John is truly an artist! We have a large, (about 50x20 ft) sloped front yard. One year ago it was hard soil and weeds. John transformed it into a hillside garden using California native shrubs, grasses, trees and wildflowers and used logs, stones and branches to create shapes, pathways and boundaries. He did a lot of work conditioning the soil. It was all worth it! The garden is really lovely and looks totally natural. It changes with the seasons as flowers self propagate.

John was extremely helpful through the entire process of redesigning our patio in Pacific Heights. He gave feedback on some of our initial ideas and was communicative and transparent on the design, purchasing of materials & shrubs / plants, and his timeline of work. John’s also very helpful in sharing his experience / advice on how to take care of our patio to newbies like us! Thanks and definitively would recommend.

John is personable, joyful and has a serious love of creating beautiful spaces -- big or small! Our job was several small areas in our very vertical SF home, and he brought energy and enthusiasm to the whole project. He was open to listening to what our family wanted and had a great kindness in pushing back on areas that he felt would be better served by a different approach with plantings. It was super fun to collaborate with him, and he really invites you to be part of the process. Thank you, John!

The owner of sfgardening, John G. is simply the best at garden design, beautiful work, including very skilled pruning of all types of trees and shrubs - in my garden roses and camellias were magically transformed. He is also quite personable!
