After looking high and low for a truly outstanding landscaping, design and maintenance service, we finally found it at Lanson B. Jones. We started with the maintenance first and then have moved into design and implementation. Over the past year, I have had the pleasure of getting to know Karen McGowan, Client Relations Director, Jim Jech, Landscape Architect, Jacob Pratel, Project Manager, Christian Rivas, Field Operations Manager, Carl Walsh and Maria Wenzel, Installation Supervisor, ALL have been the utmost professionals at every level.The two people that I have had the most contact and worked with most directly are Karen McGowan and Jacob Pratel. They both have been outstanding in guiding the process from start to execution, to completion. This is clearly a firm that I recommend because they deliver beyond expectations. More...

Lanson B. Jones and Co. helped transform our annual Huffington Award Dinner with their arrangements and centerpieces. Many guests commented on the beautiful floral designs, which truly complemented an elegant evening. We were extremely pleased by the results and professionalism of the Lanson B. Jones and Co. staff who ensured that each arrangement was perfectly intact before placement. They listened to our ideas and were wonderful to work with. We highly recommend Lanson B. Jones and Co. to any company or organization that has floral needs for major events. More...

This person took time out of his day to text me on how to stop the water leak. Huge thank you !!!! Hope your business continues to grow More...

Lanson B. Jones has an aesthetic discernment and design talent that is hard to find. Hired to tackle the most problematic features of our landscape, he did not disappoint. Careful consideration was given to home design, hardscape, sitting areas, plant choice, and maintenance needs. Lanson exceeded expectations - he transformed the proverbial ugly duckling into a swan. We love our garden! More...

Lanson and his team transformed our backyard from a typical yard into a resort style fantasy outdoor space. Day to day we interfaced with Maria, who is excellent, responsive and bright. They took us from the design to completion with the utmost care and diligence. They always made us feel that our job was top priority and that they were invested in it's success. Our design originated as a simple fireplace with patio. Then we decided we wanted to add a pool with specific dimensions etc. They accommodated and built for us a beautiful fireplace, pool, synthetic lawn (which we love) And Pareterre herb garden. Life is too short to not have an outdoor space you can enjoy. We are so happy we went with Lanson's team and we enjoy our outdoor space everyday. More...

Both Lanson and Nasi worked very hard to bring the vision that my husband and I had for our yard to life. Even though we have a small space, they took great care to listen to our thoughts and come back with wonderful suggestions and even more great ideas! They were very responsive and kept us up-to-date on any orders, delays, etc. And all of the workmen were very professional. I highly recommend Lanson B. Jones & Co. for your landscaping project.

We worked with Lanson B. Jones Company to plan and implement a soft, flowing garden that was child and family friendly throughout our yard in Friendswood. They listened to our ideas and were wonderful to work with. They incorporated our playhouse and trampoline into the plans. Rachel was an excellent project manager, responding quickly our issues during implementation. Great experience. More...

We hired Lanson to develop a European-style garden for our yard in Houston. We were specifically interested in something that would provide a pleasant environment during the winter months as this would be the main time we would be in Houston. Lanson took great care to listen to our needs and then met with us several times during the developmental stage. He was also good at suggesting and showing us examples of design elements that we would not have thought of on our own. When it came time to implement the design Lanson’s entire team was extremely professional to the point of perfection. The end result was exactly what we had envisioned and we could not be more pleased. We now use his maintenance team (led by Christian) to aid us in the continued growth and development of our small scale European garden. We highly recommend Lanson for anyone who desires to work with someone who has a passion for what they do as it will result in a unique, beautiful and well thought out landscape plan for their home.

Lanson B. Jones designed and installed our backyard landscaping. The result was not only elegant and beautiful but also a place that we regularly go outside and enjoy. Essentially they increased the square footage of our house by making our backyard part of our living space. More...

No project is to large or small for these guys. Â From a few hundred dollars to well over a million, I've seen and experienced the staff here continually blow peoples socks off. From the conceptual design phase through construction and then into ongoing maintenance these people know exactly what they are doing. More...

Lanson designed and installed landscaping at both a previous home and our current home. My husband and I never considered using anyone else. On both projects Lanson listened to our wishes and, with his artistic vision and meticulous attention to detail, planted a beautiful, lush landscape that we enjoy year-round. The entire group at Lanson B. Jones & Co.--office staff, foremen and work crews--exhibit professionalism and politeness. It is a pleasure to recommend them with five stars! More...

Lanson B. Jones did two large projects for me at two different residential locations. The most recent was a large patio project for a condominium that included putting in a watering system for the custom planters and a wall sculpture. All of this was done according to his design proposal and under his supervision. The work was done in a timely manner, on budget, that was finished beautifully. His crew was always professional, kind, made suggestions when the color needed changing out. I can recommend this company without hesitation. More...

Lanson B. Jones & Co. are excellent at what they do. They designed and installed an amazing back yard for us last year. They continue to maintain our landscape each week and we plan to continue using them for future projects. I would highly recommend them.

Lanson B Jones and Co completely transformed my pitiful, unsightly yard into a beautiful, luxurious garden. We were amazed by the results as they were even better than we expected them to be. Our garden is admired by us and by many people in our neighborhood. Random people stop and take pictures in our garden because it is so beautiful. Many thanks to Lanson and to his wonderful staff for all the work they did. More...

What inspired you to start your own business?
From an early age, Lanson was fascinated with design. This natural creativity was manifested in model building, jewelry design and art classes at the Glassell Museum.
As a student of landscape architecture at Texas A&M, Lanson traveled around Europe touring some of the world’s most famous gardens and architectural designs. The European landscape inspired Lanson and he developed a strong connection to historical spaces which still guide him today.
Lanson began his career at Fred Buxton & Associates as an associate landscape architect before joining McDugald Steele where he was the vice president of design of and a part of more than 50 award-winning projects.
Over the years, LBJ assisted with landscape construction plans and maintenance of the Johnson Public Library, Alley Theater, River Oaks Country Club, Lamar High School, ProVision and A.D. Players. While speaking to a local group of landscape architects, Lanson developed a vision for a company that would connect his work, travel, and studies. Lanson B. Jones & Company was established in 1994 – a landscape architecture firm based on his signature specialty: The European Scaled Garden design style approach.
