Jean Marsh Design

The most beautiful design. Our back yard is like a park with paths and meeting areas. We have CA native drought tolerant plants. Everything is thriving and beginning to bloom. As a feature of the design we have 5 large raised vegetable Trugs surrounding an eating area under a trellise that will soon be covered with grape vines. We have a large canopy with wisteria that will soon cover the canopy. A centralized play house for the grandkids and big boulders for them to climb on. The front yard is a dry creek bed, CA drought tolerant plants, beautiful blue water feature and large vases with a nice seating area. It is a beautiful well thought out design. We love it and could not recommend her more!! The water savings is nice too!!

I hired Jean Marsh Design to draw up a landscaping design which was to include a pool for my barren backyard. Jean came out to my home, asked pertinent questions about the things I wanted, took measurements and provided me with 2 different plans. I chose the plan I liked, tweaked the plan, went to the nursery to show my likes and dislikes about different varieties of plantings. She spoke to the pool company owner about the things I wanted for the pool. He contacted me and made arrangements to get started on the pool. We are currently working on the pool which should be complete in about 5 more weeks. Jean's landscaping professionals should be coming out to put in the landscaping when the pool is finished. I can't wait to see the results. I have every confidence in Jean and have been so pleased that she is there for me anytime I may have questions. What can I say other than she's a true professional with a vast knowledge. I have pictures and will post a few as soon as I can.

Jean helped determine the design of my front and back yard with focus in the back. She helped me begin to think of the spaces as another room of my home and gave me suggestions on plants to utilize, as well as an idea of how to pound through the cost of the project. The installation was extremely helpful. Jean knows her staff and made me feel confident in moving forward.

Jean has given a couple of free seminars on water wise landscaping in our Ethan Allen design center in Corona. Her ideas are interesting and provide wonderful education for the do it your self gardener. Her knowledge just flowed and everyone who attended gave her rave reviews. She even purchase some lovely Ethan Allen furniture for her mother.

Jean did the landscape design on our home many years ago, and I was tickled to see her mentioned on this site. The project included a half acre of landscaped yard and large deck. We didn't know how we could afford a professional doing the job, Jean worked within our budget, with us putting in some 'sweat equity' and finished with a beautiful, colorful, water wise space. Plants have come and gone over the years, but the good 'bones' remain and we still appreciate her vision.

Jean designed our front and back drought tolerant landscaping. It is lively and full of wonderful colour all year long. Jean was able to create our love of vibrant colors into the perfect planting. She weaves beauty.

very nice designer, she has some great ideas. wants a water wise garden. great ideas about what type of plants to use and what nursery to purchase them from. I would highly recommend her because of her talent

I hired Jean after watching her own yard evolve over the years. She is very good at listening to your interests and ideas and incorporating them into the design. I wanted a landscape that was water-wise, grass-free, mostly native, yet still allowed entertaining, vegetable growing, and flowers. She managed to incorporate all of my wishes and ideas into an amazing design that still fell within a limited budget. All the comments from the neighbors and our friends have been extremely enthusiastic. The result is a low maintenance, user friendly garden that bursts with color and further possibilities as the mood strikes. I love her work!!!

Our front yard is long and narrow. Ms Marsh provided detailed design drawings and recommendations that fit us to a "T". She helped during plant selection by accompanying me to the local nurseries to find specific plants. She also gave enough direction that I could complete the greenscape work on my own while contracting out the hardscape. The area is now a riot of colors instead of green turf. We love it! Excellent designer with many years of practical, relevant experience.

I worked with Jean twenty five years ago when we designed my landscape for the first time with a lot of grass for young children and dogs to play on.The children have grown up the dogs come and go but the maintenance and water bills have grown.I was thrilled to find Jean still in the business and intrested in turning my thirsty landscape into a drought and low maintenance area.The task is on going ,Jean has designed a yard we will soon install under her watchfull eye.Jean is easy to talk with always available and eager to please. I look foward to completing the design it going to look great.
