one-time pro help

13 years ago

Need a one-time pro hire to finish our side and back gardens (small)and container plantings - borders, mulching, ground cover, some repotting and rearranging, attaching/trellising to stucco wall; then we'll be able to maintain. Our gardener mows every two weeks, does some trimming, etc, but I feel like we need a combo master gardener, designer, installer, arborist (son non fruiting trees)for this one shot project. I know this can run well into the thousands, and can pay, but nothing exhorbitant. Any suggestions?

Thanks !

Be sure to see work he has done. There is a lot of variation in what is acceptable to one and a mess to another. Al

I recommend my gardener/handy man, but I am not sure if you live close enough. He is east bay based. If you are interested, drop me a line. He is really reasonably priced and has a good eye.
