Annette with Specialty Gardens was a pleasure to work with. We contacted her for advice on designing our yard. She was thorough and efficient. She listened to our needs and presented us with ideas that would work well for our lifestyle at that time. Over the years our needs changed. I contacted Annette for assistance on selecting more plants to add to the yard. She was very accommodating and remembered who I was. Once a client always a client.

Specialty Gardens designed our xeriscape yard over 10 years ago. This included the requirement for water retention ponds, as well as hard and soft coverage. Detailed drawings needed to be submitted to the municipality for approval. Once approved, they became project managers working with various subs to ensure the job was done to design specs. They continue to do fall and spring maintenance and work effectively and efficiently to get the job done. They are always very good at what they do.

We hired Annette to draw up a blueprint and plan out all our flower beds. She was wonderful to work with. Her designs were amazing and her knowledge was top notch. I have zero green thumb and she answered my millions of questions. I feel confident if I have any questions down the road and reached out to her she would be more then happy to assist. She also got all our plants for us delivered to our home. Highly Recommend!

Besides being such a pleasant person to work with (over email and phone in our case), she is also very creative and meticulous in her designs!

“We would like to thank Specialty Gardens and more specifically Annette Vierling for the excellent work she did on our landscape plans for our new home and surroundings. We were looking for a more maintenance free yard and she certainly accomplished that while still making our yard the envy of the neighborhood.”

“Specialty Gardens has been a pleasure to work with, very professional, efficient, and thorough from start to finish. We love our yard which started as a barren area and thanks to Annette for all her patience, listening and many, many, promptly returned phone calls, we spend hours enjoying our well planned and planted yard and will for many years to come. Thanks, Annette, for the headache free yard.”

“My backyard has a very steep incline along the entire width of it which caused me much anxiety. Specialty Gardens redesigned the yard ensuring that the changes made blended with the existing landscape. The redesign was done as cost effectively as possible, the foliage planted added color and, best of all, it lowered the maintenance factor by 60%.”
– Brigitte Bertmann, Grande Cache, AB

“Not only does Annette have extensive knowledge of local plants and landscaping materials, but she also has a wonderful ability to combine them in creative and artistic ways, to create an outdoor environment that is exactly what I was hoping for. The plans were easy to read and to follow and were in fact a work of art in and of themselves. The interview process was thorough, and she took into account my budget, my lack of a green thumb and our lifestyle issues like pets, children and unpleasant neighbors. All in all, I am very pleased with my garden and would recommend Specialty Gardens to anyone looking to improve their yard and garden."
– Christine Whitelaw

“Annette has truly provided a professional product and facilitated the amalgamation of both our needs in our landscaping endeavors. A representation of her work is clearly evident and now on-display in our back yard. My wife wanted something "elegant yet informal" and Annette exceeded our demands. She is highly recommended if you want someone to make "your" vision a reality. From the earliest "what do you want in your yard" conversational stages though to the final "Professional Landscape Plans", she paints your picture. Annette exceeded our expectations and we are quite pleased with our results!"
