We only had 45-mins left in our time in this area as we had a family thing to go to. So we went through this park rather quickly. But even so, I have a lots and lots of pictures. Flowers in different shades of reds, oranges, pinks, purples, yellows and white against the green lush trees, leaves and ground covering. Well marked gravel paths, plenty of seating, a large open grassy area of family picnics and space for children to run around. Our time here was well spent. And you, I had to stop back in to the gift shop and pick up a magnet. We didn't see many staff members including the groundskeepers but the cashier at the gift shop was friendly and helpful. Free parking and entry fee into this botanical park is a reasonable $12 per adult, no military discount, there is senior and children discounts available. Highly recommend if you're in the Federal Way area.

I found this botanical garden out of chance on a Sunday afternoon because my family wanted…read moresomewhere to walk around. Anyway, I didn't know this garden was located in the empty Weyerhaeuser building area. You should know that the garden is divided into two sections: the bonsai section is 100% donation. The other side, which contains all the Rhododendron plants, requires admission fees. I visited the garden expecting it to fully bloom in different color schemes like the Botanical Garden at the UW area, but everything was in green color. My husband mentioned that we'd need to revisit this garden but in the spring time, when the flowers would fully bloom then. Check out my photos for the garden view. I enjoyed the Bonsai section because we got to see the carpentry art from a dude, who basically built everything from wood sticks. The exhibit was cool to look at, in addition to the Bonsai tree collection displays. Now, I want a Bonsai tree myself!

Sol Landscaping was one of the companies who responded to my Yelp request for a big one-time cleanup and also a contract for once a month maintenance. Marisol and one of her workers showed up for the estimate and although there was a bit of a language issue, she seemed honest and sincere. She saw what needed to be done and gave me an estimate of about $3000. I thought the price was fair and hired them to do the spring cleanup. The maintenance price she quoted was $300 per visit. Before cleanup day, I marked with fluorescent paint the weedy areas and shrubs that need to be pruned out to make things easier, so there would be no mistakes (none of the workers spoke English, although I think they could understand it). The cleanup itself went very smoothly and they left the properties spotless. However, getting them to come out for a maintenance visit went the opposite way. Marisol wouldn't commit, and I called and texted several times to make an appointment. Finally she said they could fit me in the next day and I said okay. But no one showed up. When I called again, she said someone had gotten sick so they'd try again in a couple days. Again, a no-show. I finally gave up. It was apparent they were just happy to do the one big job and move on. I wanted to give two stars TBH for the frustration. But they did do the one big cleanup well. Unfortunately I am still on the hunt for a skilled landscaping maintenance company.

He was able to come out quickly for a quote and listened for what I wanted, asked questions if anything was unclear, and provided suggestions I didn't even think of. Merced and his team came out and did the entire project in 6 days, exactly as promised. Their team showed up early and worked hard the entire day. They always made sure to tidy up their tools at the end of the day too. I was very impressed with their detail of work and how well they cleaned up the entire job site when they were done. We are super happy with our new backyard and are excited that we don't have to shuffle a sprinkler head around the lawn this summer. Highly recommend A&M Maintenance for all your landscaping needs. Look forward to hiring them again.

* HIGHLY RECOMMENDED * if you want to save time and money! :)…read more I sent out a service request with a few pictures for bids on leaf raking (front yard, back yard, side walk, driveway) around my mom's house. A&M was one of the first who responded and with a very competitive quote. There are providers who would only do in-person quotes which would waste a lot of my time if I were to have to drive there just for a bid. Some quotes are straight-up dishonest and overpriced. Compared to these, A&M stands out as the best option, and I've have no regrets hiring them! His crew came out and did a fantastic job without supervision! To summarize, A&M were able to deliver service that I'd consider efficient without wasting time going back-and-forth. - quote accurately and competitively based on pictures and details - quick and easy scheduling - effective messaging and communication - getting the job done - legit invoicing (through Intuit) I am definitely bookmarking A&M Landscape for my future needs.

Five stars for Brian and Marcos from Urban Roots Landscaping!…read more I can't say enough good things about the transformation they brought to my yard. These two showed up ready to tackle a jungle--and they delivered. They took down towering blackberry bushes that had swallowed up my flower beds, revealing the rosebushes, blueberries, and fig tree that hadn't seen in ages. They cleared mountains of soggy leaves, gave every edge a crisp, clean cut, and--unearthed my long-lost patio pavers from beneath layers of weeds! Their work was thorough, efficient, and clearly done with care. My yard feels like it got a fresh start, and I'm genuinely excited to spend time outside again. If you're looking for landscaping pros who know how to reclaim a space and make it shine, Brian and Marcos are your guys.

Their quote was fair and competitive -- ultimately I decided to move forward with someone who came directly recommended by a friend, but Van's pricing was absolutely in line with the market and within about $100 of my lowest quote out of five different providers I interviewed. The scope included a full spring cleanup of a heavily overgrown yard, including mowing, pruning, weeding, pressure washing, bark installation, and repairing a distressed gravel pathway. Their pricing was very much on par with the other companies I met - for that large service, as well as ongoing bi-weekly yard care. They were on time, responsive via text when confirming the verbal quote and providing additional pricing details, and overall very kind, transparent, and fair throughout the process. Even though I went a different direction for this particular project, I would absolutely feel comfortable recommending them in the future. The experience was easy, professional, and very competitively priced.

Our yard was a challenge, to say the least, full of weeds, an old lawn and a sprinkler system that needed updating. Tony came by, listened to what we wanted, and came up with a vision for how to make the yard beautiful, more efficient and with less maintenance. We were amazed at how hard he and his team worked each day. They cleared out the weeds, trimmed bushes and trees, prepared the old lawn with top soil and new seed, set up perimeter borders, replaced valves and set up sprinklers the right way to ensure exact coverage so that water isn't wasted. They spread new mulch and decorative rocks and gravel that helped map out the yard into defined areas. Tony has experience and it shows in the level of attention and detail. They also did an great job of cleanup afterwards. Landscaping is not cheap, and if done correctly, enhances your home value and makes you feel good to be in your back yard. Highly recommend Alvin's landscaping, especially Tony and his team.
