Californias Own Native Landscape

a) sloppy workmanship, sprinkler system finally had to be repaired by another company after they flubbed it 3 times. Technician from that company pointed out numerous problems with the original install.

b) no thought to drainage, first cut at install left my patio a lake

c) poor choice of plants, deciduous trees shedding leaves onto mulch is impossible to maintain. Many of the plants died as they weren't able to take the south facing sun.

d) poor support and refusal to do warranty plant replacement. He wouldn't come out to replace all the dead plants 2 months into their 1 year warranty. The supposed periodic maintenance (which I understood had associated costs) never materialized. Calls were ignored and finally I realized they simply didn't want my business.

e) generally poor design, the front yard from the start looked like a collection of weeds and it only got worse. I had to completely redo one section.

This did occur over a period of 2-4 years ago. Perhaps they've gotten better since then. If you don't have more than 50K to spend don't bother with these guys, they'll treat you like garbage.
