Gary’s Greenery

A real gem. Creative, efficient and caring, Gary’s Greenery transformed an ugly plot into a lush oasis. I recommend him.

My yard was large and in disrepair. After Gary and his crew finished, it is so beautiful. Now this garden draws a whole new ecosystem of birds, bees and butterflies. It is such a pleasure to sit and watch the wildlife or pick herbs and veggies from my own soil! The colors of the flowers are like a treasure of gems. Gary got it right, and was more reasonable in price than the first company I contacted. For me this was an excellent experience. I recommend Gary’s work totally and it was fun too.

Gary is awesome! He turned our eyesore of a front yard into a thing of beauty. I have even seen other people taking pictures of our yard. With a master’s degree in horticulture, Gary knows his plants. He is super knowledgeable about native plants, using drought resistant species, and still making your yard look pretty. Gary put in a sprinkler system, installed accent lighting and built us a great retaining wall. He even made a trip to the nursery to show me all the various plant options and show me the plants he was suggesting we use. On top of all that, Gary is a genuinely good dude.

We hired Gary to landscape our front yard. A huge tree had fallen and destroyed our lawn and fence so we decided to take the opportunity to start fresh. He did a wonderful job picking out plants and listening to our wants. The yard looks beautiful. We also had him patch up our fence, repaint it. We added a second entrance/​gate for better access and had Gary add some Arizona flagstones for this new pathway. He also trimmed an existing tree (that was a massive job). We added more lighting. His crew worked diligently and we’re very thorough. He was one of the more reasonable quotes we got initially, but we kept adding things and asking for more so we went over budget in the end. If you are on a tight budget then make sure you ask Gary to keep a tally on the costs. I would recommend him and his crew in a heart beat!

Excellent work… made our backyard and frontyard look like a Hotel!

We hired Gary for new landscaping and to plant a small edible garden. After an initial burst of hard work by his workers, the last segments of the job were performed very slowly and seemingly without much planning. I had to ask for certain things to be done several times and still were not done. He also was not skilled in the edible garden planting; he planted way too many things in a small space and didn’t use appropriate soil. I have had to hire edible garden specialists who had to pull out many things I had just paid Gary to plant because they were inappropriate for the space and were put in at the wrong season. I wish he would have been more upfront about his proficiency in this area.

Gary designed and installed a hedge at our house, to block out a view we didn’t want. He was creative in what he suggested but also aware of budgetary limitations. We are thrilled with what he put in, it looks lovely. He also did some paver work, as we didn’t have a bed to put the hedge in at first, and again, that went very smoothly. And now we have him coming to do regular yard work which is great because we trust his knowledge of the trees and plants. Things are thriving and looking great! I highly recommend Gary and Gary’s Greenery.

Gary’s work is great. He really takes pride in his work and is very easy to talk to when concerns arise. He is very honest and very reasonably priced.
He has a contractor’s license and a masters degree in horticulture. He came out to our property multiple times to take measurements before giving us an estimate which I appreciated because many landscapers seemed to pull their estimates out of the air.
We had him remodel our front and back yards by adding many plants, building fences around our property and a constructing a bench by the pool. He also leveled the ground in our backyard to make it more user friendly. He also installed sprinklers and lights all over. We have received may compliments on his work.
We went about 25% over budget because we made many additions to the job because we were pleased with the work. All this was easy to do because we felt Gary was a very honest, genuinely good person.
He now also does our monthly maintenance.

Gary does great work. Incredibly reasonable and talented landscape architect

I was in dire need to have my landscape revamped, and I interviewed several prospective businesses to do the job. Gary was professional, timely, and a pleasure to work with. He took what was a complete eyesore into a verifiable work of art. He put in a complete sprinkler and drip system and a beautiful array of plants, trees, and bushes. Spring is now upon us, and my front yard is a dazzling display of colors and plant life. He has also been wonderful to assist with the maintenance since he completed the work one year ago. I would recommend Gary highly.

Gary did a major makover of my backyard and patio and I am very happy with it. He is knowledgable and reliable. He does what he says he’s going to do. He quickly responds to any questions or concerns and he follows up to make sure the customer is satisfied.

Gary is conscientious and creative. Our front area needed some major work and overhaul. He came up with an attractive plan. We accepted it and he made it work. He also laid out a sprinkler system for the side and back yards. His price was competitive and he worked with us. You can check out his work at 6641 W. 6^th St. LA 90 048. Gary is also doing the monthly maintenance. And Gary has a current contractor’s license. We found few landscapers who had an active license. We are happy with his work.
