We had an overgrown garden in the back of a Brooklyn brownstone. Over 300 sq.ft. It was left to nature for 2 years. Yikes. Figtree sent two amazing gardeners and within hours I could find the stone path, my roses, stone bench and more. Working with Zack and team was a dream and very affordable. Here's the after pic. The before looked like a jungle. More...

Friendly, helpful, professional, and affordable. Recommended to us by our neighbors who also had a great experience. Our gardener Amit was a delight to work with, taught us a lot about our garden, and worked quickly and efficiently. Our back and front yards have never looked better! More...

Rosa and Amit from Isaiah’s Figtree were wonderful. They arrived on time, were very easy to communicate with, offered up some good suggestions and cleaned up our garden beautifully! Rosa had some experience in interior design as well and had a good eye for how to use the plant material we had and add to our garden to make it look full and lush. Both Amit and Rosa were friendly and experienced. And Zack was a great organizer and communicator also. Very grateful to have found them! More...

Zack of Isaiah's Figtree embodies professionalism in all he does. He is thorough, kind, considerate and trustworthy, and his work is just beautiful. I once had only grass to view, and now I have a lush and beautiful garden of flowering trees and bushes, fruits and vegetables. I am grateful to have found Isaiah's Figtree and no longer trust my garden to anyone other than Zach. Thank you Zach, for the beauty you have surrounded me with! More...

Having a backyard in Brooklyn is a gift. Finding someone to help truly care for it is also a gift! Zack has done amazing work for us this year. We have a combination of grass, plants and bushes and he did a great job of cultivating all three - he is truly a plant whisperer! He was always on time, brought whatever supplies were needed (tools, mulch, seeds, whatever) and was reasonably priced. Zach is a pleasure to work with and we are looking forward to having him back next season! More...

It's mid of December now, but roses that Zack planted are still blooming. I contacted him sometime in the end of May, and already in June my outdoor terrace became a gorgeous oasis which made me happy every time I look at it. I had exact vision and Zack helped me to implement it. He took care of everything ( delivery, cleaning up, mantaining it later ). We planted two big rose trees, all kinds of herbs, tomatoes and etc. I am a city person and can't even take care of plants, Zack educated me a lot on outdoor gardening. I will defiantly use his company again. Can't wait till spring. More...

This is as good as it gets. I needed a small job done. The small area in front of my brother's grave site at St John's cemetery needed to be planted and maintained. I do not have a car and live about two hours away by public transportation. The work has been beautifully and thoughtfully done by Zack Turck. He has kept in touch and sent pictures after each visit. It is almost like being there. You can judge a company not by how they treat their big customers but by how they treat their small and inconsequential ones. I highly recommend them. More...
