Wonderful to work with. On time, very communicative and knowledgeable about all aspects of gardening and providing service. A pleasure to work with. Very happy with the results of her work. Our garden has never looked better. It was a weed mess and now it looks like a completely different garden.

Details: Residential • Maintain an existing garden • Small (1,000 - 2,500 sq ft) • Yes, I will provide plants • I don't need a sprinkler or drip system installed • No, this is a one-time project • Weeding • Weed prevention

Siedeh, the Alternative Horticulturalist, is great. She actually knows something about flowers and gardens - unlike most of the"so called" landscapers I have met. She is not just there to whack things down, though she does know how to do that do. She knows what shrubs, flowers, etc., need in terms of nutrition, growth, light, etc. I was very happy with the work she did in my garden

Details: Residential • I am not creating or replacing a garden • Extra small (less than 1,000 sq ft) • Yes, the plants will be provided • No, I already have a sprinkler or drip system • No lawncare services needed

Siedeh contacted me shortly after I posted what I was looking for on Thumbtack. We made an appointment and she understood what I wanted in my garden. She sent pictures of many plants/flowers for me to choose from based on where they were to be planted. She was punctual on the day the plantings were done and left no mess. I was very happy with her work and ideas. I believe I received a good value for the cost. She's returning to complete another small project in my yard. I highly recommend The Alternative Horticulturist.

Details: I want to change a few smaller things in my current landscape (e.g. plant flowers, trim shrubs, replace sprinkler head) • No existing plans - need design suggestions • Plant flower beds • Small (less than 1,000 sq ft) • Backyard • No, this is a one-time project • Home
