The professionals have landscaping ideas that create a flow and consistency throughout, while keeping native plants in mind. We have used them for 10 years and recently last year signed a weekly weeding contract (for maintenance). I’ve never been happier. **Comment from GreenWeaver Landscapes:** > We really appreciate our long-term clients and love seeing gardens evolve over the years! Thank you for being such a loyal customer! **★★★★★ — HU-707028272, Sept. 2019** > We are very happy with our landscaping and appreciate Greenweaver's flexibility in managing requests for changes and accommodating requests in our landscaping plan over time and allowing us to do it in phases. **Comment from GreenWeaver Landscapes:** > Thank you for such a positive review! We are happy to accommodate phase-work to make projects manageable for our clients! **★★★★★ — Mary Cahill, May 2018** > I hired Greenweaver last November to do a particularly difficult landscaping project for me. I met them through my neighbor, who had a contract with them. Greenweaver’s gardener seemed very knowledgeable and competent, and so I described my project to him. He suggested I contact Greenweaver, and felt that they would be able to accomplish what I wanted. > He was right! My house is on a corner. The project was to totally re-landscape one street side of the lot. That involved removing decade’s old growth, re-grading the area and sowing lots and lots of grass seed. > Greenweaver worked on the project in November, and assured me that the grass seed would lie dormant over the winter and would germinate in the spring. I was dubious, but they were right. By May, the grass was growing beautifully and the side yard looks wonderful. > Greenweaver was everything I could have hoped for. They were professional, timely, and very knowledgeable. I recommend them highly, and look forward to a continuing relationship with them. **Comment from GreenWeaver Landscapes:** > Thank you so much for the kind words! We look forward to working on future projects with you! **★★★★★ — Nancy Grogan, Dec. 2017** > Responsive, punctual, informative. They listened carefully to our wants and limitations. Their work was neat, and they cleaned up after themselves. We love the result, and we are going to stay with GreenWeaver for long-term maintenance. **Comment from GreenWeaver Landscapes:** > Thank you so much for leaving us positive feedback! We look forward to continuing to garden on your property this year and in the future. **★★★★★ — Alycia, June 2017** > GreenWeaver Landscapes has managed our landscape projects for the past 4 years. Their knowledge of plants, creative garden design and excellent workmanship has kept our steep front hill looking spectacular. > In a course at Longwood Gardens taught by GreenWeaver's Jennifer Nichols and Lee Armillei, I learned so much about native plantings and garden design/sustainability, I know I am working with the best landscaping business. **Comment from GreenWeaver Landscapes:** > Thank you for your kind review. We're so happy that you learned a lot in the Landscape for Life class. It has been a pleasure working with you to incorporate those sustainable practices on your site! **★★★★★ — Tony Fernandes, Feb. 2017** > I first hired GreenWeaver Landscapes in 2013 to design and install a flower garden and I have been using them ever since. I have found them to be very reasonably priced, friendly and knowledgeable, professional and courteous, and I really appreciate their preference for using native plants. One of the other things I like about them is how well they clean up when they are finished. > > My favorite project is a rain garden that they installed on my property to solve a perennial flooding problem I had along my driveway. Even very small rains would inundate a large strip of my lawn along my driveway. With some very minor grading and rerouting of downspout piping into the rain garden, GreenWeaver diverted the flow into the rain garden, where it is stored and then seeps back into the ground. For all but the largest of storms, this rain garden has solved my flooding issue. I have attached 2 photos of this project, one soon after installation (you can see where the outlets from the downspouts enter the rain garden), and the second photo is the rain garden in full bloom. The project was under $9,000 which included the rerouting of downspouts and underground piping to the rain garden. Very reasonable. > > My second favorite project that GreenWeaver installed was a small native grass and wildflower meadow. This was a 3-year project (they needed to do a little bit each year to get the native grasses and wildflowers established), but now I am enjoying dozens of different species of wildflowers, and native grasses like Little Bluestem, Purpletop, Sideoats grama, and others. The meadow project has been particularly satisfying for me because at first, I could not recognize the 'good' plants from the 'bad' plants. But Greg and Jennifer have on multiple occasions walked through the meadow with me to 'teach' me what plants were native, and what plants were either non-native or invasive and should be controlled. With this knowledge, I will be able to improve the meadow each year by controlling invasive or non-native plants. > > GreenWeaver keeps to their schedule, and the quality of their workmanship is excellent. My original goal when I first called GreenWeaver was to convert my yard to a wildlife friendly place, where birds and butterflies would gravitate, and GreenWeaver has certainly accomplished this for me. Thanks guys. **Comment from GreenWeaver Landscapes:** > Thank you so much for the kind and thorough review. It has been a pleasure working with you over the last few years. Let's keep making your property a wildlife friendly environment! **★★★★★ — Amy Hersch, Feb. 2017** > The team at green weaver did a great job putting in permeable pavers in our front and back (philadelphia row home) they were very professional, friendly, and timely with the project. **Comment from GreenWeaver Landscapes:** > Thank you for the review and for sharing your photos! Your pup seems to be enjoying the puddle-free patio as well! **★★★★★ — Kapski Painting Inc., Feb. 2017** > Jen & Greg Nichols are a great team. I highly recommend them because they are true Craftspeople, have a terrific staff and come in on or under budget and on or ahead of deadline. Their design and execution are on point and they are willing and able to handle those little details that separate them from their competition. Five stars out of 5! **Comment from GreenWeaver Landscapes:** > Thank you for your kind review- we look forward to collaborating with you on future projects! **★★★★★ — Gregory Blewitt, Feb. 2017** > A few years ago, GreenWeaver created, from virtually nothing, a brand new side-yard garden of PA native plants, and last year created a new front yard to replace dead English ivy. In both instances, they had professional design presentations, selected plants I never heard of (not too hard) and were budget-conscious. The variety of colors and textures in the design were very creative and demonstrated both knowledge of what plants would work and creativity in the design. And they met my low-maintenance requirement! They also honored their guarantee, no questions asked. They are professional in every respect, so I am glad to recommend them. **Comment from GreenWeaver Landscapes:** > Thank you for the kind review! Your small side yard is still one of our favorite projects! **★★★★★ — Alexis Anderson, Feb. 2017** > Personable, knowledgeable, and professional--highly recommend! They do a wonderful job interpreting client intent and considering conditions for best results. As a landlord, I have hired GreenWeaver for multiple residential landscape projects. **Comment from GreenWeaver Landscapes:** > Thank you for your review. We look forward to future projects with you! ## Selected projects - [Haverford Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/haverford-residence-pj-vj~5327831) - Location: Haverford, PA - Photos: 14 - Description: This Main Line home has made major improvments to the house, hardscapes, and landscapes.
