"Donna was great to work with. She produced plans for our proposed new deck in a timely manner - under a slightly tight timeframe too for added pressure! She was always punctual and pleasant to deal with. Her plan fits perfectly with our unusual space and limited budget. We're happy with the plans and can't wait for the project to begin and show her the finished masterpiece. Thanks Donna. "

"Donna is an absolutely fantastic landscape designer. She has a lovely warm manner and is incredibly 'in tune' with what people want for their gardens, but what sets her apart is that she is also the ultimate professional. Her attention to detail is faultless, her in-depth knowledge of not just plants, flowers and trees, but also soil is exceptional. She turned our 'blasted heath/scorched earth' into a paradise. My mother had some very specific requests including no hedges and no lawns, so she… gave us some flowering screens, and a no-mow area, she gave us a veggie patch, a herb garden, and then the most amazing trees and pots. All our neighbours have commented about how lovely our garden looks - I simply cannot rate Donna highly enough."

"After many attempts and failures to landscape around our pool we decided to call an expert Donna Stanish. From our first meeting we felt relaxed and confident that we would end up with our perfect outdoor area. Donna listened to what we were saying and delivered an outstanding plant plan. The choice of palms and plants exceeded our expectation, now the planting is completed we are looking at very relaxing informal/formal garden that has completed the indoor outdoor flow of our colour scheme. I… wouldn't hesitate to recommend Donna, she went the extra mile delivering palms with her husband on a Friday evening in Auckland traffic with family commitments pending. Such a lovely lady easy to talk and really does know her plants."

"Donna was very personable and easy to deal with. Ours was not an easy job - time dragged out and layout changed from original. She was patient with the changes and communicated well with other parties (eg. builder). She also put in a lot of effort to ensure we were clear on the plant choices and layout. She anticipated well with respect to the sorts of things we would like and fitted the plants and layout with the style of the house. When asked for specific features she responded 100%… appropriately with great solutions The plants she sourced for us appear to have been of good quality (early days yet, but no failures and plenty of blooms), Her communications via phone, text and email were timely and comprehensive. I would happily recommend Donna to friends."

"Donna responded quickly to my initial enquiry and her knowledge and professionalism was evident from the first meeting. Within the set timeframe Donna provided a comprehensive and detailed plan covering all aspects of the design e.g plants, garden preparation and post planting care as well as hard landscaping and additional suggestions to consider. The quality of the plan was first class and she was happy to discuss any parts I didn't understand or needed help with. The design met all my… criteria and the value Donna provides is exceptional. I highly recommend Donna services."

"We have redone our entire garden and Donna has done a wonderful job for us from start to end. Donna had so many great ideas on plants, many that would never had occurred to me to select. The whole garden has come together really well and I couldn't be more happy with the result. Donna's follow through was fantastic. "
Donna responded:
"Thanks Jan, it was a pleasure working with you both. Thank you also for the two recommendations to friends where I have completed plans. We are starting implementation with the Gardiners."

"Donna, provided a very professional service assisting in getting us resource consent after an error in planning by our builders. She is an excellent communicator, and went the extra mile by discussing issues directly with the council and the builders to ensure her plans would offer what was needed. We love her plans for the landscaping for our new home and would recommend her to anyone wanting a well thought out, creative and visually appealing job. She offered many tips on how we could save… money by doing some of the work ourselves as well as offering to link us up with recommended companies to do the work for us. Thanks Donna!"

I would highly recommend Donna to anyone! Thanks :-)"

"We were really happy with the service Seed Landscapes gave us. Donna was very good in communicating with us and completely reliable throughout the process. The plan she drew up for us is easy to implement and suits our budget, our lifestyle and our plant preferences. It delivers exactly what we want in a garden. I think one of the great things about the service provided is that it divides our garden into a series of achievable project areas that we can tackle as time and funding allow. Before… we spoke to Donna our garden presented an Everest of bewildering choices and expensive potential mistakes. I'm very happy to recommend this company!"

"Seed landscapes were very thorough and Donna was the only designer that we met with in the first instance to listen to what we wanted, take on board how we live in our house to come up with the best plan for the space. We were impressed by her ability to envision the spaces and really thought through how to make it something really special. "

The plan she came up with was creative and stylish. She took on board the ideas and concepts we had given her and gave them the professional touch we would not have been able to. "

"I found Donna really easy to deal with and am very pleased with the designed she produced. She has turned the existing non-descript front entrance way into a pretty courtyard area that will be well used this coming summer. She had great knowledge of plants and provided photos which helped me understand her vision. I liked her suggestions for plants that will provide screening from the neighbours without encroaching too much on the usable lawn area that I wanted to maximise for the dogs. She… also suggested that by recladding the rear fence all the boundary fences would be the same height making them more attractive. I would recommend Donna to anyone."

"Christine and Dave Ross - Orakei, Auckland Two years ago we decided to redevelop our garden. We approached Donna who provided a professional service, listening to our ideas and requirements and delivering a design that was tailored specifically for us and which fitted our needs. Donna was also able to recommend landscape contractors, ensuring the process of creating the new garden was as easy and stress free as possible. Also her ability to source good quality plants from different areas… of the country was invaluable. We are delighted with our new garden which is constantly changing with the different seasons. It makes the most of the available space and provides an area of peace and tranquillity. The garden looks wonderful at night with lighting providing a relaxing atmosphere for barbeques and entertaining – something all the family can enjoy. We would highly recommend Donna as a professional, creative and knowledgeable landscape designer."

"We continue to be amazed at how we are now so attracted to and utilize so often a part of our property that previously was completely unavailable to us. We love the new perspective across the pool, leaping in from the deck is also enjoyed by some - we have a chiminea and old kauri table and it is a delight to see our sons and their girlfriends enjoying our new garden under the stars.

"Donna has landscaped five properties for me over the last four years. Donna has proven herself very capable over taking a brief from someone with no landscaping knowledge and turning this into a well conceived plan, that often exceed what I had envisaged. Donna sticks to budgets and completes the projects on time. I would highly recommend Seed Landscapes to anyone considering a landscaping project. "

"From Donnas very first visit, we found her to be easy to understand and full of great vision and expertise knowledge of planting, lighting and a total feel for what a family desire from their space. Her knowledge of the plants and lighting effects have transformed the day to evening feel with the mere flick of a switch. We love every aspect of the back, side and front of our home. It has become a haven for everything from kids birthday parties , social barbeque\'s and afternoon reading… by the pool. The planting has grown beyond our expectations and as the layers become more obvious as the months pass, we truly have a piece of the tropics in our very own Grey Lynn. I would recommend Seed Landscapes without any hesitation and truly stand amazed at the transformation of our much treasured home."

"Our entire experience with Seed Landscapes was fantastic. Donna's expert advice was well appreciated. She is professional, clearly knows her trade, is prompt and clear with communication and is a lovely person. We needed our plants by a deadline and Donna achieved this making it an easy process. I dread to think of all the hours we spent at garden centres trying to organise the plants ourselves thinking it would save money - my advice... leave it to the experts at Seed Landscapes!!"

"Donna and her team of contractors were fantastic. My expectation of timings and service were high, but Donna and her team managed the project and process extremely well. 1yr on from the redesign and the planting that was recommended and implemented have worked fabulously. As have all the other aspects of design. If your looking for a professional that works to achieve your goals in design, planting and importantly cost. Give Donna a call."
