Joe did an excellent job moving a flower bed for us. He arrived when he said he would, worked quickly and carefully, and left everything neat and tidy. The whole process was smooth and hassle‑free, and the price was very reasonable for the quality of work. I highly recommend English Country Gardener and would not hesitate to hire Joe again. More...

English Country Gardens did a fantastic job at our home in Cumberland. Joe arrived on time, finished early, and was professional and great to deal with from start to finish. He ground out old tree stumps around the garden and identified and removed sick, dying cedars, replacing them with healthy new ones. The backyard looks so much better. Joe also shared practical advice and was incredibly reassuring about how to care for the cedars — he really knows his stuff when it comes to plant health and keeping everything thriving.We look forward to working with Joe and English Country Gardens again. Highly recommend. More...

We had a wonderful experience working with Joe. From start to finish, he was professional, creative, and adaptable to our ideas. He completely removed our front lawn and redesigned it with native plants that not only look great but also support local wildlife. We’ve had several neighbors stop by to admire his work and ask for his contact information — a true testament to the quality of his design and craftsmanship. Highly recommend! More...

We hired Joe to give some love and attention to a star magnolia tree that means a lot to our family and he absolutely transformed it from a bit of a mess into a healthy, gorgeous tree again. We were so happy we hired him back to tackle some other overgrown corners of our front yard. Once again, he did an expert job, gave new life to some long neglected areas of the garden. Joe's also an incredibly lovely person to have working in your yard. I would recommend these folks any time. More...

I would hire English Country Garden again in a heartbeat! Joe took on a really tough job of rebuilding a rotted pergola and he did the job on time and on budget. He even managed to keep the massive kiwi vine intact! Joe’s a rare talent in the industry: a great hard scaper who can build with any type of medium, he’s great at design, and he’s even knowledgeable about plants! More...

Joe has provided garden maintenance to my mature garden of shrubs and flowers for the past two years . I could not be more pleased with the results . My biology background plus childhood in England brought a quick bond and appreciation for his extensive horticultural knowledge and enthusiasm. Joe tackles projects with great care and attention to the best approach for each plant . Our garden has benefited greatly from the last two years of his care . He has an excellent “eye” for pruning shrubs and has great suggestions when dividing or replanting . His skills will be greatly missed as he moves to the Island . More...

Joe is a knowledgeable, hard working, passionate gardener/landscaper. He pours everything and more into the job at hand. As previous happy West Vancouver clients (now residing in the Comox Valley) we needed some landscaping done. We were beyond thrilled when Joe made the trip hauling over 150 plants in his truck. He spent the entire day planting all the plants along our driveway and left to catch the ferry home that evening. We couldn’t be happier! We are beyond grateful that we found such a rare and truly wonderful gardener/landscaper. Joe is a gift to all those fortunate to know him. More...

Joe recently transformed our front garden, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. His attention to detail is truly impressive; from perfectly edging the flower beds to thoughtfully selecting plants that complement the space and thrive in our climate. Joe took the time to listen to what we wanted and executed it beautifully. Highly professional, punctual, and clearly passionate about his work. Our garden has never looked better! More...
