His attention to detail and meticulous work was apparent through every step of the process. He keep true to the budget and the timetable for the project. John has an obvious passion for his work, which is reflected in the end result. I would not hesitate to recommend Till Garden or have them work on another project at our home, if ever needed. **★★★★★ — annedenenno, Jan. 2016** > We have lived in our home for 25 years and needed to redo and freshen up our landscaping. We've used several landscape designers over the years but working with John at Till Gardens was by far the most satisfying and successful experience. John's choices of perennials, grasses and bulbs have matured into just the year-round landscape that we wanted, providing beautiful color, texture and form. And it significantly reduced our maintenance. We highly recommend Till Gardens for both design and installation. ## Selected projects - [Morristown Estate](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/morristown-estate-pj-vj~2384069) - Location: Morristown, NJ - Photos: 14 - [20th Century Estate House - Rye, NY](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/20th-century-estate-house-rye-ny-pj-vj~1515166) - Location: Rye, NY - Photos: 20 - Description: This one and a half acre garden juts into New York’s Long Island Sound.
