I highly recommend Julie Cummings : www.juliecummingsurbangardener.com She did a marvelous job with redoing our backyard. She and her team redid our sad little bluestone patio and even created a cool table/bar out of a slate slab that wasn’t doing anything. There are pix of this on her site. Good luck & enjoy!

Look at the first project on www.edkopel.com and you’ll see a beautiful backyard designed by the namesake architect. Plantings were done by Pall Walton of Brooklyn.

After a long search we hired Well Rooted Landscape design.  They designed and executed a garden that makes our backyard sing.  They came in with a very competitive price.  Contact them at wellrooted@gmail.com

We’re working with Bill Fidelo (http://billsgardens.com/) – and it’s going very well. Just about to start planting, so can’t tell for sure, but he’s been a pleasure to work with and his team is great. We chose him based on a recommendation from a good friend, and many barbeques in her lovely back garden.
