I am extremely satisfied with the recent refurbishment of my pool & courtyard landscape by Ms. Charvet. The workmen were the utmost professional, skilled and friendly. Since I had a lot of work done all at once, the 20% off coupon for plant material helped keep the cost of the project under $2000. The plants she used were bought & brought directly from local Louisiana growers because of the better quality & certified Nursery stock that was free of any pest, insects and disease . Also, let it be know that I had gotten two other quotes for similar plants & materials & logistics (Apples to Apples wise shopping), Ms. Charvet quote was less money and provide excellent service and the design was exceptional. Since the quality of this job was superior to any others that I had hired in the past, I am hiring Ms. Charvet for my next home improvement project: Up Lights made in the USA that comes with a lifetime guaranteed. The products she proposed were more expensive made in the USA than what you find in big box stores that carry the cheap stuff that was made in China. My tip to anyone whom wants to become of customer of Ms. Charvet is: Looking for Quality at a reasonable price, then call Ms. Charvet at (504) 239-7700 and tell her you "heard about the 20% off coupon on Plants in a landscape design by Ms. Charvet.

Just want to give a 5 star rating for the Charvet's landscape team since I am 100% pleased with the quality of service & plants that were installed by Carolina Charvet & her crew she was on the job site during all phases & she even got her hands dirty.. My gardens have been transformed into a virtual paradise. The proposal, design & workmanship was professionally executed, detailed oriented and transparent so I knew exactly what the project would entail.
Carolina at 504.239.7700 and place your order for rare and unusual plants that aren't always in stock at other local garden centers or Big Box stores.....

Carolina Charvet is a Licensed Landscape Horticulturist. She designs, builds, and maintains quality landscapes for all of Charvet's Garden Center customers. She will go out to your property and meet with you about having her and her crew install landscapes by her designs. She guarantees her workmanship and the plants she plants from Charvet's Garden Center. I recommend that you call her @ 504.239.7700. I have been 100 % satisfied by the quality of her design capability, the health of the plants, superior quality of the materials that were used.

I observed a Landscaping Team laying down sod at the new Regions Bank(?) where Rally's used to be in Lakeview. The shirts worn by the workers were dark green and said "Charvet's" AND I noticed that the grass was YELLOW!

I have one experience with the Landscapers at Charvet's. This was a couple of years before Katrina, but I think it's a worthy example of the opeastions there because I dealt directly with the owner, Ms. Charvet on Clearview. My budget was $2k, which I thought was decent for the work required--only new plantings (amelia bushes and a small fruit tree), nothing removed. The "line" of the garden was refined, so a few mats of new sod were required. The sod was in poor condition when it arrived. I questioned it, but went ahead and accepted it because I didn't know my rights at the time and felt that I could nurse it back to health anyway. The only other beef I have was that a year later when I asked Ms. Charvet if someone could come by and remove the metal posts securing the trees (these are jammed in by machine and impossible to remove otherwise), she made feel as if it was my job and not hers to do, and that she was doing me a big favor by coming by to remove them.
