He's also incredibly knowledgeable and has given me plenty of advice about what to plant, dealing with weeds and how to take care of a garden as a beginner.

Wow. Just wow. Our backyard was so overgrown that I was ashamed. Clement came in and within a…read morefew hours, it looked brand new. He was so responsive throughout the whole process, a really nice guy, and so incredibly knowledgeable. (When we first looked at the backyard, he started talking about all of the different plant types, and I'm just standing there nodding and smiling.) He also gave me really helpful tips for how to take care of plants we had (e.g., rosebush) and to not let it get so overrun in the future. Fantastic job, and thank you so much! (Check out his before/after pics on his instagram. He really is a miracle worker!)

Leave a message on your voicemail stating you're no longer accepting new customers. Or post it online. But don't leave customers in limbo. Surprising, given the positive reviews on Yelp. Update - Called me today! Yeah! But said they are too busy - and will be busy for awhile. "Maybe they can squeeze me in" but didn't sound like they have time for me. Thx. I appreciate the call but it would have been so much better if they just told me that when I initially reached out. Better yet- just have a message posted online stating your current availability.

Johnny and his team just finished our backyard this morning and I can't say enough good things!…read more For starters, I reached out to them and found them to be responsive and available quickly. The initial consultation was thorough, and they prepared the quote quickly. The quote was detailed, it was easy to discuss/implement any changes - it felt like a truly cooperative process to come to a plan that we liked, was practical for our lifestyle, and within our budget. We were really looking for a company that could come in and take care of everything without the need to subcontract anything out, or organize additional vendors on our own and they fit that bill. They installed turf, removed 2 old rotting tree stumps, cleared out and replanted 2 areas of the garden, replaced a broken/rotting fence and set of steps, carted away any junk from the yard that didn't belong, and even repaired a hole in the cement left by the previous owners. The other thing that I really appreciated was that they listened when we said we wanted to keep things very low maintenance. Plants were chosen in a way that doesn't require us to fuss over them and allows us, our kid, and our dog to actually use the space without being worried about things getting ruined. During the work they required access through an apartment and were respectful of the space (and everyone's time), and left everything clean. The job took a touch longer than anyone initially expected, but that was caused by weather delays and a few extra items that came up as they were working. Communication about any changes was prompt, the additional work that came up was explained clearly, and I found any additional charges to be more than fair. We're so excited to get to use our garden and watch it grow as the weather improves, and I look forward to having Johnny and his team return for any regular maintenance. I'll try to remember to update this review with photos in the spring once things settle in and bloom.

We had such a good experience with this team!…read more From day 1 they were friendly and easy to work with. We loved the design they put together, they helped us make decisions to maintain high quality and stay within our budget, they were communicative throughout the process, and my dog loved the whole team which is always a great sign. Probably most importantly... the results are amazing. They were on time and under budget (first time that's happened for any house projects!), and I love being out in the yard now. Everything is done just right. Definitely would work with them again! I wish they did interiors too!

We agreed on a price/date. On the date/time the work was supposed to be done, the guy doesn't show up and states he's doing another job right now. That's fine, I get it. Shit happens. Should have given me an update at the very least, no? Especially since I told them I had another company that was willing to do it but I chose Barricella once they were able to meet the price. The least they could do was show some courtesy here and give me a heads up so I could plan accordingly. I live in NJ and drove to NY and canceled some plans expecting work to be done but they weren't even going to show up. Because it's in NYC and I needed the super of an apartment behind my home to allow for easy access for the removal of the tree, the super (who wasn't a live-in super) had to travel to the building only for me to tell them, face-to-face, Barricella wasn't going to show up. Nice. No apology, no nothing. Just a "We can't show up." Totally disregarding other people's time. I ended up just calling the other company and within a few days, they completed the job. No hassle, no back-and-forth nonsense. My brother has a home in Long Island and we've already set up an appointment to remove a handful of trees. Do better, seriously. Edit: To prove how even more unprofessional this business is, they sent me a message claiming I was posting a fake review. I responded by uploading a photo of our conversation. The owner is now claiming that the photo is also fake. Not only is this immature and unprofessional, it tells me they are taking zero accountability for their mistake and are doubling down on being unprofessional.

Save yourself and stay away from Todd Nappi and New York Plantings! I hired them in the spring of…read more2025 to repair the irrigation system on my terrace in Brooklyn. Todd suggested that they do plantings for me as well. I agreed and paid him in advance for the work. (I was an idiot.) Since that time our relationship has consisted of long emails from Todd promising to come by ... descriptions of trees and plants he said he would bring ... a few very brief visits by his "team" and copious flowery apologies. No matter what, Todd would not make appointments and he never delivered. My terrace is far from the oasis he promised and I paid for. It is a junkyard of empty planters and dead plants. DO NOT HIRE TODD NAPPI. He will break your heart.

The site required some advance prep work that upon excavation was going to require additional labor and service. After much back and forth we offered to pay the difference. Our agreement - which we prepaid for - was for an initial installation plus plantings for three seasons (summer, fall/winter, spring). He only did the summer planting and refused to honor the maintenance and remainder of the plantings. I would stay clear of this guy. He's unreliable and dishonest. FIVE NEGATIVE STARS!

Joe the owner was wonderful on meeting us to fit our budget and also meet our needs for what we had in mind. We had a general idea but with his expertise was able to put our ideas in place. Variety of perrenials, annuals, and tree with boxwoods were what really came into place. The whole crew was wonderful as well. Everything was on time and put in place very efficiently and cleaned up everything as well. Redoing the front yard makes it seem like a whole new house. Highly recommend them.

I knew it had the potential to be far better, despite its limited size. JC Landscaping immediately understood what I was looking for. The owner, Joe, came by to discuss my goals ahd he suggested a plan, along with an accurate cost estimate. The result included plants with varied colors, heights and bloom seasons. Work was completed in one day. I could not be more pleased with the service provided and am so proud of the results. I highly recommend JC Landscaping.  Note that photos reflect the garden the day after planting. As the plantings grow, I know the transformation will be even more beautiful.
