Excellent and quick follow through with a question I had. The plan is exactly what I was looking for to create a hosta and fern bed in a shady spot in the front yard. Plant substitutes suggested, which is helpful.

Response from Christie

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! I’m delighted that the Blue & Silver Shade Garden Plan was exactly what you were looking for. Creating beautiful, practical shade gardens can be challenging, so I’m especially happy to hear the planting layout, plant substitutions, and support were helpful. I hope your new hosta and fern garden becomes a favorite spot to enjoy for many years to come. Happy gardening!

It is hard to rate until we see how the planting works out.

Response from Christie

Thank you for your feedback. I did reach out privately after receiving your review to see if you had any questions or concerns about the plan, but unfortunately I did not receive a response. Because this is a digital garden design, its success depends on installation, site conditions, and plant care over time. The review appears to be based on uncertainty about future results rather than any specific issue with the plan itself. I am always happy to help customers with questions and provide support when contacted.
