Overall, everything concerning Gina Benzien went very well. I would strongly & enthusiastically recommend Gina! She is extremely talented, well-educated and a beautiful person inside and out. She was always so patient with me -- she's a great listener. In addition, she is quite flexible. If you tell her that an idea doesn't appeal to you, she offers an alternative without hesitation.

My regret on this project has absolutely nothing to do with Gina. I was extremely clear -- from day one -- regarding my budget. Nature Designs (who contracted with Gina) knew that I intended to complete the entire project with them. I never even considered doing the work in phases. Why we had this communication problem is still very puzzling to me.

Sadly, when Chris offered the final plans to me in mid-October, the only thing they could complete was the hardscape. The landscape & irrigation were offered -- as additional options -- and at a cost that would have added more than 35% to my original budget. So, I am going in a different direction.

I was glad to pay the fee for Gina's many visits, her hours of design work and many revisions. She had so many creative ideas for visual appeal -- as well as a thorough plan for drought-tolerant plants & trees. Her blueprints are fantastic. And she is a total JOY to work with!

Gina completely understood my vision for my front yard and filled in all the details. Her knowledge of plants and design skills are amazing. From our first meeting, she always listed to my suggestions and improved upon the ideas I gave her. She has since been by a few time to check the progress as things have grown in and given me some insight as to how to maintain and make new additions I am considering.
