Eric went over the details with me several times to include any changes that I wanted. Eric and Justin dug up and rearranged plants on the side of my house and removed plants and trees in the front with a beautiful collection of low lying shrubs and flowers. They also dug a ditch and laid pipe from the back of the yard to the front to drain at the end of the property. They worked tirelessly in the heat for over 3 days until the job was complete and looked perfect. I love what they did and would recommend this company to anyone!

Our small front yard needed a complete redesign. First Eric, the company owner, came by and gave me a design, with specifics, an estimate and dates. Overall, Eric told us what he was going to do and he did it in a timely fashion. Anytime he wasn't going to show up, he called us frequently and kept us updated. He is a very good communicator, which is key in any business. Though they specialize in smaller jobs, he seems to have a bank of related contractors when and if any heavy equipment type work is needed, or if he needs specialty plants brought in. The result was a beautiful front yard that draws compliments from friends and acquaintances, with beautiful, heat resistant plants that are appropriate for the setting.

"Hi [Member Name Removed], Thankyou so much for such a great review! It was a pleasure working with you. Looks like we inspired your neighbor as he gave me a call. I have to work on a makeover/design for him also. We certainly enjoy what we do. Best regards, Eric"

Better than I could have expected. It was great to have Eric be so thoughtful about the process and really tell us what was needed for a proper, healthy lawn in Florida. Eric truly knows how to take care of your lawn in the Florida heat. This was an excellent Angie's List find and I will continue to use Eric in the future for any yard projects.

Eric was quick to respond to my message sent on Angie's List. He setup a time to come visit me at my home in between his other jobs, and get an idea on what I wanted to have done. He allowed my vision to help drive his ideas and he offered other ideas for the flowerbeds and back yard area. Once the proposal was agreed upon, Eric and his crew setup a date and worked in the weather elements to get the job completed over a few days. Amazing results and very happy with the work. He also made follow-up call to ensure that any issues/questions I had were answered. Highly recommended.

We recently had landscaping done by Master Gardener Landscaping. We redesigned the front yard, added Foxtail Palm trees, plants and new rock. We also added plants and rock to the back yard as well. I would highly recommend Eric Morrison of Master Gardener Landscaping. Even though we hit a few glitches along the way, Eric was always right on top of it and took care of the problem. We very much appreciated his willingness to make sure we were satisfied. We also appreciated Eric and his employee’s punctuality, professionalism and dedication to the job at hand.

"[Member Name Removed], We really enjoyed working with you both. The new landscaping we agree really compliments your beautiful home, the nicest on the block of other nice homes. It really stands out! We enjoy doing more unique landscapes as well, such as your southwestern look. Thank you so much for the nice review. Eric"

Eric was great and his crew fabulous. When we first started project I wanted sod but no sprinkler. Eric explained needed to water everyday for first 30 days (maybe more if weather was warm) and hose sprinkles just didn't cut it. We also had a huge pine tree with very large roots. He gave me several options regarding the tree and yard. I was leaning toward rubber mulch but Eric explained tat might nt be good for my dogs ( I have 4 rescue cocker spaniels) as this mulch contains steel and it may hit the dogs paws. While I was getting permit for tree removal and getting the tree taken down I thought about what Eric told me. I kept asking question; he was very patient and did not laugh at my crude drawing of what I had envisioned for my backyard. He was very patient waiting to coordinate tree removal and irrigation installation. My sod was installed on March 10th a Saturday. I was glad it wasn't to hot for the crew. They did an awesome job and now we have a beautiful backyard. Thanks Eric and team.

Eric and his team properly and swiftly executed. Professionalism and punctuality were excellent, along with hard work and conviction. Mr. Morrison is a veteran of this industry and the results he produces are the proof. Our yard was a train wreck even when we bought this house 20 years ago. With a minimal time frame and a sharp mind, he has transformed our exterior image from the bland hyperbole it has always been to a luscious tropical paradise we have always dreamed of. Highly recommend!

"[Member Name Removed], Yes, it was quite an involved project for sure, but what a beautiful outcome. You and your family were awesome to work with! I saw your mom at the store the other day and she said you're getting a lot of compliments and enjoying the fire pit. That always makes us feel good about the work that we do. Thank you for such a nice review, Eric"

We moved into a new home days before hurricane Irma hit and owning two properties with significant landscape damage was incredibly stressful. My priority was addressing the home I was trying to sell and Eric (with his team) worked tirelessly to accomplish the mission. Our first meeting was on a Saturday (so helpful as I had just taken time off for the move) and I was impressed with Eric's knowledge and thoughtful approach. A harder working or nicer team is hard to find.

Eric and his staff were always punctual and extremely easy to work with. I have never seen such hard workers, especially in the FL August sun. Overall, my husband and I are extremely pleased with the results and would hire Master Gardener Landscaping for all our landscaping needs.

Eric and his team were wonderful. He took the time to explain how he proposed to resolve our irrigation issues, resulting in relandscaping the back of our house so that the water would run down and around the house and pool area. His price was reasonable and competitive with others. His team was efficient with attention to detail. And of course the most important thing is that now when we get the Florida summer rains, the water is no longer seeping into our pool area but redirecting around our house as was the plan.

Anthony and I are very pleased with the work project that Eric Morrison from Master Gardening did for us, from the tear-out of the old overgrown yard to the implementation of the Xeriscape yard which replace it. It's been about six months now and the yard still looks fresh and new. Eric provided excellent service, done on time and as stated in the project design, and the cost of the project was prepared within our budget guidelines. We would happily recommend Master Gardening to anyone looking for quality work at a reasonable price.

Eric came to my home promptly and provided design ideas and a quote to completely landscape, amend the irrigation and sod my front and back. He was professional, knowledgeable, courteous and always prompt. He and Chris worked tirelessly for many days and I am now so proud of my home's curb appeal. I would strongly encourage anyone looking for an honest, reliable, knowledgeable and talented company to call Eric Morrison with Master Gardener Landscaping. You will not be disappointed!

Eric was extremely professional throughout this project. He was dealing with a group of demanding Homeowners who could be very critical. He was able to work with us even though we changed our minds several times about what kind of landscaping we wanted and the landscape design was changed multiple times also. He provided excellent feedback and guidance always and his work is amazing!! he is very knowledgeable, and attentive to details. He has already gotten referral from this work!! All of the Homeowners are very pleased with how beautiful this project has turned out! We believe the value of our community has improved due to this renovation. We are very thankful that Eric was our Contractor!!

I've worked with several different landscape companies and interviewed several prospective companies (including some on Angie's List). Eric Morrison of Master Gardner is by far the best I've worked with. He is reliable, knowledgeable, very approachable/accessible, and above all, he does just beautiful work. I've been impressed every step of the way and I love my new yard. He was able to help me envision a way to transform a space that was an eye sore into a place I genuinely want to spend time in. He also has an eye for things that are not just going to look good, but will also be practical considering watering needs, light, and upkeep. I am confident we have a lasting, easily maintainable design that adds value to my home and solves some drainage issues. I'd highly recommend him to anyone.

The yard looks excellent following the trimming of various vegetation, relocation of a seating area, and cleanup of a pond, and general cleanup of grounds. Also, discussed the next phase of the landscape design.

Eric whipped my scruffy yard into shape, put down mulch, defined my border areas.  Sprinkler system is working perfectly now, yard looks manicured and organized again.  
I didn't want him to install a lot of additional planting because I enjoy playing in the dirt (and ran out of budget with the move), so he will help me design additional plantings later and deliver the plants for me to play in my yard!  Perfect solution, I now have a clean, ready palate for my gardening.
I've had professional yard work/design done before and found Eric's pricing very reasonable for the amount of work and time he invested in my project.
He is very thoughtful, smart and efficient.  I am single with two tween sons and had NO issues with allowing him access to my home/yard when I was not there.  He cleaned up all the debris, and didn't leave a mess for me to deal with.  When he left, the only evidence he had been there was a beautifully manicured yard with great curb appeal and a happy new home owner.
