Artistree Landscape Maintenance & Design

Great up front conversations, meetings and people… that’s until they were paid in full (many many thousands of dollars).
Horrible follow thru and run around once the plants and lighting was installed.
It became obvious once everything was in that they had used their prior knowledge and expertise to take advantage to maximize their profits by providing the bare minimum needed to get by on the plans but not in real life. Irrigation system was cheap and lighting was very inadequate.
Nobody at the company wanted to deal with any of it although it was very obvious. The actual workers (with no financial gain to be had) who came later, once I agreed to pay even more, were very surprised that certain lighting fixtures and bulbs had been used in various locations and confirmed that they were totally wrong for the purpose etc.
The key question with any such service is: «would you recommend them?» And my answer would be: «never!»

We spent many thousands of dollars using Artistree Landscape Design. Almost EVERY plant and tree that they installed died within three years, many within 18 months. The problem is that our soil is solid compressed sand when you dig 8 – 10 inches down. They planted all plants and trees with an absolute minimum of effort and digging. Never taking the time or effort to plant them in a larger hole or using good soil around the root ball. The plants never had a chance. The roots would spread out just below the ground level and get blown over in the wind or die due to the lack of depth and nutrition source.
I would NEVER recommend them to anyone. And, they don’t stand behind their work. Different people with no idea as to why everything died within three years or less.
