I spent approximately 500K with Southern Vista's Co for a pool that after a few years still does Not work properly. Mark suggested an auto fill feature that has never worked properly, overflows leaking onto the stone walkway, spilling into my yard, and causes cleaning issues with the pool. I spent approximately another 200K with them on stone patio, drainage, driveway and plantings. The one of the patio was never finished correctly leaving an end column that supports an upper deck partially unsupported. Im also concerned about how much the concrete in the patio has chipped and how much some of the rocks with the pool have cracked or chipped already. Another is with $10,000 worth of trees and plants installed last fall. The 9 big Evergreen type trees survived the winter but everything else died. When I called him this spring to tell him the evergreens didn't look & sent him pictures with some yellow & brown he was unconcerned. Now the evergreens are half brown and I fear they'll be dead within 6 months. Looks like that $10,000 was totally wasted. You'd think with 700K - 800K spent with Mark and his company he'd want to get it All right and appreciate your business. He has not done right by me.

There are just so many items of interest between the antiques, metal-work peices and plants.

The selection of landscaping plants here is remarkable and so wonderful to have right so close to the neighborhoods within the city of Columbia. Moreover, the staff person was very knowledgeable and friendly. He answered all our questions and made our visit to the nursery a success. We look forward to returning soon as we improve our landscape.

Had a great experience with these professionals. They really know everything about the plants and work very closely with you to select the correct one. Could not be happier with the service I had today.

My husband and I purchased a concrete fountain base a week ago and were told it had no issues, cracks, etc. When we got it home and had our landscaper offload it , he found 3 large cracks on the top edge going down into the fountain base. Today we stopped by Southern Vista and told them of the dilemma. I showed them the pictures of the cracks. We were very surprised when the owner said they informed us of the one crack before the sale and the base wouldn't hold water. Not So. Now, WHO would buy a fountain base that wouldn't hold water when. Doesn't make sense to us??????????? BEWARE of shopping at Southern Vista because they don't stand by their products. We got no satisfaction at all.

Great service, knowledgeable folks with great advice on selecting the right plants every time. I have two pots of plants that have been going string for 3 years. Just picked up some new plants for another spot. Will look forward to watching the latest plants blossom.
