Friendly and respectful service was given. Hard working men that get the job done efficiently and in a manageable time frame. Highly recommend!

Good kind service.

Large selection of flowers very good.

Came here on Sunday to buy 7 pavers 1st not 17x16x2 but 15.7x15.7x1.7, then took 3 different cashier's to fogure out how much they cost, then I was charged for 8 not 7. I'm going to Home Depot next time!

Good place to work.

Great Landscape company. Very proactive and efficient.

Completely unnecessary start at 645am. These guys have no respect for the community.

Dont call them. Theyll scratch your car while cutting and not clean up after themselves.

I dont know anything about the work this company does. I do know that there employees are terrible. Not only do they take all the parking on a street they aren't located on, but they also releave themselves in the bushes on the side of the road during broad day light.

Just a word of advice for HOA’s that are considering a change to Holmes landscaping. Beware of potential inexperience, as it could be costly for your community.

A board member in my HOA at Ocean Hills Summit informed me in writing that Holmes landscaping “recommended” removing a large queen palm tree from my property that is in the common area maintained by my HOA.

I planted this palm tree myself along with 5 other queen palms on the property 26 years ago. The tree was healthy green and thriving with a new frond coming out at the top. There is landscaping lighting on the tree to showcase it at night. The canopy was wind blown and leaning to one side but it has done that off and on over the years. Maybe the tree was unsightly to someone?

Our HOA president informed my wife that Holmes charged our HOA $600 to cut the tree down and haul away. This cost was obviously absorbed by all of us homeowners.

Our board and landscape committee is relatively new and apparently unable to ask why we should cut down a perfectly healthy palm tree.

In summary, not sure why Holmes would recommend to our landscape committee that cutting down a living mature palm tree was the absolute right thing to do. It’s unfortunate that our landscape committee doesn’t have the skill, knowledge and experience to plush back and ask why? It’s green, it’s alive, the tree trunk is spectacular, etc.

It’s plausible that Holmes has newer, inexperienced people out making these recommendations to landscape committees with similar inexperience, which of course leads to a situation such as I am describing. Either way, it’s a loss for our small community and a complete waste of HOA fees.

So in the future, before selecting or making a landscape maintenance contractor change, please interview and ensure the Holmes representative assigned to your community has the requisite experience and knowledge and is able to make proper recommendations to protect the integrity of your community.

Thank you for reading this post.

Agreeing with a review I saw below. Can't speak on the companies landscaping abilities but their employees have no respect for businesses on a street where they aren't located. The whole street is taken up by them causing parking problems. They walk down the middle of the street and go to the bathroom on and around businesses that aren't theirs. Unacceptable behavior all around.

Horrible and awful landscaping company to contract with! We presently have this company to take care of our HOA backyard neighborhood yearly brush/shrub management unfortunately this company does not even meet our “minimum” cleaning expectations even after we submit a complaint to our HOA board. You would think this company will do their best to keep our business, but no they don’t care as long as the regular payments come on time. Hope to soon be able to replace this company with a definitely conscientious workers who will be willing to do what is right to avoid more canyon fires here in San Diego.

This company started using electric technology for their blowers and trimmers and lawn mowers.And it is so much quieter and cleaner.We really appreciate their effort in going down this path.They're the best!

Nice job

Magical lil plant shop. The owner is went out of his way to customize a pot for a beautiful rat tail cactus for us. Everything in this store is pristine.
