Fine Gardeners

At Marini Fine Gardeners, we cater to the unique needs and desires of our discerning clients in Brookline, Needham and Newton. From container gardens to unique garden designs, we pay close attention to detail that this sets us apart from a more traditional "landscaper." We consider it an honor to work on your property so we treat it with the respect and care that it deserves. We know that each garden is as unique as its owner so never take a cookie-cutter approach. Paul at Fine Gardeners has been assisting me with Pruning, maintenance of trees and shrubs and plantings for several years.

As caring and skilled gardeners, we love to bring homeowners' properties to life. We design and install gardens and landscapes to beautify leisure spaces, soften the lines of hardscapes, and create personal spaces for diversion and rejuvenation. We also do garden makeovers by revamping an area that suits your style. There will be wonderful sights and scents to take in, without a doubt, but gardens and other planting can have very real functional benefits as well. Trees, shrubs and beds can be carefully placed to flow traffic around a landscape, hide unwelcome views, or signal a spot to just pause and enjoy the beauty of the space.

We provide weekly, bi-weekly or monthly visits for most of our clients. There are those who we visit only once or twice per season. We cater to the needs of our clients and never take a cookie-cutter approach as each property is unique. The demands of the garden dictate and guide the course of action we will take each time we are on your property. For example, the pruning of your trees and shrubs are done during the appropriate season to ensure plant health and optimum flowering and growth. We pay close attention to detail to keep your gardens in their prime throughout the year.

We use horticulturally-correct pruning techniques in order to maintain the plant's health and habit. Through selective pruning, we enhance the natural form of ornamental trees and shrubs up to 25' in height by the use of hand-pruning tools. Shrubs that are overgrown can often be restored to their proper size and scale in the garden through restorative pruning, as opposed to removing them from their location. Even shrubs that have been frequently sheared to within an inch of their life, can often be brought back to their natural, healthy form.
