Testimonials
"Rose worked for 3 years as our live-in property manager and estate gardener for our 5-acre West County site. During this time, she lovingly cared for our vineyard, orchard, perennial beds, and abundant seasonal vegetable beds. She managed greenhouse propagation and plant installation, maintained irrigation, handled pest and disease issues, and created seasonal maintenance plans for us. We highly recommend Rose!"

“For those looking to hire Rose Mohan, we can’t recommend her too highly. Rose is a skilled and conscientious gardener and landscaping professional, who has been working with us for years on our one acre property in Sebastopol. Her expertise has been crucial in bringing life back to fruit trees that were not producing well when we bought the property, as well as employing strategies to keep all trees, vegetable gardens, flowers and shrubbery at their maximal growing potential. She has a keen interest and understanding of what each plant needs, and has always been proactive in her approach, season by season, with an understanding of what our ever-changing microclimate may bring to bear. In closing, we’d also like to say that Rose is just a joy to work with. She has such a lovely temperament of openness, empathy and understanding that has added such value to our experience working with a landscaping professional. We are 100% confident that you will value her work and presence on your project as much as we have.”

”We have been working with Rose for over a year to enhance our garden and yard. Numerous neighbors highly recommended her, and we have loved working with her. She was attentive to our goals of privacy and a calming space for our family. She provided a vision of the garden and a list of native and drought-tolerant plants. She organized the installation and continued to offer ideas to improve the space. This is a journey to get to the garden and yard we envision. We are enjoying the fruits of her labors and ideas as the plants start to grow.”

“Rose didn't choose the gardener life, the gardener life chose her. That's what it feels like when we work together. I have complete faith in her judgement when it comes to what is best for my garden. She is very good at giving me the lay of the land and developing suitable courses of action. Gardens are dynamic, living systems, and Rose understands the nuance in tending to them with considerable skill.”
