Very well. Work was completed faster than I anticipated. I've used Green Gene's for many years so I was not surprised by the results.
Description of Work: Installed raised bed, excavated. installed garden cloth and applied gravel for a minimalist effect around the garden, moved and transplanted existing plants throughout, applied mulch and cleaned up the site.

I called and Eugene called me back quickly. It's tough to get folks to look at ponds because not many people have experience with this. He came out and looked at the yard and the pond and equipment and sent me an estimate about 10 days later. Once they started the work, it was done the next day. He taught me a lot about the other plants and trees and shrubs in my new yard. They also did an excellent job cleaning up before they left.
Description of Work: Called in to remove a pond and filtering equipment and remove a tangle of honeysuckle vines as well as a pear tree and also clean up my dry creek bed. They had to remove underground pond pipes, cinderblocks, stone, etc. and also put back some shrubs removed during the honeysuckle removal. They did an excellent job. Would recommend Green Gene's in a heartbeat.

If your goal is to kill the grass and grow lots of weeds, Green Gene's Horticulture is the company you want to use. If your goal is a beautiful lawn, do not use Green Gene's Horticulture. When I first hired the company, I had decent grass coverage and some weeds. After nearly a year's worth of treatments I had large areas where the grass had been killed entirely, leaving nothing but dirt and weeds. I have many more weeds than when I began the service. My lawn is an embarrassment and the comment I frequently hear from visitors is, ''What happened to your grass?''
Description of Work: Payment was for a years worth of monthly lawn treatments: seeding, weed-killing and fertilizing.

Response from Green Gene's Horticulture
Member/Client failed to mention that he rarely cut the grass in a timely manner to allow the products to work effectively as recommended by the manufacturers. The grass was always taller than NCSU's recommendations for Fescue lawns. Kids toys were always left in the grass areas that needed to be treated making it almost impossible to treat the lawn in a timely manner. Client refused to water grass as recommended. He rarely followed any directions pertaining to his lawn and couldn't understand why the lawn did not look perfect. We worked with the client as long as we could and often provided free services to help him with his lawn but he continued to work against us and the recommendations that were made time after time. We have many happy clients who have excellent lawns and will provide recommendations as requested. This contract was a tough one to work with but we never like to leave a project or contract with a dissatisfied client or customer and regret that this member felt this way. However only he knows the truth and needs to take some responsibility for posting a false inaccurate report without providing all of the facts as per the contract he signed. All contracts are shared responsibilities between the client and our company offering a specific service. They are a meeting or the minds and this member/client failed to hold his end of the contractual agreement. Our track record speaks for itself and we work closely with clients to help them reach their goals. We have been in business for 23 years and have had very few negative comments as this one is a complete shock.
