About Garden & Landscape Maintenance
Why I Call It More Than Just Maintenance
I’ve spent decades building and caring for gardens, but honestly, the best part is coming back and seeing how each plant settles in. For me, it’s never just about a one-time job. I want your space to stay alive, peaceful, and actually get better year after year. That’s why my team and I stick around through our annual garden maintenance plan - we don’t just maintain, we nurture.
What You Can Expect
- Regular visits, not just to water and go, but to actually look at how your plants are doing and what they need.
- Pruning, shaping, and expert lawn care services that keep things looking intentional, whether it’s a hedge or a big old tree.
- My horticulturists handle the boring bits too - keeping stone walkways clean, checking that your green wall’s mister is working, making sure every corner looks tidy.
Special Spaces, No Problem
I get a kick out of the tough jobs. If you’ve got a seafront villa, I know how to handle salt-tolerant plant maintenance. Rooftop garden care is something we’ve cracked over the years, and vertical gardens? We’re used to all those technical bits.
How I Work With You
It’s a year-long thing. I work on an AMC basis because gardens need consistent landscape upkeep - not just patchwork fixes. That way, your space keeps getting better, not just ‘staying alive’.

My Story
We’re Ferntastica Gardens, been at this for 45 years, and honestly, it’s still a family thing. Mario and Dolly started it, now Sheril’s the creative brain. We’re hands-on, picking every specimen tree ourselves. Watching a blank space turn green, seeing our plants thrive in someone’s home – that’s the real kick, yaar. Our roots are deep, and we’re still loving every bit of it.
