Garden maintenance

I called on The Garden Girls to give me a helping hand to keep my garden looking great. They have done a wonderful job. My husband would tell you that I am very particular about my garden and I am very happy with the quality of the work. Thank you Darla and the Garden Girls.

Thanks Donna for taking the time to write a review. We are new to your property this fall. We so look forward to being able to see your beautiful gardens in the other seasons. We try to take the stress out of having someone else come in and take care of your gardens as they are personal space and we each take care of them differently. So our approach is to love your gardens as much as you do!

Spring cleanup, yard maintenance, plus planting

The Garden Girls are an absolute JOY to work with! They did a fall cleanup for us last year and we brought them back for a spring cleanup this year. Later on in the summer, we found ourselves in a bind with a wedding reception in our garden fast approaching and the weeds completely overgrown. We called them back in last minute to overhaul the flower beds, and they came through big time. The garden looked spectacular for the wedding, all thanks to Darla and her professional team. The Garden Girls do great work at a great price! See you next spring!

Thanks so much Mark & Kelly for taking time to write us a review. Just as you hope to get back to normal after all the busy planning time for a wedding, life gets busier!! We really enjoyed the quick makeover we did to give you some colour in the yard for the wedding, as well as some lovely new plants at the front entrance. Can't wait to come back and see it all grow in next year!

Seasonal garden care

The Garden Girls took care of the weeding, replanting and reorganizing the flower / plant garden I inherited from the previous owners. They took it from overgrown, heavily weedy, mess to something more in line with my own preferences. The Garden Girls were incredibly knowledgeable, professional and paid great attention to detail. I'm very, very happy and looking forward to working with them again next year on a much anticipated vegetable garden.

Louise it was a pleasure to help you sort out your likes and dislikes of the garden you inherited.We like when a new owner starts to enjoy the space as their own. We are eagerly awaiting helping you plant and nurture your first vegetable garden.

Decorating for my daughter's upcoming wedding

Summer 2013, it was the week before my daughter's Bridal Garden Tea Party and I desperately needed help! I could not keep both the front garden and the back garden in tip top shape for the bridal shower so I sent a "cry for help" to Darla, my ultimate and most trusted garden professional.

Darla and the Garden Girls pulled weeds, planted flowers and trimmed my trees. They kept the grass as green as ever by watering it all day so that it looked perfect on the day of the shower. It was indeed a beautiful bridal shower in the most beautiful surroundings.

Thanks Darla, Lucy and the Garden Girls, without you I could not have done it!

Yasmin, The Garden Girls were so happy to help you get the last few things ready for the bridal shower. The pressure of knowing we would take care of the outside I think brought you great comfort so you could focus on getting other things ready so you knew things would be perfect for your party! Thanks so much for having us help out.

They arrive with such eagerness and enthusiasm you think that it won"t last but it does! They like what they do and they are so good at it. Delightful help for the garden and me. And, after the garden is polished, waste carefully placed for pick up; they are off - still smiling. I just love them!

Seasonal Plant and Flower Arrangements

The Garden Girls have done our business's seasonal planters for two years now and they are always stunning! With every change of season, we look forward to what creativity and style the new arrangements will bring to our front entrance. As we are a veterinary hospital, we want our office to be welcoming to clients and the Garden Girls arrangements do just that. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a beautiful planters, great service and excellent value for money.

Gardening

My wife and I are seniors and we had the Garden Girls do work for us for the first time this past spring, summer and fall. Over 4 visits they did a winter cleanup , planted our flowers, weeded the gardens. They were a cheery, hard working, knowledgeable group of 4 or 5 women and easy to work with. The Garden Girls are our "go to" group and we recommend them highly. We also had the Garden Girls design and install a river rock border along the side of our house. Without their hard work it is questionable whether we could keep our property looking as good as we would like. We are happy to have found them.

Garden maintenance

We hired the Garden Girls to trim some plants that had gone crazy over the summer. They were very knowledgeable when they came for the quote, and overall they did a good job at a reasonable price. However, the lack of communication was an issue for us. They didn't tell us when they were coming, and they also didn't wait for us to respond to them with instructions on what we wanted trimmed and what we didn't. They claim that they sent an email which I never received, which I can't confirm, but I did receive every other email from them. Overall the quality of work and knowledge were good, but communication could be improved.

Thanks for your comments Allen. I am glad you felt we did do a good job at a reasonable price. I have to say as we worked we discussed the outcome of our work and "Taming of The Crazy" you felt you had, is how we approached your cleanup and weeding. In our initial consult visit you showed us around and we discussed all of the work that could be done and exactly how we would do it. We quoted a range of time time to do the work. With budget considerations you had, we replied that we would do our best to get around the whole property however if we couldn't do everything we discussed then where your priority be was the only answer we were waiting for.( IF we could not get all the way around, I do not like to leave things unfinished) I did email the expected day we were visiting on Wednesday September 4, 2013 at 3:40pm letting you know we could fit you in the next day (as we had an opening while we worked in your area). We attended your property, and were able to complete everything we discussed except some possible transplanting. We didn't do this as you had planted new plants in a the empty area that we discussed. They were in a manner that we could not add the plants that we had discussed possible splitting 2 or 3 hostas. It would have required rearranging plants you had planted and that was not within your budget, and timeframe. Also it is something we would have had to discuss which we had hoped to do after you got home and seeing it all cleaned and "Tamed". I am disappointed that you did not get the email, but I was completely thrilled with the "Tamed" outcome, We always try our very best to stick to budgets, properly finish jobs, and communicate clearly with the hope our customers will have faith and trust that their gardens are in good hands!
