"The garden looks the way I imagined and wanted. I bought some yard furniture with the last of my budget. Thanks for all your hard work. I'll be happy to recommend you to anyone. I'll give a glowing report on Angie's List, too. It's been a pleasure to work with you."
--K. Marburger

"Jaylene helped me attain the garden of my dreams. She created paths from the front of my house to the back, leading beyond the choisya to my hot tub. She brought me plants I'd never heard of, chocolate akebia draping over one fence with another white bloomer on another fence. Clematis ran up the side of my garden. A forever blooming daphne graced my front garden and little fairy ferns created a little side garden heaven for me. And I didn't have to deal with watering because Jaylene installed drip irrigation for me! Jaylene was a joy to work with."

"Thanks so much for the great work! I can't wait to plant those pots and sit back and sip some ice tea rather than fight that hose!"
