We’d lived in our custom-built house for many years; however, due to prolonged family illnesses, we had not had time to put in landscaping. I had said numerous times, it would be sad if we didn’t landscape until we were ready to sell the place. And there we were, wanting to sell. I had heard Kirsten speak a year or so earlier, and she struck me as a no-nonsense professional, who knew what she was doing and had a lot of energy. When I found myself in a bind to get a landscape plan for the front yard done and installed, I contacted her. She had only a short window of time to work within, but she took us on. She came and talked with us about what we wanted, worked with the hardscape we had already installed and came up with a plan I really loved. She seemed to read my passions and envision what would work and be easy to care for. She provided the plants, which were very healthy and vigorous; placed them with a professional eye; and gave us instructions on how to plant them for best results. She also provided advice for the rest of the yard that would help us get the best price for our house. We planted, watered, and cared for the plants most of the summer. When we put our house on the market, the yard looked great. We got an offer within a week and for more than our asking price. Her landscaping and advice I believe really contributed. It certainly helped our frame of mind and our pride in our home, which I believe played a role. Thanks you, Kirsten! We’ll be in touch when we’re ready to spruce up the landscape at our new house.
