Michelle is wonderful to work with. She knows plants that grow in this desert environment and how they will look when planted.
She worked with us on our project and presented a very nice design.

Have to admit that in my whole gardening life, I was totally stumped on how to create a lush entryway to my new/older home in Sun City, Las Vegas. My husband and I have created beautiful landscapes at many of our homes over the years. We have owned seven homes in the US and overseas. I did not want the succulents or the usual palm trees that are seen on the street here. I wanted something private, overgrown and unusual for my courtyard space as this home has been a true downsizing as well as a labor of love during the Covid pandemic. I think Michele understood this and helped me to create this, at least on paper, for now. I can see how it will grow over time, and how it will leave a lasting legacy to those who live in this wonderful house , long after I am gone. The design was accomplished with an eye to color, texture, fragrance and almost, I would say, a love for randomness and dreaming, which is my heart and soul. Thank-you Michele. You listened to my heart and I appreciate your soul. Carolyn and Mike

Comment from Perennial Garden Consultants:
Thank you for your heartfelt review! It's always a pleasure to work with people who get that their garden is an integral part of their home, and often a sort of extension of themselves. I had a great time working with you on your project, and I look forward to seeing you soon!

We wanted to work with Perennial Garden Consultants because, as first-time home owners, we are a bit clueless when it comes to landscaping. Our backyard has grass that has been neglected and causes our dog to break out in rashes (she's allergic). The yard needed to be redesigned to be more colorful, private, and easy to maintain. Michele was very attentive and addressed all of our concerns — from the comfort of our dog to accessibility concerns. The design she developed is beautiful and we can't wait to have it implemented!

Michele was great to work with. I wanted specific desert plants that would be great for pollinators, low water usage, have 4 season colors as well as provide some privacy from our neighbors. She worked our idea within our budget and delivered on everything we were hoping for. I'm a bit of detail oriented person and she was able to accommodate my specific details.

We were very impressed with Michele's landscape design for our front, back and side areas of our home. She was easy to talk to, easy to bounce opinions off. She was also the very first person to fully understand our style and to work and create something we can hopefully realize in our outdoor space. We would recommend her to anyone for her professionalism and her ability to deliver on promises, while also managing to keep us grounded and not too lofty with our ideas for the Las Vegas climate. We hope to work with her again and oversee the transformation of the space when we are able to begin the work. The finished design is beautiful and we treasure it.

We hired Michele to do the landscape design for our backyard. We moved from a very green city and wanted to create a backyard oasis that would reflect our love of the outdoors while still being sustainable in the desert climate. Michele has completed her design and we have received approval from our HOA to implement it, so that feels great. We have just begun the process of doing the actual work of installment, so this review does not reflect a fully finished product. However, I'm very happy with the design that Michele did for us and know I would not have been able to come up with anything close to this myself. The back and forth of designing the backyard did take some time, a bit longer than I expected although we did make changes along the way. Michele's process is all done by hand instead of a computer program, which is also different than I expected, so changes are not easily made if they are requested out of process. Michele has also been helpful in providing us with some more specific answers we need for our project and budget. I look forward to completing our project and seeing her drawing come to life!

Comment from Perennial Garden Consultants:
Thank you for your review! It was a pleasure working with you on your project. I'm afraid it did take longer than expected, thanks to COVID-19. Unfortunately, when schools closed after the second week of March, with my son home and child care unavailable, many people--myself included--found that work suddenly became more challenging, as I had communicated with you in an email around that time thanking you for your patience.
Being clear on expectations is a crucial part of providing excellent service, which is why I bring my portfolio of hand-drafted past work to each initial consultation. Although I am flattered that the quality of my work may have led you to believe the drawings I shared with you and your husband were created using Auto CAD, I thought I had clearly stated that my work is done manually, as it was also stated in the contract. Your feedback is appreciated as it helps me to improve my services, and going forward I will make it a point to communicate more effectively with clients to better meet their expectations!

Michelle's passion for horticulture and design make her an outstanding choice for anyone looking to upgrade their property .

I found Michelle, Perennial Gardens, in August 2019 when I was trying to find a landscape artist for my courtyard. I told her I wanted something with a Wow factor because it was the entrance to my home. Michelle came to my house, asked what I was looking for, took pictures, and made several suggestions. She then prepared a landscape design that astonished me – it was truly spectacular! Most of the plants in the design I had never heard of, much less seen in any landscape anywhere, (I grew up in Las Vegas) and yet they are all acclimated to the desert climate here. They are gorgeous colors with a variety of textures. To add to my good fortune, Michelle installed her design. She was meticulous in preparing the soil, placing the plants correctly, and then ensuring the irrigation would meet each plant’s need. She also stuck with the plan we agreed on, opting to wait for the specific plants, rather than substituting other plants into the design.
Michelle is a true landscape artist and incredibly knowledgeable about what will grow and flourish here. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a landscape design that is unique and exquisitely beautiful.

My landscape design has been completed and although it is not yet installed I am very excited about seeing it finalized. It is rare to find someone in the business of design who listens to all of your wants, needs and concerns and then incorporates them in the actual design. Michele did all of that and when she gave me the original proposal she even noted things I had forgotten I had mentioned. She is a great communicator and was available and responsive to all calls and emails.
The use of the houzz website meant I could see plant recommendations and I could also provide her with things I liked that she could then possibly incorporate in the design. Her knowledge of plants and their mature size meant that I will not be over planting and then butchering the same growing plants later to keep them small enough to fit the area. This also means I will spend less money on plants because .. guess what... they grow !
If you need a landscape designer, I recommend Michele highly. I will try to update with photos when the project is completed.

Michele from Perennial Garden Consultants was able to take a kernel of an idea I had about a Moorish Garden based on a TV show episode and run with it in a unique and creative manner in creating my backyard landscape design plan. Her extensive knowledge of regional flora will also ensure that my design is sustainable once it has been planted and can endure our hot desert climate. Michele works closely with you to achieve your vision, and her professionalism, creativity and organization make the process easy and fun. The practical touches such as the inclusion of detailed planting instructions, and the separate list of plants provided will also make it easy for me to execute the plan. I would highly recommend her work if you are interested in dramatically transforming your home landscape for a fair and reasonable fee.

Michele worked with us help a refresh for our backyard. She came up with a great plan that incorporated our vision and yet was precise, well though out and affordable. She was meticulous with communication and keeping us in the loop with the various stages in the design process. On conclusion, she gave us an amazing design document that we allows us to proceed with confidence. Highly recommend and we plan on having her back in the future for other landscaping design projects.

Michele was fantastic to work with. She understood what I wanted for the space and gave me a lot of options and suggestions, and was very flexible and knowledgeable when I had questions or thought of a different plant. The final design is exactly what I was looking for, and I can't wait to have it completed! I will be recommending her design services to anyone looking at updating their landscape.
