Absolutely beautiful. This is the 3rd landscaping project Naturescapes has done for us and we are very pleased. John and his team are artists with landscaping plants in our environment which most other landscapers would not be interested in as it is a challenge being in the woods. Very professional and we would highly recommend John and his team. > Nancy and Doug **★★★★★ — Meghan Walsh, Sept. 2025** > After many years of unsuccessfully trying to make my front shrubs look decent, I realized I needed to invest in a professional. I called Naturescapes and boy, did they deliver! When John Fridy came to meet in person and take a look at my front beds, I explained that I envisioned a pollinator destination that would grow into a lush garden in the years to come. John understood exactly what I was looking for, made an individualized plan, and returned - in person - with pictures of the plants he envisioned throughout my front walk. These included plants that would provide unique interest in the design process, were deer resistant, and would ensure something was in bloom throughout the spring and summer seasons. A few weeks later, he and his team of polite, careful, and professional individuals removed the existing shrubs and placed new shrubs and perennials, using healthy soils and mulch to ensure our new plants would thrive. The butterflies and birds are now all over my front yard! John is going to return in late fall to plant bulbs and is also coming back in the spring to make sure everything is growing beautifully and incorporate annuals. I could not be happier that I reached out to John and the Naturescapes team when I did. My only regret is that I didn't call them sooner. Call John and the Naturescapes team! You will be so glad you did. **★★★★★ — Kel Wieder, June 2024** > Wow! That's the best word to describe how my property has been transformed by the Naturescapes crew! Ancient "hedge" of boxwood and multiflora rose with rotting picket fence is now a gorgeous native plant meadow. John was great to work with from start to finish. And kudos to Kevin and the crew who did the work! Nice to see people working hard and with a passion for what they do. **★★★★★ — HU-467935507, Nov. 2022** > John and his team did an amazing job on our property, which was not an easy one to work on being sloped and with a creek. We are so happy with how everything has turned out that we are already planning to add to the project in the Spring! We especially love that most of the plantings are native and low maintenance!!! **★★★★★ — HU-654952033, Aug. 2021** > If you are needing a landscaping project, please call John at Naturescapes, your one-stop shop for quality design/build landscaping. John listened to what we wanted, and then his professional team transformed our backyard. It was overgrown and haphazard, and in less than three days it turned into our sanctuary. I also liked that the team worked so well together and shared a supportive comradery. John hires the right people and nurtures them as well as the gardens he creates. It also shows in the equipment; trucks and bobcats are well maintained. **Comment from Naturescapes Landscape Specialists, Ltd:** > We really appreciate your review, thank you! We always love the return of a good day's (or in this case 3 days) work! It looks beautiful! **★★★★★ — M L, July 2020** > Fantastic work--professionally done from start to finish, friendly crew and absolutely beautiful--the immediate neighbors and even people driving and walking through the neighborhood are consistently stopping to say how beautiful the plants and landscaping look and how much they appreciate it (I am on a street that leads to a walking trail). And even better, the birds, bees, butterflies (and other pollinators) seem to be having a GREAT time--even the deer are keeping their appetites in check (with a little assistance from Deer Scram) because John selected plants less appealing to the deer. Naturescapes handled the size and shape of my property with attention to detail, brought the color choices of flowers I requested (and suggested some complimentary flowers, plants and trees too--it smells great when everything is blooming), and did an all around great job. It's filling in beautifully. HIGHLY recommend Naturescapes! **Comment from Naturescapes Landscape Specialists, Ltd:** > Thank you for this wonderful review! > > My crew & I enjoyed working on your property. The deer are always tricky, but I'm happy we could come up with a plan to keep them from destroying your plants. We're excited to see how the plants continue to grow. > > Sincerely, > John H. Fridy, Owner **★★★★★ — John Henebry, July 2020** > John and Naturescapes did an awesome job at our home. He reworked existing spaces that were at our home when we purchased it and had been neglected for sometime. He also created new spaces for us. He placed native plants that would require minimal care, yet make our yard and home a place for our family to enjoy spending quality time together. **Comment from Naturescapes Landscape Specialists, Ltd:** > Dear John (and family), > Thank you for your positive review. My crew and I enjoyed revamping your landscape while creating year round interest for all. > Sincerely, > John H. Fridy, Owner **★★★★★ — Michael Ward, Sept. 2019** > John and his crew were amazing! John came to us with many wonderful ideas for landscaping. He is truly an artist! We would recommend him to everyone! Came and finished job before deadline! **Comment from Naturescapes Landscape Specialists, Ltd:** > Thank you for the review, Michael! John truly enjoys the work he does & we're happy we could finish the project earlier than expected. **★★★★★ — Elena French, June 2018** > John and the crew did an amazing job with my space. The previous owners' landscaping was boring, one-dimensional and simply a mess, and although I had no idea what I wanted, John took the time to ask a lot of questions, show lots of pictures, and put in place the perfect no-hassle, beautiful trees and plants that now make my home look special all the way from the street. Lighting too! I couldn't have asked for more! **Comment from Naturescapes Landscape Specialists, Ltd:** > Thank you very much! > John loves what he does and we really appreciate your feedback. **★★★★★ — Michael Precopio, Sept. 2017** > I am happy to recommend Naturescapes. I view John and his team as a "Landscape Solutions". John worked with me from design and installation to helping with watering to be sure my landscaping project is successful. My experience is that John and his team are professional and kept to the schedule as promised. I can easily give them my highest rating. **★★★★★ — Mary Wojnowski, Aug. 2017** > John and his team did a wonderful job transforming our overgrown, uninspired foundation beds. In addition, he added steps down our front bank to our rear yard. John gave me a detailed proposal and delivered as promised. I highly recommend Naturescapes! ## Selected projects - [A Natural Flagstone Patio Transformation in Downingtown](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/a-natural-flagstone-patio-transformation-in-downingtown-pj-vj~7837990) - Location: Downingtown, PA - Photos: 4 - [A Fresh, Vibrant Front Yard Uplift](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/a-fresh-vibrant-front-yard-uplift-pj-vj~7809559) - Location: West Chester, PA - Photos: 4 - [A Natural Woodland Edge Refresh in Wayne](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/a-natural-woodland-edge-refresh-in-wayne-pj-vj~7784484) - Location: Wayne, PA - Photos: 4 - [Rebuilding a Peaceful Pond Oasis for Media Residents](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/rebuilding-a-peaceful-pond-oasis-for-media-residents-pj-vj~7728601) - Location: Media, PA - Photos: 2 - [Malvern Front Porch](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/malvern-front-porch-pj-vj~7718812) - Location: Malvern, PA - Photos: 3 - [Thoughtful Planting Brings Natural Beauty to a Malvern Corner Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/thoughtful-planting-brings-natural-beauty-to-a-malvern-corner-home-pj-vj~7695710) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Creating a Natural Landscape Along Driveway in Berwyn](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/creating-a-natural-landscape-along-driveway-in-berwyn-pj-vj~7526853) - Location: Berwyn, PA - Photos: 2 - Description: The Naturescapes team was able to bring tranquility to this Berwyn neighborhood by adding a few trees and shrubs.

After putting down several inches of crushed stone and screenings, we began assembling the custom flagstone patio.
