Boston Master Gardeners

Joe and his crew do great work. I am a master gardener and would recommend Joe to all my friends and family.

Everything went smoothly as planned. No problems. My husband and I are very pleased and will hire Garden's by the Yard for more work next year.

The service went really well. The only warning I would give folks is that Garden's by the Yard is extremely busy taking care of their existing customers. This means your initial contact might take a bit - but once they are engaged (and now you are their customer) - then they are extremely punctual and get stuff done when they say they are going to get stuff done. Don't worry if the initial contact is slow - it is NOT reflective of how they perform once they are engaged. We have had MANY companies work with us on our yard. What I didn't realize is that all of the other companies we worked with basically knew nothing about yard care. For 15 years I have hired people who cut grass who aspire to being Yard Specialists - and they are not. Let me be clear - the people at Garden's by he Yard KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING - others I have tried - were clueless. Loved working with these folks - we will use them in the years to come. Wish we had found them 15 years ago - imagine the thousands I could have saved on wasted plantings and lawn care.

Jorge came by and give a reasonable quote. The cleanup performed well and they edged and mulch the garden bed. Both the lawn and garden look beautiful.

They were excellent. The owner is very intuitive and involved with what he does. He is very accommodating and they take very good care of us. Their pricing is excellent. We would recommend them.

These folks are the best! This is the 3rd year Your Garden Curator has handled Spring clean up and garden prep for me. They did the initial garden build out (fantastic job) and have maintained since. Bronagh, Robert and the entire crew are very responsive and their communication is outstanding. I highly recommend Your Garden Curator.

They are very professional. The people who drive by the house slow their cars to see the plantings. The man in charge has some of the nicest plantings in Massachusetts. He has a wonderful selection of plants. He makes great recommendations about stuff that works for you. There are some plants which don’t survive, but the plants planted by Katsura Gardens don’t need anything done the following year. Our house looks very pretty with all the different plantings. The yard looks very nice. I am very pleased with the quality of the work and the way it’s installed. The work is guaranteed. The overall design is quite nice too. My wife always wanted a nice yard. We have had the gardener come out every year for the last 2 or 3 years to do a section of the yard. It looks quite lovely and it’s quite nice. They have nice plants and you wouldn’t find such things at some other place. There are people who slow down and talk to my wife about our plants. It looks pretty. It’s lovely in the summertime. We look at the plantings when we sit down for breakfast and lunch. It’s a nice atmosphere. It’s gorgeous. We would use their services again without a doubt and we do recommend them to others. I am very happy to recommend them.

She seems to care about the garden as if it were her own. She makes design recommendations that really work. I have used her services for years, starting with when I lived in the country and had a large garden.

Leisha listened carefully to my wishes and proposed a creative and beautiful native plant garden. She was flexible as we encountered unforeseen challenges and her team did an excellent work installing a wildlife-friendly planting. I am very happy with Leisha and her team. I enthusiastically recommend her for garden design - and especially for anyone considering a rewinding or native plant project.

They did a very good job. The made the plan. They came out, they put 2 hours in, it was a very rainy day but they went through it and the flowers are now blooming out, i say it was a very nice experience.

Jim is amazing and incredibly talented. I found Jim as a referral from a friend of mine. His attention to detailed floored me!!! I originally had overgrown weeds and what ever was growing back there in my back yard and brown weeds in the front of my yard. It was embarassing. Jim came and looked it over and told me I needed a whole new lawn and he would put sod down. As far as the back yard, he would get rid of the jungle in the back yard. I hired him just expecting the minimum... Well...he did an outstanding job and more!!! Jim has an eye for landscaping. He put in a new front lawn with sod, lined my raised garden in the front with cobble stones I had lying around. The sod is perfectly cut and lined around the yard. Not a blade out of place. Cleaned up any leaves and other stuff that was around the bushes, I’m talking everything, only the bushes and mulch is there....he leveled out my back yard garden that was rocky and so uneven. My son has a scooter and drives up the side of the yard to get to the street. When Jim lined the edge of the grass with the cobble stones, he turned a few flat so my so could easily ride over them. The other cobbles stones were sticking up which looks great!!! He thought what was best on where to use each stone and did just that!!! Amazing!!! I have received numerous compliments from my neighbors. I posted pics on social media and everyone said the same thing...”WOW”. As the saying goes, attention to detail makes the scholar every time!!! Folks, Call Jim for your landscpaing needs!!! He is so talented and a down-to-earth gentleman. You will not be disappointed!!!!

They were excellent and I am having them come back to do some more work for me. They were little more expensive but they were worth the service.

Dom, did a wonderful job grading my driveway . He took the time to be sure it was properly drained and leveled. He was very personable and a pleasure to work with. He also noted that I had a great spot for a raised bed garden . I asked if he could do something like that . Which he did . I love my raised bed garden ! I would highly recommend Small Time Excavation.

Our water garden/waterfall was cleaned out today by Anthony & Joe , "The Pond Guys", and it sparkles. We have used MetroWest Water Gardens for a number of years and totally impressed with the top notch job Anthony & Joe do. Saw the company a number of years ago at the Boston Flower Show and pleased to have found them. Highly recommend them if you are considering putting in a watergarden/pond/waterfall and they are great on fall and spring pond care and cleanout. Careful if you have fish & frogs. They empty and power wash our garden in the spring and we look out on a crystal clear pond thanks to them. Also helpful with pond relates questions and they put out a helpful newsletter to customers on pond care through the seasons.

I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THE SERVICES OF SEQUENCIA GARDENS SO FAR, AND I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO WORKING WITH TESS ON THE INSTALLATION OF THE NEW GARDEN AREA SHE HAS DESIGNED. SHE HAS DONE EXTENSIVE WORK IN THE EXISTING GARDEN BEDS, WHICH WERE OVERGROWN AND CROWDED, BUT NOW ARE BEAUTIFUL AND REJUVENATED. TESS IS VERY RESPONSIVE, AND WORKS HARD TO MEET THE CLIENT'S NEEDS. HER COMMUNICATIONS ARE FREQUENT AND COMPLETE. SHE IS A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH. RATES ARE $55/HOUR FOR MAINTENANCE, AND $75/HOUR FOR DESIGN, WHICH SEEM REASONABLE FOR SUCH HIGH QUALITY WORK.
