his email Jongreencare@ymail.com. I…read morereached out directly through Yelp, didn't receive a response and after a day or two...ultimately went with another contractor(or tried). I setup an appointment with the other contractor and they no-call no-showed. I'm glad they did, because Jon contacted me a few days later apologizing for the delayed response on Yelp and asked if I could continue the conversation via email(hence my original note in this review). There was a princess tree or something of that nature that sprouted up last year and needed to go as it was getting out of control, my wife wanted weeds removed, washed rocks, and peonies in front. In the back we also finally decided to finish our walkway with flagstone. Jon was great to work with, responding to both texts and emails for verifications and changes throughout the process and pricing was competitive. Very happy with the end result and how quickly Jon and his team were able to finish everything. I highly recommend Bio Rich Green Care and I am looking forward to working with them in the future.

Great plant selection, outdoor landscaping equipment, trees and knowledgeable staff!…read more Pretty much you can find all things gardening, landscaping at this nursery. If you can't find it here, then it probably should not be in your garden. From the painted pots to the abundance of healthy and beautiful plants, this nursery is awesome. I came here looking for a few items for a landscaping project at my home and found everything I needed. The staff is super helpful and will go out of their way to get you the answers or whatever else you need. Prepare to spend a lot of time looking at the best selection of healthy, well taken care of plants in DMV...imho. If you need an idea of what to do in your outdoor space, this Nursery is the answer. Staff is so helpful and great to talk with! Highly recommend this place!

I was blown away by all the incredibly healthy-looking flowers, fruit trees, shrubs; a wide…read moreselection of seeds, fertilizers, soils, and all sorts of goodies for a well-seasoned or freshly green thumb. The staff is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to help with questions or guidance. As a photographer with a professional camera (Sony A7RV), it's refreshing to visit a photography-friendly nursery. The staff was overjoyed when I asked if photography was okay. The carts are double-tier and plentiful. When visiting with my mom and wife, we used the top tier for her plants and the bottom tier for ours, which made checkout really easy. The upper tier is also great for taller plants, while the bottom works well for heavier items like soil or planters. I was also made aware that you can buy a planter and flowers of your choice and the staff will pot them for you as well! The American Plant Food Company is surprisingly spacious. They have a large outdoor greenhouse with covered registers, fruit and witch hazel trees, and interesting shrubs. There was even a star-shaped shrub (they shaped a topiary with three vertical stars-super cool!). After parking, it's hard to decide whether to walk around or go inside first. But you'll definitely want to venture into the building before you leave. They have all sorts of knickknacks, watering cans, and seeds here. I know winter is almost over now, but they do have a fairly good selection of metal shovels and spades, which work well both for gardening and the weird snowy/icy weather we get here in the DMV. Be sure to head all the way back for the greenhouse with bamboo, venus flytraps, lemon and lime trees, gardenias, and all sorts of indoor plants. While inside I asked a staff member if I should repot or fertilize an infant (3-4 year old) coffee tree that's about 4.5 ft tall. The tree has been revived over the last two years and produced 1 fruit and 2-3 flowers. I wanted to know how to improve its growth. The staff member handed me Osmocote fertilizer pellets and advised half a capful once a month to help the tree. I'm relieved to finally get an answer, as most nurseries near me had no knowledge. Oh! I also found out from my mom that they offer landscaping and backyard design services. You can call them to come out to your house, advise on your budget and what you want to do, and they'll help you plan it! I'm definitely going to be calling them soon! I highly recommend the American Plant Food Company in Bethesda and will 1000% be back to do all my future garden shopping here!

I have only good things to say about District Landscapes, and Sean, its proprietor. We hired them…read moreto redo the small tiered garden outside in front of our townhouse--redoing the tiers and rebuilding the stone retaining walls for each, taking out pretty much all the old (suffering) plants, and planting new and different plants, more suitable to the shady conditions. They did a great job with all of that, for a very reasonable price. Sean did his initial "visit" with us by Zoom, which was a little unusual but worked just fine. And everything after that was great--good communication, reliable scheduling, adaptability in the face of an unforeseen problem, and good work. We're very glad we chose them.

We now have the best patio in our DC neighborhood, our drainage problems are nonexistent and we are able to host gatherings very easily with tons of fun! They provided options for a stone patio, paver patio, and a brick patio. Obviously, as you can see in the pictures, we went with the brick! I love the timeless look, and I think it goes really well with the rest of our yard and the look of our home. Special shout out to their Forman Erick and his two assistants!
