Description of Work: I purchased a big deal for $99 for 150 Daffodils Planted for Spring Blooming. The service was good. We did have some issues getting a date that would work for both of us but that was due to my busy schedule. The weather has been cold; some of the daffodils are just starting to come up now. I liked not having to take care of the planting.

Very well. They even gave me the same price for my daughter, and I made a gift of their services to her, paying separately. They did both on the same day, and were very nice about it--splitting the two types of bulbs between us.
Description of Work: Planted spring bulbs. Two men did a fast thorough job.

When I hired "You Garden Curator" to re-do my front yard, I expected Robert to perform a miracle with my small fenced-in area of 18’ x 8-1/2’. Robert managed to design, and with his professional crew, quickly create a result far greater than my expectations. He was able to utilize some of my ideas and modify others in a way that was perfectly suited to the small area he was dealing with. I consider my new patio a gem! I am very happy to recommend him.
Description of Work: They built a new patio for me.

Robert and his team are really thorough and professional. He came out and gave very detailed estimates and great advice on how to fix our backyard. Even though there was a small delay in starting the project, he was very communicative and things moved along quickly once they got started. He is willing to work with your ideas and budget and gives really honest opinions on what would look best and make more sense in a landscape and hardscape. His team is really great and I felt very comfortable having them in my backyard, they were professional and friendly. I highly recommend Robert and his team and would definitely hire them again.
Description of Work: Concrete walls were filled in and painted. Built wooden retaining wall. Built wooden stairs. Installed granite steps. Installed paver patio.Poured concrete patio. Landscaping: clean up and new plants. Grass seed and mulch.

, Robert Monahan arrived for the consultation we scheduled on time, listened well to what I was looking for and gave some good ideas on the spot. He then promptly sent an e-mail with the work he proposed to do and a quote for the work. When I told him I wanted to proceed, he set up a time right away. When the weather delayed his work, he promptly let me know and immediately proposed an alternative time. He then showed up on time and performed the work efficiently and professionally, leaving everything looking lovely in time for a party my neighbor was having that afternoon. He returned a couple of hours after he finished to do some small last minute items he didn't have the tools for. He chose the plants himself that he planted in place of the ones that were removed. It's clear he was listening closely to what I wanted, as they are the colors and types that fit perfectly what I had in mind, even though I didn't articulate it as clearly as I wanted.
Description of Work: Advised on a plan for both my front and back yards, implemented the plan by removing bushes, moving plants and dividing and moving other plants, pruning and planting new plants, mulching and watering.

yRobert came highly recommended. He responded immediately to come for an estimate. His work is thorough and he and his team work quickly to get the job done well. He had not allocated enough time and went over the time he was giving me. Robert is extremely polite and wants to make your garden look wonderful.His prices are high, but his is well educated and knows what he is talking about. In my mind this makes him a better choice than an expensive self taught gardener who may not have the education he has.I would be very clear with him about what you want done, where and how. His estimates are thorough, but make sure you review what he is there to do so it all gets done. Robert was kind enough to return at a later date to fix some problem areas and do a few things I wanted done. He was kind enough to do this at no additional charge.
Description of Work: Robert came to weed the garden, make it look nice, and plant a tree. He also put down organic compost. Ask a lot of questions and don't assume that your expectations are the same as his. He knows a lot, so ask him and he is happy to provide thorough explanations.
