I am sitting in my yard this morning just in awe of what Schilling Horticultural Group has created. Nine months ago, this was a blank slate--literally just a dirt lot. I was very specific about wanting a landscape that prioritized native plants, and they didn't just meet that goal; they absolutely nailed it. ​It's now spring, and watching the yard come into bloom has been a complete joy. The trees they hand-picked are gorgeous, and I have these stunning vines with orange blossoms that provide such a beautiful aesthetic. What I love most, though, is how alive the yard feels; I have bees and butterflies coming through daily to visit the native habitat they established. ​It has become my favorite morning ritual to just sit out here and take it all in. What they've done is honestly life-enhancing. It's one thing to have a "nice yard," but it's another to have a space that feels this vibrant and intentional. I can't thank them enough for their expertise and for giving me a space I truly enjoy walking through every single day. If you're looking for a team that truly understands horticulture and honors the local environment, this is it. read more

We recently hired Norm Schilling's Horticulture Group to change our backyard from a high-water using lawn to a desert landscape and desert tortoise habitat. We were fortunate to work with Laura their architect to design the layout and to help us select the right plants and trees. Carlos, the supervisor was extremely helpful in making sure that our needs were met and that the project was on track. We are very pleased with the results and hope that Franklin, our new desert tortoise enjoys the yard as much as we do! read more

We had Schilling Horticulture Group out for the second time to trim the trees in our front yard. As with their first visit they were on time, very friendly and professional. They did such a good job with the cleanup you couldn't tell them had been there. We definitely would recommend them. read more

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! My wife and I would have been fine with a couple mishaps in regard to the employees but when I finally spoke to the owner Norm he was very unprofessional and downright rude! There are much better companies out there! read more

We decided to do a complete landscaping overhaul, front and back.  Our yard had grass when we bought the house and the sprinkler system was failing.  We had been making bandaid fixes until we had enough saved up and then also could no longer make the fixes without a much larger sprinkler system fix.  It was time. We called a few companies for quotes and selected Schilling Horticulture.  Norm came out and talked with us and got an idea what we were looking for and what our goal was.  We then met with our designer, Laura, and she got a more detailed idea of what we were looking for.  She and Carlos came out and measured our yard and we were then presented with a beautiful design plan and binder.  Laura took the time to go over the design with us, the plants and trees that she selected, the materials that were going to be used; everything was put nicely into a binder with plant information sheets and scaled design plan.  We made a few minor changes and the plan was finalized. When it was time for work to begin, Carlos and his crew arrived and immediately got to work on demolition.  We consistently had the same two crewmembers, Ever and Jose, along with more guys on site as more work was needed.  Ever and Jose worked so hard!  They were on site every morning, and at the end of each day cleaned up the work site and made sure everything was put away, both in our yard and on the street where the materials were delivered and dumpster was placed.  The care and details they took through each step of the process was impeccable. They made sure the site was clean at the end of each day.  When the plants arrived, they took care to place the plants according to plan and then to be careful walking around once the plants were in the ground. I had saved one plant from the original yard and wanted it replanted next to our chaste tree.  I spoke with Ever about this and he made sure it was taken care of and that a drip line was added so this rescue plant would get water.  A funny story, on a site visit, I was talking with Laura and explaining this at the same time that Ever was explaining it to Carlos.  I appreciate the care that was taken for this small request. Every day we could see the progress made.  And throughout the month, the work came together.  We were extremely impressed with how quickly everything happened once work started.  For our complete overhaul, they were finished in three weeks!   The process was lengthy (it was little over a year from our first discussion to the time work started - they are a busy company!) Laura made sure we understood this at the start, and was communicative throughout the process and the wait.  The finished yard/landscaping was well worth the wait and we are so happy with our new yard and landscaping! At the final walk-through we were given instructions for maintenance, how to work the new irrigation timer and lighting controls.  And will have another site visit in six months to make sure all the plants and trees have taken well and are thriving. We could not be happier with the completed work and know that we made the right choice with Schilling Horticulture!  Norm and Laura were wonderful to work with; Carlos and Laura were always available for any questions. Ever and Jose were hard workers and were so nice.  Schilling Horticulture = AMAZING! read more

I had a consult done for my front and back yard. Norm Schilling is very honest and does not try to push unnecessary services. He is extremely knowledgeable regarding landscape choices for our desert climate. It's obvious that he knows what he is doing, he's very friendly and he provides an abundance of reliable and helpful information! read more

We are about to convert our grass front yard to a drought tolerant landscape. We found Norms website and were struck by the photos of his landscapes and wonderful resources. My partner Erik and I were struggling with where to start as far as removing the grass and managing all the rouge palm tree babies and ivy growing all over our half acre lot. I called Norm to see if he could help guide us. He could not have been nicer on the phone. Spent time with me sharing his very impressive background and his extensive knowledge about plants. We hired Norm to come give us advice about how to approach our landscaping project. Boy was that money well spent! Erik and I were very grateful for all of Norm's detailed knowledge about the plants on our property and how we can care for them. He told us exactly how to kill the grass in the front yard and how to get rid of the trees that were at some point going to damage our pool. I was about to buy weed tarp and he said no don't do it. Norm saved us a lot of time and money. He also really got us excited about what plants would work well and how much we could do with our property. Super grateful! I highly recommend Norm for any of your landscaping needs! He knows his stuff. read more

We had Norm out today for a consult for a possible turf conversion. It wasn't a free consult, but it was well worth the cost for all the advice he gave me. In the end I may not convert (because I have a few trees that may not be able to tolerate it), but I'm still considering options with my yard. If you are looking for someone who will not rush through this initial phase; who obviously loves their work; and who is incredibly knowledgable, then Schilling Horticulture would be my first pick. Check out their website! The photos of their work are amazing. I would highly recommend them, even though the consult is as far as I've gotten. I will almost certainly use them but have decisions to make first. Norm gives you plenty of into to help make those decisions. read more

I've worked with Schilling for a few years. I have a mulberry that's aging but it's gorgeous since I've been working with Schilling. They trimmed the dead branches, did some shaping, and added fertilizer twice a year and now it's one of the trees that is a pride of the neighborhood. They are who I trust now to take care of my trees to trim or prune and honor their age and beauty. Today I called about a sprinkler leak. Roger came within the hour and had it fixed within half an hour of being here. There was a diaphragm on the sprinkler valve that was leaking. He verified that was the culprit and replaced that part lickety split. While he was here, he showed me how to turn the sprinkler water valves on and off, and how to read my water meter to make sure I don't have any leaks. Pretty great with all of the education and having it all done in under a couple of hours from when I called. read more

Their horticulturalist Roger came by today to discuss maintenance of the beautiful backyard the company completed for us last year. He gave me a few recommendations and tips and was very helpful and professional. They are always quick, friendly and knowledgeable anytime we have a question or concerns. I wish these stars went up to 11 because that's how pleased we are with their service. read more

Norm Schilling came to our home to provide advice on the potential conversion of our backyard to desert landscape. Norm's vast knowledge about desert landscaping and especially trees was well worth the investment. Norm is an excellent communicator. Not only does Norm speak and teach in a way that is very easy to understand, but he also listens to the client and finds out their needs. The whole experience was fantastic. Prior to his consultation, we had no idea what could be done or how to even get started. Norm's consultation has set us on a guided course with possibilities we did not even previously imagine. Thanks Norm!! read more

Such a great company with great people. From the design of our landscape to the maintenance they are top flight. We've been nothing but pleased. read more

When I purchased my home I had very mature landscaping. There was a 150 feet row of Oleander which were thin and new growth was very limited. I was considering replacing them. Norm came to my home and suggested 2 annual fertilizations per year and assured me the oleanders would flourish, and they have! The plants are now full and amazing growth has filled in all gaps. We could not be happier with the abundance of beautiful flowers. Plus it saved me so much with not having to replace the plants. read more

We have lived in Las Vegas for nearly 18 years and have worked with many contractors. Schilling Horticutlure is in a class by itself. After much research, we selected Schilling to re-landscape our back yard to make it more beautiful and sustainable. EVERY single contact and interaction with this company was at a level of professionalism rarely seen; from the initial consultation with Norm, to working with Landscape Architect, Laura, to the actual install process led by Carlos...the superior Crew Supervisor. The crew was impressively professional: always right on time, unfailingly polite, extremely hard-working and tidy. Their attention to detail is extraordinary and their responsiveness to us as the homeowners is exemplary. We are THRILLED with our gorgeous new back yard and highly recommend Schilling Horticulture to anyone desiring top notch design, execution and customer service. read more

I first used Schilling for a tree replacement and monthly maintenance at my old house. When I moved, the tiny back yard in my new house was just dirt and a sad tree so I contacted Schilling for a new design. Sandra and the main landscaper (completely blanking on his name) came out and we worked out a design for what I wanted. Once I got my approvals from the HOA it all went in quickly. There were a couple of small items that needed fixing but they were addressed promptly. A few months ago the tree that was planted started looking not so hot and one of my plants had died. The plant was quickly replaced with a different type after I called and Sandra tried a few things with the tree and it's coming back nicely. I haven't had need yet of monthly maintenance since the yard is so small and not many weeds find purchase, but I may start again as my garden grows. read more

Norm came out to meet my husband and I to do a consultation. His consultation was very detailed and client oriented. He made us feel comfortable and did not pressure us into any sales. He answered all of our questions professionally and went above and beyond the consultation by adjusting our irrigation schedule and doing minor pruning as he talked about each plant and tree. He's honest and hardworking. I don't have any gardening experience and we learned a lot. Thank you read more

Norm's passion and knowledge is on display from the second you meet him. The way Norm will provide an honest opinion without pushing his services is very rare in any industry. I will never use anyone else. read more

In August of 2017, we hired Schilling Horticulture to landscape our front and back yards. It was arguably the hottest month of the year, and every day the summer heat was beating down, Carlos and his work crew, but nothing stopped them and they kept on working as hard as they could. I always knew that landscaping is a lot of work, but I never knew how much time and sweat it would take, to finish our yard. It seems as though there is little praise given to the people that do such hard and wonderful work. Carlos, Ismael, Alejandro, Francisco and Tata definitely deserve to be commended for the high level of skill and endurance they exercised working around our home. My family and I appreciate everything the crew did, to transform our yard from a dirty lot, into a relaxing desert oasis. Everything looks fantastic and I would recommend Schilling to anybody. read more

I initially hired Schilling Horticulture Group to remove two Mimosa trees that had become infested with borers. Norm Schilling is a certified arborist and he provided very cogent advice about what to do. As a result, we have hired them to do an overhaul of our front landscaping. They completed it in roughly two weeks and the results have been spectacular. They are not cheap; if you are looking to add a few trees, flowers and shrubs to your yard at a low price, this is not the company for you. When we told Mr. Schilling that we were interested in re-doing our front yard, he set up an appointment with Laura, their designer. Laura is a fountain of information about plant life and how it will work in the desert. She came to our home initially and spoke to my wife and I about what we wanted. The talk was in great detail and by this conversation, she got a feel for what we were looking for. We replaced what had been a semi-desert landscape with a full desert landscape. We removed all grass that was there and all non-desert plants and shrubs. Laura laid out a design that was brilliantly conceived. On the plan, she included a color-coded guide to all the plant material that detailed what went where. She also provided us a binder filled with information on every thing she planted. This cost $1,500, which was applied to the cost of the project if we accepted but was non-refundable if we did not. So you really have to be serious to take that step, but it was well worth it. We did and the team came out and was extremely professional. They brought their own Porta Potty, which stayed on site the entire time, so they weren't disturbing us looking to use the bathroom. They also had a dumpster on site the entire time and changed it as it filled. The foreman, Carlos, was very communicative with me and easy to work with. We made a few, very slight changes, to the design. In one, we had a California Pepper tree that was scheduled to be removed. Our previous landscaper basically ruined it by topping it (Never top your trees, I have learned!) and it was supposed to be replaced by a Red Push Pistache. But as we were into the job, my wife didn't want to kill the tree, so we left it and put the Pistache in another spot on the landscape. The team was professional at doing their best to make the California Pepper presentable. They fixed what they could that the other landscaper had messed up, and we'll see what happens with it as we move forward. It is, though, 100 percent better. We made a few other changes -- we had a couple of baskets of flowers we'd bought at Home Depot a few months ago, and wanted those added into the design. They not only did it without complaint and very professionally, but they ran irrigation into the pot so we no longer have to hand water them. The work took two weeks, about eight working days overall, and it came out incredible. On the final walk through, Laura and Carlos went over in great detail what had been planted, what I needed to do to maintain it and handed me a multi-page typed document with information and instructions. There is no question that they are a premium priced company; we have subsequently hired them to do weekly maintenance, and that cost is almost four times what our prior landscaper charged. But they do far more work, and they've so far done it extraordinarily well. Hiring Schilling is like buying a Mercedes or a BMW instead of a Chevy or a Ford, but in my opinion, their knowledge, quality work and attention to detail make it well worth it. read more

I wanted to have an arborist prune my trees. As a long time gardener, I know how trees should look. On the first visit, our trees were assessed by the owner, Norm Schilling and his head arborist. On the second visit, 3 men came and did an outstanding job on the trees. I am very satisfied. I've often said trees are like kids, you have to train them when they're young. It really pays to hire qualified people to do this kind of work. read more

Norm came out and gave us a consultation for renovating our yard into drought-tolerant landscaping. He was very patient with all our questions and gave us great advice on the types of plants to install. He told us he would be happy to answer any follow-up questions and, sure enough, he graciously took our calls, helping us determine a watering schedule to ensure our new plants survive the hot summer. He not only has incredible knowledge of desert horticulture but great enthusiasm for what he does. read more

They did our front landscape 8 years ago. Some of the plants they put in are awful. They didn't space the irrigation with plant growth in mind and many of the plants grew over the sprinkler heads. It should have better for the price we paid. read more

Norm and the Schilling Horticulture Group are simply the best. Our property is just under a half acre and they transformed our backyard into an oasis. From their initial design to implementation, our experience could not have been better. It has been phenomenal working with a team that cares about what they do, what and how they plant and performs their services with integrity. Carlos, Manuel and the rest of the team exceeded our expectations at every turn. I would wholeheartedly and highly recommend them. Can't wait for them to do the front yard. read more

Interesting and puzzling experience, for sure. Pros: good design, good plant selection. Cons: false statements/promises, lying, and lack of regard for you as a customer once they "complete" the job. A roll of the dice. read more

Excellent work,very fair, honest and professional work. Great communication about what needs to be done, very knowledgeable about about all types of landscaping. Thorough cleanup. Highly recommended. read more

A great business with caring people. If you are looking for a company to help you with any of your landscaping needs, this is the company to do business with. Norm, the owner, knows his stuff and the Schilling staff are experts in their fields (i.e. trees, plants, maintenance, fertilization, design, etc.). The office staff are so nice to work with and they have always returned my calls promptly. They are not the cheapest out there but you get what you pay for. If you care about your landscaping, this is the company to do business with. read more

Our landscape remodel on a large cul de sac lot just wrapped up this week. Schilling would get 10 stars from us if that were an option. Norm (owner), the tree crew, Laura, Carlos, Ismael, Ediberto and Hilario plus all the support staff created an outstandingly beautiful and well thought out front and back yard remodel of our 29 year old landscape. Every day and every night when the lights come on, we just say "wow!!" Laura patiently created an exceptional design and made sure every item and plant was exactly in the correct spot. She frequently visited the site with her tape measure during construction and kept open communication with us every step of the way. Our landscape crew were top notch. Their professionalism, training and quality workmanship was evident throughout each day. Schilling treats their employees with respect and it shows!! It is said, you get what you pay for. In this case, nothing could be truer. The value, service and outcome make Schilling the best construction company around. read more

I had a water main leak right after Julie, Lorenzo and his team had planted some additional plants. After the company replacing the water main had finished their work I texted Julie and asked that Lorenzo etal return and put my yard back to perfect, the way they had left it prior to the leak. They returned the following day, what better service, and found plants that had been buried, checked on all the new plantings and got the rocks put back the way they should be. They also repaired a sprinkler leak all with a smile. Lorenzo did tell me that I should call the water main company back to put the yard back to how it should be but to me it was not worth it. I love all the people I have met in this company and will definitely have them back in the fall for regular maintenance. I have never been happier with a landscaping service. Their knowledge is exceptional. read more

Norm with his Foreman Carlos came to my mature landscaped yard and where Geniuses at fixing the damage that had been done by a different tree company in Vegas. Their knowledge of the types of old trees in my yard and how to properly take care of them not just now but the health and care for the trees long-term was incredibly impressive! read more

I had a consultation with Norm and I had pruning done on two trees. Don't trust anyone else with your trees! You can tell from talking with Norm that he really cares about what is best for your plants (he is a fountain of information!) and he trains his group to know what they are doing. Las vegas is a rough environment, so I think it's important to have someone with experience and knowledge in this field. read more

The service is always impeccable. Marisa is attentive to scheduling. Francisco explains the process accurately and his work is meticulous.

It has been 10 months since Schilling Horticulture made our backyard dreams come true. We are still thrilled with our decision. They have kept in touch with us and have addressed any issues we have had. It is middle of August and our landscape is thriving. We highly recommend this company read more

We used them for a complete landscape design. They were expensive but we heard that they did a good job. Their installation was terrrible. Plants were installed incorrectly and not according to plan. We were given a 6 month warranty on the plants. Because of both the installation and the selection of plants not appropriate for the local winter temperature, about 30% of the plants died between 5 and 8 months from the date of installation. They only replaced some of the plants, said that they lost money on the job and would not replace the balance of the plants. They said the death of the plants were an act of god-the weather. Do not use them. They do not stand by their work. It is now two years since their design and installation. Their designer has left their employ. Approximately 40% of the installed plants have died and several cactus have fallen over because of improper installation. I have called them for assistance but they do not return telephone calls. They do not measure up to their reputation. read more

Schilling Horticulture installed our back yard landscaping one year ago this month. I waited to write a review because a former landscape designer had done a small project for us, and after a year we had lost many plants. I am delighted! The few plants we lost were immediately replaced. I now walk outside into a georgeous, flowering, draught tolerant garden, and I couldn't be happier. Laura Miller took all my likes and dislikes into account, and patiently worked around our schedules. Carlos Cardona as head of the installation team couldn't have been more accommodating to work with. I recommend them highly! read more
