Julian recently completed some landscaping work for us on the front and side of our property. He was very courteous and extremely knowledgeable. He spent a good amount of time with us during the consultation and followed up with a great design and price! Julian and his team completed the work very quickly and we are very happy with the results!!

Julian has wonderful response time and does excellent work. Since he is a horticulturist, I learned so much about what was growing in my garden/yard and we were able to make much more informed decisions about what we want to keep/remove/replace. We will only be using Perennia for our landscaping and design.

I had a wonderful experience working with Julian. He was responsive, prompt, and knowledgeable about the types of plants that would grow well in our front and back yards. We worked together on the design aesthetic I envisioned and it came out even better than I thought it would because of his suggestions. Every tree, bush and plant is flourishing. I am so happy and recommend him highly!

After removing our in-ground oil tank, we had a big empty space to fill between the driveway and the house. Julian worked with us to fill it with beautiful, deer-resistant flowering shrubs and evergreens and to re-do a stone walkway. He and his crew did an outstanding job and we're very happy with the results!

Julian and his team did wonderful job at my house.
He came to my home and suggested plants and did job in very reasonably price.
My back yard looks great and can not imagine how beautiful they looks when they grow up In few years.
Thank you and look forward to work together again.
I highly recommend him and his team for your lawn and yard needs.
