Default Need a plant person or gardener

We are looking for a person or service to maintain our plant beds - weeding, triming of bushes and other plants, tree trimming, cleaning out debri from the beds, monitor the sprinklers, etc. We envision a monthly service, some months more to do than others. We are flexible on how they would like to work out the cost/payments. Some initial clean up and possible plant replacement will be needed.

We have found that any of the typical lawn services do not pay good attention to that and won't do some of it. So we are looking to separate the lawn care from the plant bed care. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

We use David Shaw 352-208-3994. He was recommended to a friend of ours by word of mouth and we liked what we saw when he re-did her landscaping. He trimmed our bushes and trees carefully and beautifully, replaced mulch with stone, made recommendations for easy-care plants, advised us on a couple of new tree choices, and recently built short walls in place of the moldy curbing all around our landscape. He will maintain the plants (he dead-headed and trimmed our drift roses) and will fertilize, but is NOT licensed to spray pesticides. We have a lawn/shrub/termite contract with Deans, so I have asked them not to do any bush trimming (they hacked up everything before we got here in Sept), but they will do bed-weed control as well as pesticide spraying on the bushes. David is reasonable, and he's an excellent worker. If you contact him, tell him I sent you!

I should have also said Jim Sampiere will do the gardening separate from lawn care does not require you to have both done

I'd love to come out and give you an estimate. We offer routine shrub trimming, weeding, lawn care, and landscaping. We have the best reviews here on TOTV. Check them out for yourself with this link Choice Maintenance or just search "Choice Maintenance" in the search bar.

All of our services our separated between 3 crews so each different service has a crews full attention. We also have the same crews at your house each visit so any special requirements don't go overlooked by someone who isn't familiar with your property.

We also don't require a full package service so you can seperate which services you'd like us to provide. No yearly contract either.


Look forward to hopefully hearing from you,
