It's owned by Gary.  He does a splendid job.  He is just finishing up a big project for us.  We have been using him for two years and will continue to use him.  He's open to suggestions and does have a vision.  He works with us to fit what we want into that vision.  I like that.  We are very pleased with Green Thumbs Landscaping.

He did a good job. We had a couple of things that died and he came back and replaced them. He seems like a very honest guy and went out of his way to make sure we were happy.

We were selling our house and need a "quick fix" to help it sell and get it on the market quickly. Gary gave us great ideas of how to use what we already had in our yard to save money and what he could do. We had overgrown weeds in every planting bed. He was able to start the job within 2 days. He reset all the stone in the pond area. It looks amazing and is an eye-catcher when someone comes to our front door. Gary finished the job in two days. We listed our property last Thursday and it sold in two days. We think the extra landscaping made the difference to differentiate our house from others. He is wonderful to work with.

Gary had wonderful ideas and was a pleasure to work with. He helped us create a unique and creative landscaping plan. Gary guided us in choosing a nice variety of plants and has a deep knowledge of what plants will grow well in different conditions. Gary was proactive in communicating his work schedule and responsive to our questions and requests. He takes a lot of pride in his work and does a great deal of it himself to make sure it meets high standards.

Gary was able to meet our crunch deadline. We originally had a time line that was 2 months out, however when we called Gary and stated we need to push the time line up by 5 weeks, he said not problem. He got the job done faster than he agreed upon, which we were very happy about. Also, he provided us with a one year guarantee of our plants. Since this area was unfortunate to have a bad frost (out of the norm) he stated that the plants that needed to be replaced because of that, would. We would use Gary again and would highly recommend him for landscaping needs. He added a lot of curb appeal to our house.

Gary designed the lighting and flower beds for our newly finished backyard project. He installed lights in and around our water garden / koi pond. Additionally, he assisted in designing our flagstone patio to compliment his landscape and lighting design. Finally, he installed perimeter and deck lighting. Gary is customer service oriented. He listened and incorporated our ideas, wants and needs into his designs and vision of what the finished project would look like. The lighting is very creative and brings out the best in our pond, patio, deck, trees and statuary. He created and filled the flower beds with a great variety of bushes and flowering plants. All of his plants carry a one year guarantee. We really like the final product and would not hesitate to utilize Gary for future projects.

Gary was a pleasure to work with. He came and looked over the location of the landscaping and we discussed the project's requirements. We then got together and he presented his plan along with cost analysis and showed me a sample of each plant he had in mind. He was very open to changes and was mindful of my budget. He came and planted everything and installed the drip line in a timely manner. He takes pride in his work and works hard to please you as a customer.

Excellent work! My knowledge of plants and Gary's ideas and hard work created a unique landscape design that has become the star of my neighborhood. It was a pleasure to work with him, and I definitely would recommend him to my friends and family, and I definitely will hire him again when I do more work in the landscape.
