Our flower installation job minimum is $450.00. We can generally give you an estimate over the telephone if we know the dimensions of your bed.
If we must visit the site we charge a minimum consultation fee of $45.00 to estimate all new flower jobs. This fee is based on the amount of time required to generate a professional estimate. It can go over the $45.00 minimum if a tremendous amount of design time is required. If we installed flowers for you last season, there will be no charge for an estimate if needed.
We will apply the consultation/design fee towards your job if you hire us to do your flowers. Our floriculture team is extremely talented and our estimates are very thorough and our time is valuable. We provide a very professional design and estimate, therefore we must charge for our services.

Greenmark Landscaping has been installing Annual and Perennial Flowers for 20 years. Our Floriculture division is an extremely important part of Greenmark Landscaping. It enhances the beauty of our customers' properties and adds that bright spot of color throughout the coldest of winter and hottest of summer.
In order to insure great success in planting seasonal color an incredible amount of work must take place. It is also critical that the work is performed in the correct order to insure the project goes smoothly and that our results are outstanding. Our flowers outperform most others due to the amount of time and effort we take in preparing our beds and installing our flowers. Below is the exact process we have found to be the most successful for our clients.
Pull and remove existing annual plants.
Prune back any ornamental plants that encroach into the beds.
Remove old mulch from bed.
