Judy's Gardens & Design -

Sue Gellen

We have been working with Judy for a while now. We can be a challenging client as my husband and I can have pretty opposite ideas. But working with Judy has been great. She is very patient, brings great ideas and solutions. What she is particularly good at is really listening and getting an understanding of what we want (or think we want!) and making it come to life. Our backyard looks SO much better these days ... she has really created the "woodland" that we had been imagining.

We also, probably like most people, have big ideas but smaller budgets in mind. Judy has worked well with us to figure out what and where to spend and once we agree on a budget she works within it ... no surprises.

As an aside, she also does fine gardening for us and does excellent work. She does aesthetic pruning of our Japanese maples, crabapples, and other trees and they really look lovely.

Would recommend her to anyone who is looking for help making a landscaping vision come to life or wants to freshen up what you already have.

Judy is a joy to work with! She’s knowledgable, friendly, flexible, and a caring person.

She and her crew have done my monthly Fine Gardening for over two years now, and the garden has really bounced back! She's especially skilled at her aesthetic pruning of Japanese Maples. Mine look beautiful, and are very happy.

Judy brings the design and horticultural knowledge—that true care of gardens—that are far beyond typical mow and blow. Organic products and green solutions, which I value, are part of the service.

Her foreman, Jesus, is great to work with… helpful, positive and very accommodating of the additional pruning, irrigation work and adjustments that a small garden like mine needs.

Just give her a call. I’m glad I did!

Judy is first and foremost an artist and it comes through in her landscape design. And like artists have, she has her own unique style that she breathes into her works of art, in this case gardens, while at the same time being very intuitive and sensitive to what I want and see in my vision. I wanted a backyard that gave me the feeling I was out in nature, somewhat wild and free flowing, a place I could go after work to relax and let all the cares of the day dissipate into my surroundings. I knew she was capable of so many different styles from what I saw in her portfolio, but gave me exactly what I had hoped for. With her fine garden service, she and her team now maintain, manage, and nurture my garden so that it grows into the vision she planted and I had hoped for. I couldn't be happier.
