They created building code violations with the nearly 100 tons of dirt (6-12" depth) of soil removed across the back of our yard. They were supposed to fix drainage in our yard, they made it worse. The sketch was a drawing and not to scale... Especially after they removed so much dirt... When questioned, only answers given to us were not able to be backed up by industry standards. All four professionals we had take a look after the disaster was started shook their head and one was so disgusted squeezed us in between his projects that fall so we wouldn't have to go through winter with the mess Schonheit created. They might be fine with plants, they should stick with plants and stay away from hardscape & definitely don't hire them for larger projects. read more

Unreliable. Several missed installation dates in 2023. Said it was do to rain. Very dry spring and summer in 2023. No follow up when job was finally installed in July 2023. Crew was very hard working so problem was with management, in my opinion. I delayed in doing a review to see how plantings would do over time. Every day watering was necessary to start. Marigolds did not survive. Should have emerged this spring so they obviously planted annuals instead of what was ordered. read more

Last week I called Schonheit Gardens regarding purchasing topsoil. On Friday, I personally went to the garden center to finalize delivery for this morning--the earlier the better. On weekends, I alternate caring for my elderly parents and an elderly aunt, who live in towns two hours apart; I have no free time. I took the day off work today to devote time to my own yard. I waited. And waited. And waited. At almost noon, I finally called to ask when I could expect the soil. Initially, they couldn't find my order; when they did, it was determined that they would not be able to deliver today. "We normally don't do business like this;" they simply wanted to reschedule delivery. If that delivery came with eight hours of manpower that I lost today, I would accept; with no mention of compensation for my lost wages, I would rather do business with a more reliable company. read more

After calling multiple greenhouses and nurseries in my area, I was not able to find what I was looking for. I entered a search on Google Maps and found Schonheit Gardens was about an hour from my location. After seeing the many 5 star ratings and positive comments, I gave them a call. I was able to work with Linnzi over the phone. She was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly! I was able to order everything I needed over the phone and it was organized for pick up at a later date! I would DEFINITELY purchase items from Schonheit again! They deserve far beyond a 5 star rating! read more

If I had rated Schonheit a few months ago, I'd have given them 5 stars. I've shopped there since 2002 and the plants have been terrific. So, I hired them to landscape my yard, for a cost of just over $4k. They finished in July, but by the end of the month, 3 plants obviously had a virus or something and were dying (they are now dead). When I contacted Schonheit, I was told that none of the perennials (90% of those planted) were guaranteed, NOT EVEN TO LAST THE FIRST SUMMER. I'm not a new gardener. I watered the plants religiously, kept them weeded. I am disappointed, angry, and sick at the thought that I invested over $4000 in my landscaping, it might not come back next year, and Schonheit won't guaranteed any of it. I will never shop there again. read more

My husband and I were referred to Susie Drahos Froehle at Schonheit Gardens by our landscape architect last fall. We have been so impressed with her professionalism, knowledge, passion and project management skills. In just a few minutes of talking with Susie, it's clear that she really knows her stuff and truly loves what she does. Her crew did a beautiful job with the hardscaping of our yard last fall; they were timely, courteous and precise. She has been an invaluable resource in helping us finalize our plant selections and it's obvious that she puts much consideration into the needs and goals of her clients to give thoughtful recommendations. I would not hesitate to recommend Susie to anyone. read more

I have purchased perennials and shrubs in 2018 and 2019 all of them have looked and done great. The people here are very helpful and even loaded me with mulch after normal loading hours on a Saturday. They have also done some landscaping at my house and while I was not home my wife was and said all the landscapers were very polite. They even took a minute to greet and pet our dogs. read more

A bit pricey but their plants are beautiful. I got a rosebush from them- a hope for humanity rose. And its a stunning star in my front yard. Full of large red blooms and its only been 2 months since I got it. Also got some hydrangeas and they are incredibly large and beautiful. Especially in the spring, I keep going there sometimes to just look at their flowers :) The staff is very friendly and nice. And i love the kitty who naps at the cash counter and is more than happy to get a few neck rubs. read more

After meeting with several landscaping companies, I hired Schonheit Gardens, to complete our landscaping project this past fall (2016). Their prices were competitive, they had high quality plants and they were very knowledgeable and willing to work with us on design and pricing. Unlike a few of the other companies that required a hefty fee for the design portion of the project, Schonheit was willing to do a rough draft free of charge and put the "design fee" into the landscaping. We put in several new perennial beds a few trees, an arbor/swing and a stone patio with a fire pit. Susie Drahos Froehle was the point person on the project and she came up with a beautiful design that encompassed what I was looking for to transform my yard at a price point that was within my budget. She had a lot of enthusiasm and creative ideas and I trusted her to make my vision become a reality. She and her team also helped to design and create the beautiful hardscaping/patio and firepit that have truly transformed our yard. I can't begin to describe how impressed I was with the crew that completed the work. Everyone was SO friendly, very professional, and super knowledgeable about the care and placement of all of the plants. They were on time, worked hard, and brought to fruition the plan Susie and I had created. They were all open to feedback and suggestions (I'm sure I offered more than they'd like) and even though we had one large snafu (as I'm sure happens with all large projects), Susie was great about working with me to get the issue resolved. I found her to be very honest and fair. I highly recommend using Schonheit Gardens for all of your landscaping needs. read more

This summer we had Schonheit Gardens create two large, perennial beds at our new home. We chose this company after driving by some of their prior landscaping projects, giving us the assurance that Schonheit Gardens was the best choice for our job. If you are looking for a landscape company that is knowledgeable, creative, able to select perennials with seasonal interest, varied textures and complimentary colors, you will be so pleased with Schonheit Gardens. Without reservation we can recommend them and plan to use them for additional projects we have planned in the future. read more

We were very happy with the patio Schonheit put in for us this summer. The final product is beautiful and we enjoyed the process. They were immensely helpful in planning the patio, taking into consideration many things we hadn't considered yet. We were most impressed with their professionalism while on our property. They kept the areas as clean as possible (tons of rain while they were here!), were friendly and safe with my children, and simply good people. We have recommended them to others and will continue to do so in the future. Looking forward to using our patio for many many years! read more
