We had a wonderful experience with Mariposa! Very good at working through what we wanted (unusual plants, different areas of the yard with different heights), and we’re so excited to see how it grows in. We especially love the rock garden and how quickly it came together!!

We consulted with Gina to redesign our front and backyard in November 2023 and finalized our plans by the end of that year. Gina was such a pleasure to work with! She provided us with three initial concept designs, then worked with us to incorporate our favorite features and fit things closer to our budget.

We’ve been enjoying the garden for about five months now, and love to see the plants fill in and new wildflowers bloom! Lots of compliments from our neighbors. Overall enjoying the space and utilizing it more than before!

I love my courtyard and backyard gardens from Mariposa! They totally changed the space and made it into something special. I love the way they laid the stone paths and birds visit my gardens now. I admire their work from my desk. They were friendly and considerate through the process. Hard workers. You’ll be glad you hired them no matter what space you want to improve—big or small!

Below is before and after:

Mariposa's crew did a recent remodel of our back garden in Rockridge. We have been very pleased with the process (and outcome!) at all levels. The staff was attentive to our vision of the space and worked the design details carefully. The crew. handled all logistics well with a minimum of effort on our end. Everyone communicated well and made sure we were happy at each step. Some of the work was challenging, involving moving large stones and installing a fountain and rain garden. Mariposa handled all of this outstandingly well --with impressive technical expertise and aesthetic sensibility. The garden is gorgeous. Such a transformation!. Glad to have chosen this group.

Mariposa knows how to design and create a beautiful patio and garden area. We absolutely love ours with its lush, native plants, lovely stone work, and awesome fire pit. Mariposa’s design also helped solve our drainage problems, which were very difficult to deal with when we were getting heavy rain. Now, the water is all directed away from our house and we will rest easy at the next storm.

Mariposa Gardening gave me 3 different designs for all 4 sides of my yard. They just completed the first side. I am satisfied with the results. Their people are hardworking and enthusiastic. I am especially pleased with their commitment to environmentally and ecologically responsible gardening.

Mariposa Gardening stayed on budget, or notified of change orders right away. I’ve never seen people who work so hard. Questions were answered when I asked them - accommodations made without complaint when I needed the soil to not be on our roadway but in the driveway, due to neighborhood concerns. They were also very respectful or our property and cleaned up at the end of each day. Would highly recommend!!

Mariposa is no ordinary landscaping company. Their approach to design is highly environmentally conscious and includes uniquely innovative and thoughtful features not commonly seen in contemporary landscaping. Andrea Hurd and staff are meticulous and responsive every step of the way from design through installation and cleanup. Our amazing new garden is already filled with birds and bees, and we look forward to enjoying its beauty and distinctive qualities for years to come.
