  I have a a small walled courtyard in South Yarra that needed a transformation. Rob was not only up for the challenge he went above and beyond with enthusiasm and dedication. He came back on several occasions to collaborate ensuring the best pots and plants were chosen to achieve my vision. His communication was excellent keeping me informed at each stage. Nate was also great to work with polite and diligent. My courtyard is now a stylish low maintenance green space. I would highly recommend Rob and the Herbivore team.

  Prompt, economical and job done to spec and on time. Very happy with the work, which was preparation for the sale of a home. Robert knew what was needed and got it done. Would recommend.

  Rob and Nat were absolutely fantastic with my garden. Rob is so professional and listens to what you’re trying to achieve whilst being mindful of the health of your garden. Rob’s knowledge of the plants and trees within my garden was great, giving me great advice on how to keep it as low maintenance as possible. Rob and Nat were so polite and professional, couldn’t recommend them more. Can’t wait for summer in my garden now! Thank you both!
