She was very conscious of what I wanted and she was very comprehensive. I wanted to do the work myself because I like to do that and she provided me with all the tools to do it myself including the design and what kind of plants I should plant.

They were fine. Their pricing was reasonable. Their quote was simple and straightforward, they made it easy. They just came out and took a look and I had the quote back in a couple of days.

Marilu's design is fabulous. She took great advantage of sight lines and color combinations to create a unique yard we are extremely proud of. Her help, after the design, finding stone and, in particular, plants thrrough her connections with My Garden and other sources was absolutely invaluable. We couldn't be happier with the design or, thanks to her help, the finished landscaping.
Description of Work: Marilu designed new landscaping for our front yard, helped us select plants and directed us to a stone supplier where we could get a good deal. After the design she helped us select plants (and got us great prices) and gave us valuable information about planting, soil preparation and so on.
