Client reviews: Debbie Ford - (4 gardens) La Jolla & San Diego, California

"Koby's Garden Alchemy is the best I've ever found. I've redone four houses and worked with many garden designers but when I was introduced to Koby Hall six years ago, his work literally took my breath away. He's an artist, a designer, and in my opinion, a creative genius when it comes to plants. He prides himself on finding the most unique plants for each person's needs. After just moving again and asking Koby to help me move all my plants to my new home and buy a few more, I am blown away by his magic. He is honest, reliable and responsive. I am in awe and in appreciation of his talent. If you're like me, you've worked with a lot of people in the design and construction business who are disappointing. I can't imagine being disappointed using this work"

"Koby, On Saturday we went to . . . nursery just to wander and because it is something we have often enjoyed. It's a fun nursery. But the truth is, we were so disappointed . . .  nothing special, nothing even tempting. Everything was ordinary. With so many exceptional pots and plants here at home . . . you have spoiled the 'nursery experience' for us. Thanks a lot!  Seriously . . . thank you. Our garden is wonderful."

"Just wanted to let you know that there were many compliments on the garden. It looked it's very best last Saturday. The front garden is so lush and, of course, in full bloom. The back looked so fresh and open with the paths open and all . . . Even Oz, who seldom has a comment, said you did a "magnificent job".

"We returned home Friday evening to find the beautiful new lights had been installed. I love them. They're just right.  Koby---You've created a masterpiece. I can't imagine what more the garden would need! 

 . . .The front garden has been beautiful all Spring. There are constant compliments from passersby."  

"Along came Koby,  working with his close friend Mother Nature, he created a garden that was diverse and beautiful in the atria that is entertaining and pleasing tenants and visitors even today, years and years later. 

Koby’s work speaks for itself.  He is a Master at bringing Mother Nature’s pride and joy to us, his customers."

"I’ve been fortunate to work with Koby Hall’s Garden Alchemy for over 30 years in 3 different homes with gardens. His artistic and creative design eye, attention to detail, encyclopedic plant knowledge and professionalism make him a pleasure to work with. Most important the resulting garden is always stunning and much more that expected. He also works magic with lighting. My most recent downsize to a ground floor corner condo with ample garden space is a testament to his ability to transform the ordinary to extra-ordinary! I believe there are photos of this project here. I highly recommend Koby to anyone looking for a garden that is a cut above the expected and will garner compliments for years."

"Oh, my gosh. I've never seen such variety.
It's gorgeous . . . Everything looks terrific!
You are the master of color."

"I do want you to know how much joy I get as I look outside in any direction and it's even better when I can find the time to be out there to really focus on it or take others on a mini-tour of our much-improved landscape."

"Our water bill is down 50% from the same time last year! 

Aesthetic enjoyment is up over 100%."
