Every experience I have had with Jumanji and her team has been exceptional (designing and installing native plantings to transform a grassy slope & rock wall; installing a flagstone patio; troubleshooting when a water problem arose; teaching me a lot about natives in the process). Expectations and communication have consistently been clear, timely and reliable (which especially stands out to me, as this had not been the case with a different company I worked with before switching to RDF). On more than one occasion, the final cost ended up being *less* than what the initial estimate for the project was, which was a pleasant surprise. The only plants in my yard that are not doing well are the ones I put there myself; in contrast, everything Jumanji touched is thriving (she clearly knows her stuff!). On top of it all, the team members are delightful human beings to be around. Oh, and my garden feels magical. Consider me a happy customer!
We can't say enough about how wonderful our experience has been working with Jumanji and crew. We have some real steepness to the property and were having a difficult time imagining what to do from a landscaping perspective. Jumanji did a fabulous job on the design and made previously unusable space very lovely and useable! She executed the plan to perfection- creating a large patio, sitting space, and a meditation garden. Jumanji is very knowledgeable and environmentally conscious from the products she uses to selecting drought tolerant plant varieties. We are excited to continue working Jumanji and her team on the next phase of transformation! And she's a lovely human to work with!
Last year Jumanji designed a beautiful native garden for me. She drew a detailed map of the area, recommended and provided plants and came out to help place them. A season later and it has already filled in. This summer Jumanji created a brick pathway through our yard to our cottage and shed. I watched her carefully and expertly create this long curved path. It looks fantastic. I also observed her diligent hard work. She is dependable and efficient and I highly recommend her for gardening and hardscape.
Rainy Day Flora was really great to work with through all phases of our large native garden installation. They worked with us on the design after a couple of site visits and came up with an really terrific layout, including a circle of natural stone pavers for a patio area. They worked hard and the installation was quick. The native plants they put in were all very healthy and have acclimated well. The stone patio area looks great. They built up some berms to make the space more intimate, works really well. A fantastic job, highly recommend them.
Jumanji designed a short and long-term plan for our new-home landscaping a little over a year ago, and has done two installations. They look gorgeous! Her plant selections - native and deer-resistant - are lovely, and she did an excellent job planning for successive bloom and color. She listens to our preferences and concerns, and her communication is clear and prompt regarding questions, scheduling and budget. The whole process has been easy and enjoyable. I highly recommend her.
