South Florida’s Local Landscaping Company
Placida
Awesome results, would highly recommend!! This was a big and daunting project, it’s hard to completely reflect the dramatic difference in before/after, but we tried to capture it in photos. We purchased this house where the prior owners had overplanted, neglected the landscape to a very overgrown status, sustained Hurricane Ian damage, and had a spiderweb of irrigation spanning 3 lots.
Working with Annie was such a wonderful experience! She helped me learn about and narrow down plants that would work well in SWFL; listened to my ideas, and made suggestions, and then, provided 3D rendering to help visualize the design. She coordinated all of the work with experienced contractors and was on-site every day to oversee all the work, working right alongside in hot/humid conditions.
Annie explained how the soil really needed amended, so new mushroom compost and fresh mulch were applied around all plants. All irrigation was replaced with new. We also eliminated a lot of tedious mowing areas with hardscapes; planted natural sea grapes in an area to help stop erosion by the waterfront, amended fruits trees. Best of all, created beautiful butterfly and bird habitats!!!
Some on-going projects to do like edging, pavers and driveway, but so happy with the results and enjoying the yard/garden for the first time since we moved here a couple years ago. We’ve had so many compliments and the yard finally compliments the house and beautiful area we live in!

As a master gardener, Annie is able to provide recommendations and design for gardens native to the Florida ecosystem. She listened carefully and provided a garden for our backyard that is lovely, colorful, inviting for butterflies and birds and just what we were hoping for!

Annie did an amazing job!! I would highly recommend her for any landscaping work. She was extremely responsive and provided a landscaping diagram & plan very quickly for a time sensitive project.
She helped coordinate the project with other contractors and delivered an amazing product – she installed all new landscaping after the old stuff was demolished and a pool was put in. The landscaping was put in very quickly and the end result is beautiful. She was extremely helpful, responsive, and pleasant to work with.

Annie is the best!
She transformed our dull landscaping into one full of flowers and color. She listened carefully to what we wanted (flowering bushes, nothing that could be turned into hedges) and really delivered. So far, only the blue and yellow flowers have bloomed, but I’m looking forward to the spring when all will bloom.
Annie selected the healthiest plants and supervised the layout and planting. She was on site every day and handled the communications with the landscaper and irrigation teams. Her hands-on approach made such a difference. Even after the job was finished, she visited, pulling weeds and making sure that they were getting enough water.
I highly recommend Annie. She is friendly and a pleasure to work with. I’m already thinking of another area for her to work her magic.

Annie Ahlers of Tending To His Garden was recommended to me by one of the largest landscapers in the State of Florida. And, WOW were they on target! It would be an understatement just to say that Annie has been a great blessing to me. She is bringing my front yard back to tropical life after so much tree and plant damage especially following Hurricane Ian.
She has an almost “family member” personal style bringing with it absolutely no pressure. And yet she endeavors to work strictly within your budget while offering tree and plant suggestions that will be there for you for the long term. She is uniquely professional, responsive, always on time while constantly checking your schedule, her chosen plants are of proven excellent quality and that leads to improved home value. And last but not least, she continually follows up to be sure the plants are working for the site and that they are receiving sufficient watering.
I have developed a great respect for Annie and look forward to continuing our relationship to refresh all the remaining areas of my yard. Yes, you may call me “a Happy Customer.”

Annie is a Garden Guru. Annie has done the landscaping at my house. It turned out so beautiful and colorful. We had such great results we referred her to my in-laws. Talk about home makeover.
The appearance of a house makes a big impact on the community you live but also on your well being and mental health. Now my mother in law has a beautiful garden she can look at when pulling into the driveway or sitting on her lanai.

It was such a joy to work with Annie to refresh my landscape. She asked the right questions and offered a beautiful design.
The landscape staff worked so efficiently and in a short time, my garden was transformed. (Annie working right beside them.) Not only was I satisfied but my neighbors are complementary and requested her card.
Annie was a pleasure to work with. She provided great insight and listened to our interest and what we envisioned, and exceeded expectations–very knowledgeable and great value.
She truly strives to ensure you are happy and takes great pride in knowing she met your objectives and price point.
Marie and I really enjoyed working with Annie in designing and installing the landscape at our home in Sarasota. She is very creative, knows her plants, and makes sure she understood what we, as the customer wanted at our home.
The crew she employs to do the installation work were hardworking, courteous, and attentive to the installation. The final outcome has been very pleasing and we have received numerous compliments from our neighbors on how beautiful the house looks. So, thank you Annie!
Lakewood Ranch
We recently decided to change our potted plants in our Lanai and also redo the beds around our home. Thankfully, we got in touch with Annie and her team at “Tending to HIS Garden”. Annie and her team were amazing to work with.
Annie has a creative eye, knows her plants, was so accessible and helpful during our entire project. The team that she works with is meticulous, responsive, and courteous. My wife I have high expectations and we are beyond pleased with the outcome of our project.
I would highly recommend Annie for any projects that you are considering.
