Hi Jodi. I wanted to let you know that we are VERY happy with the landscaping
job you and your crew did. After 10 years, we finally got the yard we wanted! We really
like the design you chose and will let you know later if it's as low maint as we needed
(due to having 3 garden areas to take care of rather than the 2 that we visualized).
I especially appreciated how your crew cleaned up the site each day.
Many thanks for doing a superb job on our front yard! We are happy customers.

p.s. for free advertising, we suggest putting out a Morningstar sign on the lawn that
you're working on. We would be proud to sport such a sign in our yard.
Landscaper
in Southwest Austin, Loved My Results
Posted by Crystal (CrystalKilpatrick.com) on Tuesday, October 20th, 2009 at 12:09am.
We just had new stonework done to our flowerbeds at our home in Southwest
Austin. We had to immediately find a good landscaper to complete the job. After meeting
with several people, and going over plans and prices, one stood out from the group. She is
Jodi Phillips with Morningstar Landscaping. She made the process easy and effortless, and
came up with a reasonable budget.
I was impressed with her because whe did not try to overprice the job, like many others
did. She showed up on time, and was quick to email with the bid. When we came home to see
the results, we were so happy!
I think that she works all over Austin, our job was in Southwest Austin, but she travels
to all areas.
Yes, I absolutely love working with Jodi. She's so very creative and has
such an eye for what can be. I talked to 3 people and she was only one
that shared my vision for what I wanted my house/front-yard to look
like. Then, she brought over several very, very creative folks who
helped me choose paint color and stone. All my neighbors have RAVED
over the changes. My parents loved it--and they hate EVERYTHING!
You're very welcome to come look at the stone work--my address is: (Private) Get out and
look around if you'd like.
We're putting in a sprinkler next week and we're landscaping (if we
don't get rained out) a few weeks afterwards. She's going to take me to
the Lady Bird Wildflower Center to get some Texas Natives. I can't
wait!
I think you'll be very, very happy with anything she does.
Good luck!
JP
We are so pleased with Jodi's
work. This past summer Jodi and her team completely re-landscaped our front and back
yards. We spent over 20,000 and our back yard looks like a Oasis. Jodi and her team also
made our street appeal more attractive. Her team was so good that atleast three of our
neighbors have since used her services.
Her team was always on time, polite and considerate of our schedules and never disrupted
our neighbors quality of life
We highly recommend Jodi for any landscape and stone work you may want.
We also have no problem with future customers coming over and seeing Jodi's work, we only
ask that you go through Jodi who will contact us and set up a time to bring you by.

Member Comments:
We were referred to Jodi by our patio contractor after our original landscaper fell
through. She came out within a few days of my phone call for the consultation, and managed
to work us into the schedule the next week due to a delay on another project she was
working on. I enjoyed working with Jodi. She spent a lot of time understanding the type of
plants and trees that I liked, and what we were hoping to do with our project. She sent me
an estimate and project plan within 24 hours of our first meeting, and adjusted the plant
list and scope of work to fit within our budget. We ordered 2 large shade trees, and she
sent both of them back to the nursery when they arrived because she didn't like the way
they looked. The nursery sent two different trees the next day, and they were perfect.
Jodi and her team finished the entire project within 2 1/2 days, and left the year clean
and beautiful. We are very pleased with the job she did, and would highly recommend her to
everyone.
