We initially hired Flo's Gardens for a backyard clean-up— they did such a great job that we ended up hiring them for year-long maintenance. Florence, Cecilia, and her team beautifully transformed our outdoor space, and we couldn't be more thankful for them!
The Flo’s Gardens team is incredibly creative, developing beautiful oases all over Brooklyn. With a deep knowledge of horticulture and the environment, they are responsible and responsive, and their pricing is very reasonable They also keep their clients forever, an excellent sign!
Flo's Gardens has a beautiful aesthetic and they are wonderful people, so easy to work with! We are incredibly happy with them. Definitely give them a call for your next project, you won't regret it.
What a rewarding experience. The entire team from Flo's Gardens impressed me, from the thoughtful planning discussions on the front end to the care, attention-to-detail and results of the landscaping on the back end. I'm really enjoying my Brooklyn backyard garden! I found Flo's Gardens to be responsive, patient and a joy to have as a partner.
We hired Flo's Gardens after walking down Garden Place (one of the prettiest blocks in Brooklyn) and seeing their work. We were inspired to have them design and install plantings and landscape for our town house. They made all the difference. Flo, Cecilia, and their team couldn't be nicer or more on point with their offering. They knew exactly what we wanted and how we wanted it to look. Clean, seasonal, not overdone. We have even had them come back to do a special Holiday presentation out front, and we plan to continue working with them for years to come. They are communicative, responsive, on time, clean with their work, and respectful. We have two young girls, and they were super quiet during nap times and saved the loud work for awake times even though it was inconvenient for their schedule. What more can you ask for in New York?!
I have owned a brownstone for 39 years. For the first 35 or so, I (happily) did all my own gardening, then got some help from a gardener friend. I've used Florence's Gardens for a few years now. Every year I'm more blown away than the previous year by the glorious garden they have fashioned for me. They are great to work with -- responsive, knowledgeable, tasteful, prompt and precise about everything they do. Whatever I suggest, they do with great aplomb. For example, a few years ago they planted a crepe myrtle in the corner. Now I have a beautiful tree with 100 blooms that span August and September to enjoy. The garden they fashioned for me brings me great joy.
The Best of the best! Florence and Cecilia have re-designed our garden and transformed it into a peaceful heaven. They are thoughtful, caring, creative, responsive, get their hands dirty and are just an absolute delight to work with. They have been caring for the garden since its inception and very knowledgeable about city gardening. As an added bonus, they are completely reliable and professional. Gregory.
My wife and I hired Flo's Gardens last year to oversee the complete redesign of our brownstone garden, including demolition, hardscaping, irrigation, new fence and planters, lighting, and the planting of new trees, flowers and a vegetable garden. Florence and Cecilia have been an absolute pleasure to work with. They have great design sense and deliver work on time and within budget. We have also really appreciated their diligent follow-up after the project was complete. Thanks to Florence and Cecilia, our garden is a beautiful refuge that we enjoy year round (but of course especially in the warmer months). We look forward to continuing to work with them to maintain the beauty of the garden for years to come.
They do a fantastic job at every level. From a spring and fall clean up, to an upgrade, or a full garden design and installation. Beautiful work!
Florence and Cecile are such a pleasure to work with. They are super responsive and professional and have great taste. They do beautiful work and take everything off your hands. You can just rely on them to get the job done. I highly recommend working with them.
I had a very negative experience working with Florence & Cecilia at Flos Gardens when I inquired about maintenance for my rooftop garden. I highly recommend you consider other options as they quickly became unresponsive, then rude. Before meeting with Cecilia, I sent an email with our address and a full schematic of our property. She visited and provided an estimate for $3k annually (5 visits). When I asked some follow up questions, she was initially unresponsive, and then responded very rudely and suggested she had told me previously she would not serve my area now or in the future. This experience was extremely frustrating as I provided our address, spent time away from work to be home to meet Cecilia, and she never mentioned that my location was an issue. If it was an issue, why schedule a visit, review the site, and write up a formal estimate? Overall Id caution anyone considering Flos Gardens as they are unprofessional, rude, slow to respond, and frankly very expensive for what they offer compared to competitors in the area.
Season after season our window boxes are nothing short of lush, living art installations. Florence and her team are supremely talented! Best in Brooklyn.
Thanks to these ladies, our back yard is a mini-paradise in the midst of Brooklyn. They helped us create a concept working with what was there, got the soil in top form, and chose only the most tasteful and beautiful plantings. Now in its second season, our garden is magnificent. They also do the best seasonal window boxes, and can connect clients with a stone mason, irrigation company, and arborist. They are always professional and pleasant to work with. We highly recommend them!
Florence and Cecilia are the most thorough and attentive gardeners and landscape architects. They have seen our projects through each stage and detail, from window boxes in our kids treehouse to an entire rooftop garden. F & C have a bevy of resources including carpenters, contractors, and irrigation specialists. We recommend them whole-heartedly and continue to be impressed by their kind, professional, and creative dispositions. We cannot say enough positive things.
Flo and Cecilia are brilliant! They transform my window boxes every season and the work is breathtaking! Ive had strangers, friends and neighbors all ask me who does my gardening because it always looks so nice...i happily refer them to Flos Gardens (and im a tough critic)...they are the very best...professional, creative and always very attentive to detail.
Spectacular! Florence and Cecelia have transformed the front patio for my new shop (307 Henry St) into a lush oasis. They have such great taste, and much knowledge about what works in the brownstone environment... they gave me just what I asked for and more, just beautiful. Many Thanks! rosanne
Upon first meeting Florence and Cecilia my wife and I were swept away. I think initially it had to do with the fact that simply hearing them speak transported us to the south of France, a place where everything looks and smells wonderful. As we began to work together, we were subsequently sold on their professionalism - its so refreshing to meet with service providers that are punctual, thoughtful and do exactly what they say they will when they say they will. We have completed one project with them so far, and have another one planned. Thank you both so much for your efforts in our garden, and we look forward to many years of collaboration!
