Customer Testimonials

- I’ve had numerous landcaping companies that have taken care of all the plants, shrubs and yard. Desiree Gardens is by far the best ever. She is attentive to detail & I love my yard. I could go on and on about how wonderful she is but you need to have her do your work!
- Buddy Moses - Our yard started out as not much and they have worked hard to make progress and work within our budget allowing my wife to pick the plants and trees and undercover that fits our style. Desiree Gardens was the only landscaper that would take on our project and they have done a wonderful job in making it look great and progressing on the yard without it looking under construction. The cost could have been more than we wanted to take on all at one time but we have had a great time building it and making it look nice. Our landscape is on a very steep hill so it is unique and has taken some creativity to get us where we wanted to be. Thank you so much for working on it and making our house have the personality that Karen really has become proud of. This year I cannot wait to see what you do and see the plants as they continue to bloom and fill out.
- Brett Wassell - Desiree has been my landscaper/gardener for the last several years. She has a vast knowledge of plants and knows which plants will thrive in which areas of my garden. She has a great eye for design and always meets my requirement of planting things that are easy for me to maintain. 😀 Also she’s very dependable and reasonably priced. I definitely recommend her!

Is my Garden Done? Learn about these necessary garden activities for December.
Well folks, we’ve had our first frost of the season. Hopefully any tender plants that you’ve not already brought inside were in a well protected micro-climate or were covered with frost cloth. With night-time temperatures regularly reaching into the 40s right now all of your true tropicals such as plumeria, bananas, and bougainvillea should be brought inside for the winter. But is your gardening season really done? Planting Trees and Woody Shrubs When your woody perennial shrubs and trees are dormant is the best time to plant them. That time of year is starting right now! During the summer, trees spend their time gathering energy from the sun and combine it with water and carbon dioxide to create sugars and starches that they store and use to live on later when they are dormant. It is during this time when they have the best store of energy and are primed…
What’s going on in my North Texas garden in November?
Cooler weather has arrived, and the leaves are falling. Some of the best garden color of the year is here right now! Depending on what plants you have, this fall growth can last well into December. In addition to adding in pansies for winter color, other annuals like petunias will often enjoy a second bloom well into the beginning of winter. Winter Flowering Plants Camellias are known for their beautiful, waxy flowers that come in various colors, including white, pink, and red. They bloom from late fall through early spring, depending on the variety. Witch hazel produces unique, spidery flowers in shades of yellow, orange, or red from late winter to early spring. It’s a fragrant and attractive winter-blooming shrub. Hellebores, also known as lenten roses, bloom from late winter to early spring. They offer a range of colors, including white, pink, purple, and green. These hardy perennials are a…
It’s Fall Garden Time! Garden Activities for October
After this long hot and dry summer, it’s so nice to see gardens starting to perk back up and show off a little. It’s not quite time to put your garden to bed for the winter. Just like our North Texas spring gardens are ended by the heat and lack of rain, fall gardens are only ended by the first hard freeze that usually comes in late December or occasionally January. That means your fall garden is just as important, and can be just as vibrant as your spring garden. Fall Flowering Perennials Anyone who has a teenager even tangentially involved in high-school football knows that mums are a classic choice for fall color. What many people don’t realize is that this perennial can provide exceptional fall color to you garden. They come in various colors and sizes and can be used in beds, borders, or containers. Mums are one…
Prepping for Your Fall Garden
Finally, there is a hint of cooler weather, and the return of the fall rains is nearly upon us. This means your garden is ready to explode back to life, and we can’t wait to see all that beautiful fall garden color! Irrigation This summer’s heat and lack of rain have seriously tested most irrigation systems. Some of you may have gardens and lawns that look like they have been blasted by the summer heat. If there are areas of your sprinkler system that are broken, or where perhaps it simply didn’t get enough water in the right places, it should be patently obvious now. Take the time to address any problems with your irrigation now so that your plants will have a fighting chance to recover in time for winter. Fall Plantings Towards the end of the month, start planning and purchasing fall bulbs like tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths…
