Krohs Nursery

After the review, they called and apologized. Krohs replaced the plant and did the mulching. They did a great job. They replaced the dead plant and others that were not doing well. We are very pleased with the landscaping and thankful that Krohs completed the work. Krohs did a great job in clearing up the misunderstanding.

 Pro:  Basic patio installation was satisfactory, trees planted seemed good quality and done well.   

 Con: Working staff had a late start and rushed to finish job on last day relying too much on use of mulch for pathways that resulted  in steps that were uneven and sloppy. Many field stone steps tilted and moved under foot during family gathering  the following day.   I lifted some stones to try and stabilize them and  revealed that while one edge might be laying on 1 inch of mulch the other end had 8-12 inches of mulch so very  spongy and unstable.   Also many had wide gaps with soft mulch in between that presented a trip hazard.   

They really are very helpful. If you shop around they are pretty good prices. Everything that you need for gardening they have it. They're very convenient.

It was a tremendous disappointment.

Pre-work was very detailed. discussed all plants and their place in the landscape design. Workers arrived on time. Very efficient.
I am waiting for a followup to see what has survived the winter and what will be done to those plants that did not.
Will provide follow up after spring inspection

This saga went on for two years.  Beware.  He will promise more than he delivers.  He will suggest landscaping ideas and then charge over-inflated price, e.g. planted 22 hostas underneath a tree with a soaker hose (never used it) and mulch.  Charged $55 each for plants which ranged in price from $3 to $8.  Suggested application of mulch at the side of house where a stone path was laid, said his workers had tilled the soil first before applying mulch.  This was a lie which resulted in my wasting over $100 of strawberry plants because the ground under the mulch was too hard for me to dig up for planting.  Promised to apply some kind of polymer between each of the stones in the patio.  Instead, put in sand which washed out the first time I washed the patio down.  Tried to collect final payment without the job being completed.  I would not recommend you use this landscaper at all.  He came in with a low bid initially but the prices will keep going up and up.  Avoid at all costs unless you have a bottomless pocketbook!

THE QUALITY OF THE TREES WERE OKAY FOR THE MONEY WE SPENT. I WOULD HAVE LIKED A LITTLE BETTER SERVICE WHILE WE WERE THERE TRYING TO DECIDE ON TREES.

THE SERVICE WAS ALWAYS GREAT AND DEPENDABLE. ALL TREES AND SHRUBS WERE A CATEGORY A, LOOK GREAT, AND HAVE LASTED. THEY ARE KNOWLEDGEABLE AND ARE ALWAYS WILLING TO HELP.

KROH'S STAFF WAS VERY HELPFUL IN ASSISTING WITH OUR LANDSCAPING NEEDS. THEY OFFERED CREATIVE SUGGESTIONS ON PLANTS AND THEIR LOCATIONS. THEY WERE VERY EFFICIENT WITH THE EXECUTION AND COMPLETION OF THE PROJECT. OVERALL WE WERE VERY PLEASED AS WELL AS WITH THE FOLLOW UP CUSTOMER SERVICE.

KROH'S DID A GOOD JOB WITH EVERYTHING. IT'S BEEN OVER A YEAR SINCE THEY DID THE WORK AND THE TREES ARE DOING GREAT. ALL THE TREES HAVE TAKEN ROOT VERY WELL. I WOULD RECOMMEND KROH'S WORK TO EVERYONE.

THEY WERE GREAT TO WORK WITH ON THE DESIGN AND PLANTING PHASES. WORK WAS COMPLETED PROMPTLY AND THE YARD WAS LEFT IN GREAT SHAPE. WHEN SOME PLANTS DIED THEY REPLACED THEM THE FOLLOWING YEAR.

THEY WERE VERY FAST, EFFICIENT AND COURTEOUS. THEY DID THE JOB WELL AND DID NOT OVER CHARGE US. THEY EVEN BACK BILLED THE THE ROCK WITH A FEW YARDS OF TOP SOIL
