Michele was wonderful! Professionalism at its best. She listens carefully and creatively puts your ideas
together. She answers your questions promptly throughout the design process. I would definitely ask
Michele for help on another project!

This is the second time I've used Michele for my yard. This time to design a huge front yard that I couldn't wrap my head around to even know where to begin. It was a hodge podge of pine trees, palm trees planted too close to the house and ugly rocks. Once again I am so pleased with the design she came up with, giving the front of the house a cohesive look and making it a show piece. I love that she puts the plants and trees in shared folder so that I can see what she's thinking. Michele went over the reasoning behind what plant goes where and how they all fit into the design to ultimately give me the result I'm looking for. The communication was great, she always responded within a day.
I have started planting and I can already see a huge difference. I can't wait for it to be done! I will definitely use Michele again for my next project. She knows her stuff and knows how to design.
Thank you Michele for another fantastic design!!

Thank you for the opportunity to work with you again and thank you for the review! Large spaces such as the one in your front yard can feel overwhelming, and so require that "master plan" to pull it all together, even if the install goes in phases. I'm so glad to hear you are pleased with the results so far. I too look forward to seeing it in the months and years to come!:-)
Michelle is fabulous to work with. She has a deep understanding of the Las Vegas desert. She knows which plants are best for low water use, native, attract local birds, and how to pick plants so the garden blooms throughout the season and year. The design she created for our yard is beautiful. I highly recommend Michelle!

Michele was great to work with! She understood my objectives and delivered them perfectly. She has great design sense, and is very knowledgeable about plants, planting needs, watering, sunlight, etc. (which in Las Vegas is very challenging). I can't wait to see our yard grow into a gorgeous desert landscape year by year (yes it's possible!).

I loved working with Michele from Perennial Garden Consultants! I have a high retaining wall/planter that gets direct sunlight in the Summer and I have had a hard time getting plants to live. In the past I have wasted money hirng landscape companies assuming they knew what they were doing when it came to planting the right plants in the right place. This time I used a bit of wisdom and hired Michelle to come out and advise me on what to put up in my heat blasted retaing wall/planter. She was extremely professional, knowledgeable, patient, and timely with her design. I am looking forward to implementing her design! When it is completed I will post pics! Thank you Michele!!

I had a hodgepodge of a backyard and did not know where to even start. Michele helped me see the vision and transform my backyard to a paradise! I learned a lot during the process, which plants that would survive in the desert and also look colorful year around. She did a walkthrough at the end where we walked around the backyard and talked about the plants and where they would go and why. That was my favorite part as it made it so much easier to understand and see the whole picture. Michele truly takes into consideration the perspective of the plant and where it will thrive the most as well as coordinating the esthetics of the yard.
I will definitely use her again for my front yard. The process takes awhile so plan ahead but the final product is extremely well thought out with schematics and a legend which makes it easy to follow.

I attempted to employ a known nursery to come up with a design and plan for my space. Whatever I said, they were going to do. Not good because they only wanted to sell me their services without really listening to what I needed and wanted.
Michelle is the consummate professional. She arrives on time, is very knowledgeable and is very easy to work with. Her interpretation of my thoughts, as far as native plants and design, were spot on. I can’t wait to get started and the hummingbirds can’t wait either.

I have tried several times to find a landscape company that knows about plants specific to the Las Vegas area. I was thrilled when
I met Michele with Perennial Garden Consultants. I wanted a more desert friendly , natural looking landscape. I gave her my
vague ideas and she ran with the project. Michele was always willing to answer any questions, give me advice about plants,
and do a little hand holding. The project involved a large back yard with two different areas and 2 garden beds beside the house.
I love the designs and even more important for me, I love how they feel. Calm, peaceful, gorgeous.
If you want a beautiful yard ask Perennial Garden Consultants.

I really enjoyed working with Michele. She was very responsive and accessible throughout the project. After the initial consultation she provided an incredibly thorough proposal outlining every goal, idea and need I had mentioned. It was so helpful to see my vision reflected back as it clarified the priorities of the project. The design process was interactive at the conceptual phase. She shared pictures of plants and we reviewed the design over email and on the phone. She incorporated a cactus I was fond of and found a substitute for a tree I didn’t like. She created a beautiful design and provided all the documentation I needed to submit to my HOA and to hire a contractor for planting. I will definitely have her come out when we plant for any last minute adjustments. It was hard to find someone that was interested in creating a natural, layered landscape of native flowering plants instead of a hardscape. While we haven’t planted yet her sketches gave a good idea of what to expect. She made the process very easy and enjoyable and if I have to make HOA changes or have questions I would feel comfortable contacting her (in fact, I’d look forward to it). I would recommend Perennial for anyone interested in native, drought tolerant landscape design. Really beautiful work that I can’t wait to enjoy through all four seasons!

She was able to combine some of our preferences, existing plants and structure into a cohesive design that will greatly enhance our unusual lot. We are looking forward to her assistance and guidance throughout our project. Highly recommend Michele! She will bring your landscape to life!

Working with Michele was a pleasure. Her ability to bring our ideas (which at times must have felt like a moving target) to life and her patient guidance of both design and plant selection were everything we could have hoped for. She is knowledgeable, but even more than that she has the ability guide and instruct you as her client. We cannot recommend her enough.

Michele is fantastic! She designed an entirely new landscape for our backyard, courtyard, and front yard and it looks amazing. She is definitely an expert on plants - what will grow where, water conditions, etc. And she also has this great creativity. She came up with a super cute way to incorporate a kids' play area into our design which was darling. She would deliver these beautiful color hand-drawn renderings of the designs that really made the design process easy as we could easily visualize the final product. She was a great listener and really worked with us through lots of revisions to the design. Highly recommended!

Have to admit that in my whole gardening life, I was totally stumped on how to create a lush entryway to my new/older home in Sun City, Las Vegas. My husband and I have created beautiful landscapes at many of our homes over the years. We have owned seven homes in the US and overseas. I did not want the succulents or the usual palm trees that are seen on the street here. I wanted something private, overgrown and unusual for my courtyard space as this home has been a true downsizing as well as a labor of love during the Covid pandemic. I think Michele understood this and helped me to create this, at least on paper, for now. I can see how it will grow over time, and how it will leave a lasting legacy to those who live in this wonderful house , long after I am gone. The design was accomplished with an eye to color, texture, fragrance and almost, I would say, a love for randomness and dreaming, which is my heart and soul. Thank-you Michele. You listened to my heart and I appreciate your soul. Carolyn and Mike

We wanted to work with Perennial Garden Consultants because, as first-time home owners, we are a bit clueless when it comes to landscaping. Our backyard has grass that has been neglected and causes our dog to break out in rashes (she's allergic). The yard needed to be redesigned to be more colorful, private, and easy to maintain. Michele was very attentive and addressed all of our concerns — from the comfort of our dog to accessibility concerns. The design she developed is beautiful and we can't wait to have it implemented!

Michele was great to work with. I wanted specific desert plants that would be great for pollinators, low water usage, have 4 season colors as well as provide some privacy from our neighbors. She worked our idea within our budget and delivered on everything we were hoping for. I'm a bit of detail oriented person and she was able to accommodate my specific details.

We were very impressed with Michele's landscape design for our front, back and side areas of our home. She was easy to talk to, easy to bounce opinions off. She was also the very first person to fully understand our style and to work and create something we can hopefully realize in our outdoor space. We would recommend her to anyone for her professionalism and her ability to deliver on promises, while also managing to keep us grounded and not too lofty with our ideas for the Las Vegas climate. We hope to work with her again and oversee the transformation of the space when we are able to begin the work. The finished design is beautiful and we treasure it.

We hired Michele to do the landscape design for our backyard. We moved from a very green city and wanted to create a backyard oasis that would reflect our love of the outdoors while still being sustainable in the desert climate. Michele has completed her design and we have received approval from our HOA to implement it, so that feels great. We have just begun the process of doing the actual work of installment, so this review does not reflect a fully finished product. However, I'm very happy with the design that Michele did for us and know I would not have been able to come up with anything close to this myself. The back and forth of designing the backyard did take some time, a bit longer than I expected although we did make changes along the way. Michele's process is all done by hand instead of a computer program, which is also different than I expected, so changes are not easily made if they are requested out of process. Michele has also been helpful in providing us with some more specific answers we need for our project and budget. I look forward to completing our project and seeing her drawing come to life!

Comment from Perennial Garden Consultants:
Thank you for your review! It was a pleasure working with you on your project. I'm afraid it did take longer than expected, thanks to COVID-19. Unfortunately, when schools closed after the second week of March, with my son home and child care unavailable, many people--myself included--found that work suddenly became more challenging, as I had communicated with you in an email around that time thanking you for your patience.
Being clear on expectations is a crucial part of providing excellent service, which is why I bring my portfolio of hand-drafted past work to each initial consultation. Although I am flattered that the quality of my work may have led you to believe the drawings I shared with you and your husband were created using Auto CAD, I thought I had clearly stated that my work is done manually, as it was also stated in the contract. Your feedback is appreciated as it helps me to improve my services, and going forward I will make it a point to communicate more effectively with clients to better meet their expectations!

I was so impressed working with Michelle , after chatting a few minutes she totally understood what I was looking to do in my back yard. Even with the negatives ( limited space and sun exposure ) she came up with a beautiful plan I am very excited to start . Every plant she chose was a winner !

I found Michelle, Perennial Gardens, in August 2019 when I was trying to find a landscape artist for my courtyard. I told her I wanted something with a Wow factor because it was the entrance to my home. Michelle came to my house, asked what I was looking for, took pictures, and made several suggestions. She then prepared a landscape design that astonished me – it was truly spectacular! Most of the plants in the design I had never heard of, much less seen in any landscape anywhere, (I grew up in Las Vegas) and yet they are all acclimated to the desert climate here. They are gorgeous colors with a variety of textures. To add to my good fortune, Michelle installed her design. She was meticulous in preparing the soil, placing the plants correctly, and then ensuring the irrigation would meet each plant’s need. She also stuck with the plan we agreed on, opting to wait for the specific plants, rather than substituting other plants into the design.
Michelle is a true landscape artist and incredibly knowledgeable about what will grow and flourish here. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a landscape design that is unique and exquisitely beautiful.

My landscape design has been completed and although it is not yet installed I am very excited about seeing it finalized. It is rare to find someone in the business of design who listens to all of your wants, needs and concerns and then incorporates them in the actual design. Michele did all of that and when she gave me the original proposal she even noted things I had forgotten I had mentioned. She is a great communicator and was available and responsive to all calls and emails.
The use of the houzz website meant I could see plant recommendations and I could also provide her with things I liked that she could then possibly incorporate in the design. Her knowledge of plants and their mature size meant that I will not be over planting and then butchering the same growing plants later to keep them small enough to fit the area. This also means I will spend less money on plants because .. guess what... they grow !
If you need a landscape designer, I recommend Michele highly. I will try to update with photos when the project is completed.

Michele from Perennial Garden Consultants was able to take a kernel of an idea I had about a Moorish Garden based on a TV show episode and run with it in a unique and creative manner in creating my backyard landscape design plan. Her extensive knowledge of regional flora will also ensure that my design is sustainable once it has been planted and can endure our hot desert climate. Michele works closely with you to achieve your vision, and her professionalism, creativity and organization make the process easy and fun. The practical touches such as the inclusion of detailed planting instructions, and the separate list of plants provided will also make it easy for me to execute the plan. I would highly recommend her work if you are interested in dramatically transforming your home landscape for a fair and reasonable fee.

I hired Perennial Garden Consultants (Michele Chambliss) to create a container garden on the patio of my rented home. She did a fantastic job, and actually came in a little under the budget we had to work with. She has a very artistic eye, and the combination of plants and colorful containers is perfect to create a green and pleasant little oasis that is visible from the living room when my blinds are open. I highly recommend Michele to anyone looking to beautify their outdoor space.

Michele was extremely helpful with our landscape update. We are newer to the desert, and really didn't know what plants to use, or how to place them.

My wife and I enjoyed working with Michele at Perennial Garden Consultants. She was very thorough and methodical when creating her design for us. Michele was able to guide us through the process and provide incite as we went along. Her knowledge of plant selection was impressive along with her wealth of experience in design she brings. We have a large yard and Michele was able to create different areas for us to enjoy. She was able to give us a design with lots of color and texture using plants that would thrive in Las Vegas. At the end, we had a design that we loved and can’t wait to begin construction.

Thank you Freddie for your review! I really enjoyed working with you and your wife on your project!
When I decided to redo the landscaping throughout our property after the removal of some trees (due to various issues), I started my research on Houzz. I put together an ideabook of exteriors and plantings that I found interesting, but when it came to actually determining what would work best for my purposes I decided to bring in a professional. Next stop - Perennial Garden Conusultants.
I found Michele and her company here on Houzz, and after taking a look at the reviews and photos, I contacted her about my project. She responded very quickly and requested we meet so she could get an idea of the scope of the project and what I wanted from the design. She measured the entire property and we discussed my desires - from replacement trees to plants that would draw pollinators back to my yard. It was all so smooth and easy!
Once we agreed on terms, I invited her to my landscaping ideabook here on Houzz and she used that to create a couple more books through which we could share photos and ideas. She added photos, I added photos, and we commented on each of them - why would this plant work, pros and cons, etc. I'm the type who wants to be involved in a project so I'm not left with a bunch of questions at its conclusion. Michele was happy and enthusiastic about my input, and the entire experience was a pleasure.
Throughout the project, Michele emailed me preliminary sketches for my review and input. Once we agreed on the sketches for the various areas of my property, she prepared final blueprints and provided multiple copies I could share with my landscaper and any other professionals.
Michele was outstanding to work with from beginning to end. She was willing to allow me to be as involved as I wanted to be, answered emails and responded to Houzz comments quickly, and created a beautiful and workable design (per my regular landscaper) that will give our local birds, bees, and butterflies plenty to enjoy, Her knowledge of landscape design and the types of plants that work in our desert area were exactly what I wanted/needed. I had the goal, and Michele/Perennial Garden Consultants provided the blueprint to get me there. I look forward to staying in contact with Michele as her landscape design is translated from the page to my yard. Thanks, Michele!

PGC was very professional during all phases of design. They listened to our likes and dislikes, and came up with a beautiful landscape design that we are sure to enjoy for years and years. Thank you Michele for all your time and patience.

We hired Perennial Garden Consultants to come up with a low-maintenance design for our front yard. Everything we had put in on our own either died or looked terrible! Michele eased my anxiety by outlining the steps we would need to take to make it happen. She listened to our concerns, was very knowledgeable about desert plants, and we loved her design! Now I’m confident we’ll have the nice-looking yard we want without issues down the road. Thanks Michele!
