I love my garden! Nop helped me achieve my dream. His support and assistance helping me clarify what I wanted, and his knowledge of where to go and what kind of stone and plants to buy made it so much easier to achieve my goals. He helped us find a wonderful installer who placed the rocks and installed the irrigation, and planted the plants correctly. Nop's knowlege of native plants and what they need to thrive is extensive. His understanding of the type of watering system they need for the first couple summers in order to get established was very helpful. The thing I appreciate most is Nop's eye for beauty, grace, and harmony. I could see it in the photos of his work on his website and he was able to do the same thing in my garden. It feels good just to sit in it. Thank you again Nop, you did a fabulous job.

Twenty-eight years ago, our family was fortunate to find a great landscape designer and a great…read moreplant visionary to transform our backyard. We followed that project shortly afterward with a partial transformation of our front yard, using the same plant visionary who selected plants suitable for our neighborhood next to Almaden Quicksilver Park. As time and deer performed their own transformation, it became necessary to look for a new landscape designer and a new plant visionary, as the professionals with whom we worked more than a quarter century ago no longer were available. After a couple months of searching, we came upon Robin Salsburg and her business, Vision Garden Design, who we selected to redesign our front yard and facelift our backyard. Robin proved herself both a great landscape designer and a great plant visionary, consistent with her business name. Robin prepared detailed drawings, which were easy to understand, and gave us fun homework assignments when it came to selecting plants. There were a lot of species and varieties to consider, and Robin made it simple for us to pare down the number of plants by noting which ones we loved, which ones we could live with, and which ones we hated. When it finally came time for us to implement Robin's final design, we asked her to recommend landscape contractors, and then (with her assistance) interviewed four firms. We eventually settled on K&D Landscaping, and asked Robin to oversee the project to ensure her vision was fully implemented. Robin met weekly with the contractor and us, and after two months of construction the project came out even better than her wonderful two-dimensional drawings promised. We have worked with many design professionals, and we can wholeheartedly say that Robin is among the very best. She focused on our best interests throughout the design and construction phases. Looking back on the project, we feel as fortunate as we did 28 years ago, perhaps even more fortunate because Robin has made our front and backyards better than we ever dreamed.

We hired Robin to help us completely redesign our overgrown, neglected backyard, and we are so…read morethrilled with the results! Since we didn't know where to start with this project, we relied on Robin's great eye for design to envision the space, and she guided us through a step-by step process to help us make all the choices from pavers to plants, so the new garden looks exactly how we hoped it would. We also had Robin facilitate the installation - a must-have service for us. She worked closely with our contractor to ensure everything was implemented according to the design. We would absolutely recommend working with Robin for whatever project awaits you. She is knowledgeable, organized, responsive, kind, and worth every penny. We could not have done this project without her!

My vision was of an English Garden and a South of France aesthetic. We met several times and there were at least two design changes until we reached the final design, including the specific plants such as annuals, perennials, fruit trees, roses, aromatic vines, herbs, hydrangeas, ground covers, etc. His crew were on time, polite, and cleaned up after each day's work. In my conversations with Nikos, he mentioned the idea of an 'edible garden,' which could introduce different textures and colors to the yard. I must admit that I was not keen on mixing my lovely garden with vegetables, however, our yard gets the most sunlight in the middle section of the garden so it appealed to me. Nikos mentioned the work of Rosalind Creasy in her book 'Edible Landscaping,' and even gave me the book! Once I saw the ideas in the book and how they could mesh nicely with my English and French garden vibe, I realized I could have it all: a beautiful multicolored and fragrant garden with 'farm to table' capabilities. I couldn't be happier, and I highly recommend Terra Bella Landscaping for your gardening needs!
