“I couldn't be happier with the outcome of a lawn/garden problem that Gill Garden Center helped me solve. Landscape designer Harry Villarreal recommended "frog fruit" ground cover to replace grass that was struggling to survive under my Live Oak trees. Given the drought and water restrictions, grass no longer made sense for me. I am shocked. In just six weeks, this beautiful native, drought-resistant ground cover blankets nearly all of ground. It's almost ready to be mowed. Harry and the team did superb work. And there is another huge benefit. This area is essentially now a pollinator garden that feels alive. Who knew? I'm adding a before and after picture.”

“Harry Villarreal designed a landscape plan for my side-and backyard that turned out amazing! He listened to what I liked and wanted, concentrating on TX natives and drought tolerant perennials. Gill’s also installed frog fruit in the front & backyard as a grass alternative-it’s filling in beautifully. The men on the crew: Ben, Jimmy, Arnold, Brandon, Pearson, & Tony were professional and extra helpful. I highly recommend Gill’s for landscaping!”

“Clean healthy plants, beautifully areanged. Perfect time to walk through their forest of Christmas trees. The smell is incredible! Very knowledgeable. They helped with exploring native plans options and were patience. Highly recommend for advice.”

“Gill’s put in a 1000 gallon cistern in my backyard, and I love it! As long as we have rain to fill it up, I can water whenever I want!”

“We hired Harry and the Gill's team almost two years ago to xeriscape our front yard from scratch. New build, corner lot, full sun, a pull-through driveway, and Corpus Christi water restrictions bearing down on us made this a complicated project. Harry came in with a thoughtful, well-developed plan built entirely around Texas native plants and drought-tolerant species. He clearly knew what he was talking about and genuinely cared about getting it right for our specific conditions and involving our input and feedback every step of the way. The installation crew was impressive. Professional, efficient, and so committed to the project that they actually asked if they could come in on a Saturday to keep the work moving. That kind of attitude is rare. Two years later, the yard looks better than it ever has. Everything is thriving, and we have never once worried about it surviving the summer heat or drought conditions. Harry and the entire Gill's team have been responsive and knowledgeable every step of the way. Harry even took time to meet with us after the installation to provide detailed care and maintenance instructions for us. Couldn't recommend them more highly.”
