"Scott truly worked his magic on our backyard! Before he started we had overgrown grasses and high maintenance flowers that were not working for us. He took the time to listen to what we wanted in terms of look-feel and got right to work transforming our garden.
Not only did he create a beautiful, east to maintain garden, but he also made sure the garden was safe after we got a dog, thoughtfully swapping out anything that could be harmful. Beyond his incredible work, Scott was so kind, patient and easy to work with. His passion for what he does shines through in every detail, from his thoughtful plant choices to his interactions with clients.
He truly cares about making sure you love your garden.. and it shows. Now our backyard is an oasis and we get so many compliments. We're so grateful for Scott." -Marlene and Fabio Pacifica CA 2025
"Scott managed my home garden areas for about four years, only stopped once he moved. My gardens have several areas with different light and other conditions. Scott was a valued gardener, I love that he treated the gardens as if they were his own, taking pride in their appearance and health.
I also love that I did not need to direct, Scott was proactive, responsible and thinking around the corner. Yes, he would respond and comply with my input, but he was usually many steps ahead of me. This includes the irrigation as well, repairing, modifying, etc.
I mostly appreciated Scott's service level, because great service is not common. Scott knows his plants and flowers, comes up with unique and fun ideas and is respectful to my wishes.
As a result, the gardens look great all year long! I highly recommend him and am happy to serve as a reference." RG in SF 2025
"Over several weeks, Scott developed a vision of what our gardens could become. In my experience, he is unusually sensitive to the potential of a site and listens attentively to both his human client and the soil, conditions, and existing flora." -Margaret G 2018
"Scott has created gardens in front of our house and in back that are visually pleasing and quietly artful." -Frank T 2015
"Scott turned our backyard into a beautiful and more kid friendly space. He had lots of great ideas and would always find a way to make our dreams come true in terms of color, texture that were well suited to our space" -Brendan K 2025
"I gave Scott the challenge to find mostly natives for our gardens, and he has surpassed my best hopes in the number, variety, and beauty of the specimens he found through diligent research throughout the bay area. He has skillfully woven these natives in among existing plants in a harmonious design achieved by judicious relocation and aesthetic balance. I am very pleased with Scott's work and recommend Masterpiece Gardening highly." -Steven E 2021
Our back yard is looking splendid this morning, with small and complicated blossoms peeking out all over the place. I identified gentians and gilias and there several more that are just glowing back there. Thanks so much for bring such variety and native integrity to our plantings. -DR 2017
Scott, Thanks so much for getting things in shape for the wedding. It looks great, and we took lots of photos in the garden and on the deck. I appreciate your work and enjoy working with you. Thanks again. Mark K 2019

The natives you found are so stunning! Where have they been hiding? I haven't seen them at the few nurseries I've visited and gardeners who worked with me before have not found such a gorgeous array to
propose. Thanks for persevering within the native boundary I requested--I really appreciate it. Brian R 2023
Scott F has been my gardener for 5 years. Everything was overgrown and full of weeds...a mess. Today you wouldn't believe it is the same place. Everyone who sees it now can't get over how beautiful it is.
Scott is excellent at projecting how things would look if new flowers were used, old ones moved and the same for shrubs and bushes. When he prunes a tree it is a joy to the eye.
He may seem young for all his knowledge but he has been doing this for quite some time. Scott is a responsible and interesting individual and I would not hesitate to recomend him to anyone.
I feel privaleged to have him as a friend-which doesn't influence my thoughts on all of the above.
