We love our new landscape. It took a lot of work to fix our deep slope and create shade beds behind huge red oaks and add boulders to outline the shade beds. We will definitely reach out in the spring for some additional plantings.

Working with Lena SIARA and SIARA Designs has been an outstanding experience from start to finish. Lena is knowledgeable, professional, and, most importantly, she does exactly what she says she will do. She took the time to understand our vision, provided thoughtful guidance on what was possible, and partnered with us to create a landscaping plan that truly fits our home and our goals. One of the things we appreciate most was her willingness to break the project into phases, allowing us to complete the work at a pace that made sense for us without compromising the overall design. Throughout the process, she has been responsive, transparent, and a true partner in every sense of the word. Her crew has been equally impressive. They clearly take pride in their work, pay attention to the details, and consistently go above and beyond. Each day they leave our property cleaner and better than they found it, which speaks volumes about their professionalism and respect for their customers. Finding a landscaping professional you can trust for the long term is rare, and we genuinely feel we’ve found that in Lena and SIARA Designs. We look forward to working with her for many years as our landscaping continues to evolve. We highly recommend Lena and her team to anyone looking for exceptional design, quality craftsmanship, and outstanding customer service.

Siara Designs helped us remove worn-out turf, grade the yard, helped install drainage pipes, and create a stone walkway and garden areas. Lena and her team were great to work with. They were flexible with the schedule and they worked quickly and created exactly what we were looking for at a very reasonable price. I would recommend Siara Design to anyone.
