  Mil helped me begin a garden around a house built at the end of cotton rows in northeastern NC....and it has developed over 16 years into a well-established garden in full splendor. Friends have seen its continued growth (pun intended) and commented on the lush plantings and graciousness of the path as your eye moves from one area to another. She taught me the value of a curved concrete side walk and a parking court for my guests. The addition of my late aunt's hellebores and crepe myrtles along with a friend's very old irises and a weeping cherry planted near the clothes line have added to the beauty. Mil has a proven reputation--she is a master! And I am blessed from listening and following her advice and guidance.

  Mil and her talented and conscientious hard working crews have been creating, beautifying and maintaining our private sanctuary for many years. We have incorporated A Southern Gardener design ideas to restore and embellish our gardens and have elevated existing plantings that add mature beauty while always being cognizant of maintenance and watering needs. We appreciate the continuing yearly addition of flowering bulbs to increase the abundance of blooms in the Spring. The crews are always respectful, knowledgable and inspirational to us. Our dog, Blue loves to see and greet each crew member when they visit our gardens!

  Mil and her team have done a fantastic job with our pots, routine maintenance, spring/fall clean-ups and annual plantings. They are 100% reliable and Mil has a great eye for color and design. Highly recommend!

  "I couldn't be happier with the work Mil and her team at A Southern Gardener have done for my garden. Mil truly knows her stuff, and it shows in every detail of her work. Every time I come home, I'm greeted by the stunning beauty she's created and expertly maintained. The attention to detail and care they put into their work is exceptional. If you're looking for a gardener who combines skill, creativity, and reliability, I highly recommend Mil and A Southern Gardener!"
