She came out and gave me an estimate on the spot. She charged a $50 consultation fee. If we used her then she would give the $50 credit but I chose not to use her. She was okay but was not what I was looking for. She was punctual. There were just a couple of things that I thought I'll discuss with her, she obviously wouldn't make modifications. I just didn't like the fact that I have this huge front view and it was going to be obstructed by a few trees. Compared to her, another service provider had a whole portfolio and a lot of pictures of his work. I can't complain about her. A couple of things that could have made her better was if she had a portfolio with a few pictures before and after work and if she would have maybe did a little bit more professional estimate. Her quote was more than $5000. She was here on schedule. She was professional but it all boils down to, "You're going to charge me a lot of money but you need to have a portfolio and some pictures."
Description of Work: The Petal Planter gave me a quote for re-landscaping my front yard.

Maintenance of the existing plants in the yard, re-potting where necessary, planting of color and plants in the yard. It went well. She is a delight to work with and has very good ideas.

The Petal Planter has taken care of our gardens for years. A number of years ago, Susie (the owner) redesigned the front beds and designed a flagstone walkway with plantings between the stones. We don't know much about gardening, and leave the choices of plants and flowers to her. She and her crew provide monthly maintenance and a twice-a-year replanting of annuals. People often stop their cars just to look at the front of the house, it is so inviting. For a special occasion, I asked if they could come and make it look as good as possible. To my amazement, Susie was able to fit us in almost immediately. In a few hours, and for a relatively modest amount of money, she did wonders. The whole yard absolutely looks its best....ready for a wonderful event!
Description of Work: Freshen the garden planting beds and outdoor pots with fresh color, trim bushes as needed, and make the yard inviting.

From start to finish, everything was done on time and looked great when I arrived much later. There was nothing for me to do except enjoy the new and much improved look!
Description of Work: I have used Susie and her services three times in the past 5 years and am always extremely satisfied. Susie suggests designs and types of plants/flowers that will grow well in your specific climate space sun or shade and watering needs etc. Her staff have been with her for many years and she personally oversees each job. I used her to redesign an overgrown pond into a lush paradise that required very little upkeep as I travel a lot and do not like to garden. This year she planted succulents for me in an area with little water access and it looks fabulous. She also does weekly or monthly or quarterly pruning/planting.

We couldn't be happier. We implemented Susie's ideas, and we now have a backyard more beautiful than we even imagined!
Description of Work: Landscape consultation. When we moved into our house, half of our backyard was a dirt wasteland. We wanted to transform it into something beautiful, but didn't know where to begin. Susie, the owner of the Petal Planter, came to our house for a consultation. She took a look at our property and asked us what we had in mind, taking into account our likes and dislikes. She recommended what types of plants we should have, and where to put them.
