What do customers say?

Farmer's Nursery draws strong loyalty from landscape designers and homeowners alike, with staff who can back up plant recommendations with real training. Kevin's expertise and Austin's willingness to load trucks and answer questions set the tone; the owners have roots deep in Leander. Prices hit a sweet spot between fair and competitive, and their soil, mulch, and amendments earn specific praise. The selection skews toward quality over breadth, which some find refreshing but others note as a trade-off.

Plants, soil, and bulk materials are the backbone. They bag or deliver compost, sand, and gravel locally, and landscape professionals trust them enough to send clients their way. The business feels small and farm-like by design, not accident, and that character appears to be part of why people keep coming back.

Eco earns strong marks for professionalism and fair pricing on landscape, irrigation, and hardscape work across the greater Austin area. Adam and Pedro lead a crew known for finishing on time, cleaning up thoroughly, and engaging thoughtfully with homeowners. Two significant reviews document shallow pipe installation (2-3 inches versus standard 6-8 inches), creating freeze damage and leaving owners frustrated with the owner's warranty refusal and dismissal of the failures. Repeated scheduling and communication gaps between the office and field crews appear in older reviews. Most recent work shows marked improvement in coordination and follow-up. Long-term customers praise 12-plus years of consistent service; the backflow testing and system maintenance side earns particular confidence.

Every review gives five stars, and they cluster around the same person: Easton, the owner, shows up when promised, talks straight about costs, and finishes jobs thoroughly whether trimming crape myrtles, pulling weeds from flower beds, or hauling off debris. Reviewers praise his respect and politeness as much as the work itself. The operation handles design, hardscaping with river rocks, mulch installation, seasonal cleanups, and regular maintenance. Prices start at $225 for single visits or $650 for small refreshes; landscape design runs $1,500 to $8,000+.

Strong early reputation for neat, fast cleanup and tree work at good prices, with staff who kept clients informed. Recent reviews report communication breakdowns: unanswered calls and apparent staff turnover have left some customers without follow-up.
