Fine Gardening, February 2023 Issue
It is a cohesive space that blends seamlessly with the architecture of the home. It tells the unique story of the land and of those who live there. It contains a spark of magic that beckons people to connect to it, explore and experience it. Such a space is authentic in its artistry by being so much more than the sum of its parts. It is a serene, nurturing place for life to happen. Building these gardens is our craft and our passion.
I'm honored to be the recipient of a 2024 Perennial Plant Association Landscape Design Award of Merit for my NC mountain garden, Rhodwood.
Jay is an artist and a pleasure to work with. He and his team completed a huge landscaping project for me: full front and back yard. I'm completely in love with it! Jay got my vision from the start (and added so much along the way). The work was done quickly, with Jay on site and in contact every step. It came in under budget too! You cannot go wrong hiring Sifford Design. (My photos don't do it justice)

Highly recommend! Jay listens to what the client needs and delivers solutions. He communicated well, pivoted when necessary, and provided solid estimates.

Jay has provided us with a landscape that has improved 100% in the brief time he has worked with us. The expanded natural areas where he has worked his magic helps us to relax and feel connected with our home in a whole new way. Our neighbors also love to come by and enjoy the new nature that is now part of our lives. We are more than happy with the expansion of all of nature in our yard and are excited to move forward with the next areas of the project,

Jay just completed a redesign of our front landscape and we could not be more pleased. We've been in our home for 36 years and hadn't altered the landscape since the house was built. We could never have conceptualized the design that Jay created for us. His team worked professionally and tirelessly to complete the work faster that we could have imagined and the total cost came in under budget. We are now having our driveway redone. I post photos when it's completed. Thanks again Jay!

Recently, Jay Sifford designed and implemented a new front garden for our southern home. He implemented a cheerful arrangement of diverse plants offering texture, color and blooms for high impact surrounding the entrance to our home. His crew strategically planted and carefully placed the new plantings according to Jay's designs, working cheerfully and focused on tasks. Jay's design elevated my original vision, adding small boulders around the entrance to the porch. The completed project was a successful transformation. Jay displayed incredible knowledge of plants and design arrangements adding curves as opposed to straight lines as well as many shades of green. He has an instinctive ...
