When our massive and productive avocado tree died we searched for a professional to help us transform our backyard and our outdoor patio. We chose Nancy Knapp because we appreciate how well she listens and incorporates our wishes with her professional judgement in planning. She describes our plan as a drought tolerant “woodland garden.” It is filled with grasses and flowering plants, as well as a California Sycamore tree, a couple of moderately sized pines, and a small Japanese Maple. It attracts lots of birds and insects, including butterflies, hummingbirds , and honey bees. The rain gutters feed into a dry river bed that she designed. > > We love Nancy’s creative thinking. She is thoughtful and honest in suggesting suitable plants as well as incorporating some of our existing plants, to create this small sanctuary that is enjoyed by all. Communication is essential for us and Nancy always responded in a timely way to our phone calls, emails, or texts. She is very friendly, thoughtful, and understanding. She met the timelines that we set out for each stage of the construction. Nancy works well with her crew. They are respectful and careful working around non-garden areas. She leads a team of kind and pleasant workers. > > We highly recommend Nancy Knapp and Weeds for beautifully planned landscaping. ### All 21 reviews **★★★★★ — Ari, Dec. 2023** > Nancy and her team did a great job landscaping my backyard. She set up both in ground and potted plants, integrated a hot tub into the design, and installed vines above the back fence. It was easy to make decisions together as Nancy had helpful informed opinions from past experience. I'd definitely recommend reaching out for your landscaping project! **★★★★★ — Jeff, Dec. 2023** > Nancy created an absolute oasis for us in our front and back yards. Her ideas were very creative, focused on sustainability and took into account our personal preferences. The work was done quickly and professionally and now all our neighbors stop us to let us know how much they love our yard! **★★★★★ — A S, Oct. 2022** > Nancy and her team recently completed a full landscape, irrigation and lighting redesign at our home. She was responsive, present and a pleasure to partner with. Nancy worked closely with us to come up with a design that included our requirements and preferred aesthetic while merging it with her own ideas, vision and knowledge of different types of plants. We are very happy with the result and have gotten many positive comments from neighbors on both the outcome of our project and Nancy's work ethic. It was also really nice that over the course of our project, Nancy became a friend of our family. Our 2 year-old would be excited to see Nancy when she came to visit, she would bring him little gifts and she even came to the first house party (a birthday party for our other little one) we had when the project was nearing completion. > > The most important question to ask someone about their contractor is: Would you hire them again? For us, when it comes to Weeds, the answer is Yes! **★★★★★ — Deborah Rothman, Oct. 2021** > I had a fabulous experience with Weeds, and Nancy and her crew in particular. I first worked with her about a year ago on a small BACKYARD project. I had met with a handful of other landscape experts to fix a challenge brought about by the installation of new, larger sliding wood doors facing the backyard. As I visualized other people's proposals, some of which were quite expensive and went far beyond what I explained about the scope, I just couldn't pull the trigger. Then I met with Nancy. She instantly "got" the challenge and came up with the perfect budget-friendly, elegant solution. Besides reassuring me that I needn't worry because she and her crew have a lot of experience, she also said that she didn't want to leave a project if the client wasn't completely satisfied. Well, I WAS, so I hired her to do the FRONT YARD AND PARKWAY, a much bigger job. > Besides coming up with a great landscaping plan that worked with my budget, she offered to help me get a DWP rebate on the whole project, which she did, and which I got, and it was epic! Now my neighbors keep telling me how much they appreciate Nancy's landscaping when they walk around the neighborhood. > I found Nancy a dream to work with. But, guys, beware: she IS a woman, and if you have a history of having problems working with talented, confident women, you should probably save yourself and Nancy a lot of grief--find someone else, and good luck with that. **★★★★★ — Blondin Architecture + Design, Sept. 2021** > Project description: complete removal of all lawn/grass in front & back yard with install of drip irrigation, construction of pergola shade feature, site lighting, and drought tolerant planting. Project duration: about 8 weeks +/-. > > My wife and I had a pretty good idea of what we wanted and how we wanted our spaces laid out but it was so helpful having Nancy to work with to bounce ideas off of and think things though in ways we hadn't before. She was incredibly helpful in working within our budget and finding ways to save us money whenever possible - including letting us do the turf removal and some of the site prep prior to her team beginning their work. I have a very critical eye when it comes to detail work and not only did Nancy and her team strive to make sure everything was well thought out, when unforeseen issues / conditions did arise, we were able to work together to explore different alternatives until we came up with what we all thought was the best solution. This is all to say that whether you want to be highly involved in the design and implementation process or let the Weeds crew handle everything, you can be assured that the effort put in and the quality of the final product will be top of the line. Highly recommend. **★★★★★ — Stage to Sell \| Los Angeles Home Staging, June 2021** > Nancy and her crew at Weeds were absolutely top notch from start to finish! Nancy designed and created a backyard oasis out of a weedy pit and was able to fit a huge hot tub, fire pit with benches, a 9 foot kitchen island and gardening beds all in what formerly seemed like a really small yard. It saved us during Covid to have an outdoor living/dining room and kitchen that we could safely enjoy with the grandparents for holiday barbecues and get togethers. It also gave us an amazing garden that we have loved tending and using to grow our own food during this stressful time. Nancy also turned our dirt front yard (which had been a neighborhood eyesore for years) into a gorgeous landscape that everyone now comments on as they walk past our home. Nancy and her crew are extremely knowledgeable, communicative, and fantastic to work with. You will NOT regret your decision to hire Weeds to create your own outdoor oasis! **Comment from Weeds Garden Design Build LLC:** > Hey Annie - thanks so much! I'm so happy you and your family are enjoying your new front and back gardens, and I'm very proud of how you guys are taking care of it - especially your amazing veggie gardens ;-) As you know I'm always around if you have questions! **★★★★★ — quirina buchwald, Nov. 2020** > Nancy and her crew were so fantastic!!! We've done a number of landscaping projects, big and small, and really loved working with them. Nancy was so methodic, creative, knowledgeable and professional. She listened to what we wanted, which was a long list. She gave us a beautiful and functional outdoor space. We spend a lot of time entertaining and cooking outdoors, but we also wanted quiet, meditative garden areas, too. Our garden had to have a mix of formal and casual garden design, and we especially wanted a garden that was very productive of fruit. She addressed all that we wanted while still keeping our budget within range. > > What a lot of people don't think about when they are doing big projects is the guys that will be coming to their home everyday. Her guys were hard working and so respectful, leaving our space clean and orderly. We really appreciated their professionalism. Thank you, > > Nancy is really an artistic landscaper. She created a beautiful space for us, full of color, scents and texture. Her business partner, Eric, is a gem and full of knowledge. We had complete confidence that we were in good hands. **Comment from Weeds Garden Design Build LLC:** > Thanks so much Quirina - you and Randy are just the best clients ever - I actually miss you guys... I always say the nicest people have nicest gardens!! **★★★★★ — Hillary Vari, Dec. 2019** > We were very happy with Nancy and her team. They are completely competent and easy to get along with. The entire project (hardscape, landscape, irrigation and lighting) went smoothly and 6 months later everything looks and works great. We already gave her contact info to 3 neighbors who watched her team work and thought, like us, that they did a great job. **Comment from Weeds Garden Design Build LLC:** > Thank you Hillary - you and your family were just a pleasure to work with & I’m so glad you chose us for the project! Enjoy that lovely garden **★★★★★ — Irene K., Oct. 2019** > Nancy and her team were wonderful to work with. She was highly recommended by our neighbor, whose garden still looks beautiful after many years. She understood our needs and made careful considerations. Great team, very professional, work done on time and on budget. **Comment from Weeds Garden Design Build LLC:** > Thanks so much! It was a pleasure to work for you guys ;-) **★★★★★ — Brian Morel, Sept. 2019** > I really enjoyed working with Nancy. She has an artistic eye but was also open to input from me even if my creative vision or landscaping needs weren't quite aligned with hers. But in the end I appreciated the collaboration her suggestions and the end result. I think she was reasonably priced and I never felt like she viewed me as just a source of income, instead I felt she has a true passion for what she does. There were a couple hiccups along the way with her subcontractors that arguably could have been avoided with better project management, and if I were really anal I may have docker her a star, but in the overall scope of things I believe she always came through and I am satisfied with the end result. The project also took longer than expected but that was largely driven by an unexpected drainage issue that we encountered in partially submerging my hot tub. She engineered a good solution and even helped to cover the costs. So all in all, I'm satisfied and would recommend Nancy and crew (shout-out to her lighting guy Eric) for your landscaping needs. **Comment from Weeds Garden Design Build LLC:** > Hi Brian, > > Thanks so much for your kind words - and patience! It was a pleasure to build your garden and it makes me so happy that you guys are enjoying! As always, let me know if you need anything ;-) > And of course thank you for the shout-out to Eric - I couldn't do it without him! > > Best, > Nancy **★★★★★ — Michael Johns, April 2019** > Nancy and Weeds Garden Design did a fabulous job designing and installing our urban garden. Professional, flexible, prompt, creative, and thorough in all respects. **Comment from Weeds Garden Design Build LLC:** > Aww thank you guys - it's a pleasure to work for such a nice couple! **★★★★★ — Sarah Tamor, Nov. 2017** > We are so happy with the work that Nancy and the Weeds crew did for us! They have transformed our garden! Every day, neighbors, strangers, dog-walkers and baby-strollers pass by and remark on how beautiful our garden is. The entire Weeds crew impressed us with their professionalism, work ethic, and cheerful demeanor. We had a tight timeline, and Nancy and her team delivered: done! on time! complete! And Nancy has her plant materials down cold. We came to trust her encyclopedic knowledge of suitable plantings for each environment. She and her team utilized the most water-efficient strategies available, which was also very important to us. We are truly delighted with our experience of working with the Weeds team, and recommend their work without reservation. **Comment from Weeds Garden Design Build LLC:** > Aww thanks you guys - I really appreciate it. It was a pleasure working with you too! I can't wait til everything grows in a bit (except the clover!) and I can get some amazing pics for Houzz.. **★★★★★ — Celeste Marin, Oct. 2017** > My husband and I wanted to update our garden. We interviewed many landscape companies before settling on Nancy at Weeds. We loved her design concepts and the fact she had her own crew including a lighting and irrigation expert. The fire pit is truly a piece of art. Our plants are flourishing and our garden becomes more lovely every month. We are thrilled with Nancy and all her crew. **Comment from Weeds Garden Design Build LLC:** > Thank you so much Celeste - you are Robert are lovely people to work with and I truly enjoyed giving you back your garden! **★★★★★ — ay703, Oct. 2016** > After spending at least 2 years trying to decide what to do with the front of our house and the garden, we finally did it. We thank Nancy from Weeds for helping us make this happen. > She worked with us to arrive at a plan that was to our liking, within our budget, and drought tolerant. In fact, if you are looking for someone who cares about our environment, Nancy is the person to contact. Not only is she a pleasure to work with, but her crew of workers are the best. They were punctual, efficient, and showed great respect for our property. > We greatly underestimated the scope of work needed to be done to make our house go from an ugly duckling to a beautiful work of art. How lucky for us that we found Nancy and Weeds. I love to stand out front and admire our new look and to hear all the positive comments from neighbors as they admire it too. > Nancy also helped us complete our new look by recommending a very good contractor > who became part of the team. **★★★★★ — blakebobit, March 2015** > Nancy designed a very interesting landscape for our new home. She listened to all of our needs and was able to keep it in our budget range. Additionally the landscape matches the aesthetic of the home and makes use of many water saving features that will help keep upkeep costs low for years to come. **★★★★★ — kellerja, Oct. 2014** > As I look out on my new, environmentally-friendly, park-like yard, I am so pleased that I chose Nancy to orchestrate my project! Seriously, I can't recommend Weeds Garden & Interior Design enough. Nancy was patient (a must with me, I'm afraid), creative and pretty darn thorough. We redid our front and back yards, and she was able to help me get a generous credit from DWP for pulling out our grass, too! While not inexpensive, we did get a number of bids from other landscapers before choosing Weeds. Her bid was competitive, and most importantly, comprehensive, so there were relatively few surprises. I initially found her on Houzz, so kudos to this site as well. **★★★★★ — suewolf1, Dec. 2013** > Why you should hire Nancy Knapp immediately: > I found Nancy Knapp when I saw her "WEEDS" sign posted on a front yard that I admired. I set up a meeting with her and instantly loved her. She is super creative, always has a smile, is full of enthusiasm, and LISTENS. She spent several hours with me on our first meeting looking and taking all my thoughts and desires into consideration. She had many great ideas right away. She went away and came back a week later with an amazing set of sketches, plant ideas, photographs, and plans. She did all this before I even officially hired her. I'd told her to create low, medium, and high budget ideas. We chose the middle range but honestly, I felt as though its worth a zillion bucks it looks that AMAZING!!! She was totally on budget. She's been back many times without charging me to make sure that everything is thriving and looks great. This is the king of passion Nancy has. > Nancy is kind of magical in how she approaches design. I'd told her I'd just lost my parents (who were living with me at the end of their lives). I also told her I liked circles. She created this spexial design that had 3 partial circles and told me she'd had the idea from listening to me talk about how much I missed my parents. I was so touched by her creativity and her humanity that I took the leap of faith and hired her without asking for any references. > She exceeded all my expectations. She is also a forward thinker. She can be eco friendly if you wish for that. I had solar on my house and wanted to have a low-water, draught tolerant design. She was able to use my front yard as a blank canvas and managed to paint extreme beauty and peacefulness, with plants, flowers and hardscaping, that was cost effective and great for the planet. Even now, after the project has been completed for going on two years, Nancy and her team are always there if I need them for any garden related question, problem of concern I might have. > I can't say enough good things about Nancy Knapp and her company WEEDS. Sh's a true gem. **★★★★★ — mzarakas, Dec. 2013** > I hired Nancy to help me revamp my side yard and refresh by front yard. After a thorough discussion of the project, I decided to do what I should have done several years ago - instead of doing a bunch of small fixes, look at the yard as a complete project and do it right. I am very glad I did. > Nancy was great! > Prompt, considerate, professional and went above and beyond to ensure I was happy with the results. The yard now functions properly - both from an irrigation standpoint as well as a wholistic landscaping "statement". > I highly recommend Nancy and her crew! **★★★★★ — carolinax, Oct. 2013** > I was lucky to find landscape designer and contractor, Nancy with Weeds- the force behind my new landscaping! She is an extremely skilled and capable professional who interpreted my desires perfectly and is a delight to work with. Highly creative, she designed pathways,plant groupings, a stone patio and water feature with aplomb. The fountain is beautiful as well as restful, the automated drip irrigation works perfectly, and I don't miss the grass one bit. Since her crew comes in on a monthly basis to keep everything in order,almost all the toiling I do is to clip herbs in the herb garden she planted! Having Nancy and her able team on board to create my garden was a truly positive experience **★★★★★ — Christopher Farah, July 2013** > I just bought my first house - a definite fixer-upper - and quickly learned how important it is to find someone you can really trust with working on an intimate, personal space like your home. Nancy is that someone. > > I actually found her on Yelp and thought, "Well, she has five stars... let's see why." She deserves every single one of them. She was fantastic at working with me on the budget, she finished everything exactly when she said she would, and responded to any questions I emailed within hours of me sending them - and I sent A LOT of emails. (Yep, I can be high-maintenance.) She knows plants and taught me a heck of a lot of stuff I didn't know, and she also did a really good job of listening to my own needs - something almost no other contractors have done. The couple times things haven't been quite right - for example when a bougainvillea died after a week - she came back and fixed it immediately. > > Most important, though, the work she does is spectacular. My front and back yards were a mess of concrete and dead, old plants. That crap is all gone, and in its place is a gorgeous colorful garden with a quaint stone path that runs from one end to another. It's like something out of a fairytale, and I enjoy walking through it every single night when I get home from the office. > > At first I was thinking of trying to landscape this project myself - after all, just a few plants, right? But it's so, so much more complicated than that. Now that it's done, there's not a day goes by that I'm not thrilled I hired Nancy to make my gardening dreams come true. ## Selected projects - [Bedford Street, Los Angeles](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bedford-street-los-angeles-pj-vj~7355458) - Location: Los Angeles, CA - Photos: 15 - Description: This was a dried out weed strewn & concrete desert of a corner lot - including front, side and back gardens, with enormous parkways as well.
