What happens after the beds have been filled and planted?
We will ensure that your plants are alive and thriving for the first 30 days. Then it is the responsibility of the gardener to maintain their plants.

If you’d like to be COMPLETELY hands off, we do offer weekly and bi-weekly maintenance services.
