Landscapers are the worst. I live in a condo and they feel they need to chop everything down to the ground. If it is native, it is a weed to them.

I’m typing this with shock! I can not fathom how you feel!

I was confused for a moment, like _surely_ you meant to put the pictures in the other order…

So sorry

I would be absolutely livid, too. I’m so sorry. The good news is that it will probably come back next year. I’m sorry this happened to you 🙁

solidarity ❤️ that’s terrible i would be so emotional … this is so upsetting

Oh my gosh, I figured they’d have just mowed it, not taken it down to the dirt. That’s awful! I’d be so crushed. I hope things bounce back in the spring. Might not hurt to do some winter sowing, just in case?

It’s baffling to me that they wouldn’t double-check before destroying what’s clearly ornamental landscaping…

What’s the plant in picture 4?

Make sure to type up a plant list and the closest native nurseries price list. They can either reimburse you or do the labor themselves. This is well beyond a miscommunication

I would say it’s unbelievable but it isn’t, unfortunately. Also, was that butterfly bush? 👀

I just noticed that they left the sedum…
It’s insane to me that they didn’t even recognize black eyed Susan’s. What on earth

There’s no way it went from pruning to this. I’d take them to small claims court if they don’t offer some amount of monetary repayment for the plants they destroyed

Vacuum up the grass seed and get some fall planted perennials in! Ughh, I would have lost my mind on them.

Claims court if they’re not amenable to compensation.

Make them remove that grass seed themselves

They are grossly incompetent and don’t belong in that business. I’d hit them financially so they never think to do something like this again.

Commenting in support. I would be inconsolable.

I really like my landscapers they are sweet people, I finally had to tell them to stay out of the garden beds. They don’t really know plants. They edge, mow, blow the paths and trim my shrubs only now lol
Oh and hack at my wisteria

…..I am so sorry. I am baffled. It is too generous to chalk this up to a misunderstanding.
Not only would I be emotionally devastated if this happened to me, the financial value of your property that was destroyed is 🤯🤯
This was so obviously a garden bed!
I am scrolling and scrolling to find the comment where you are at least financially compensated 👀

There are grass cutters and there are landscapers. Most seem to be lawn cutters, sadly

They better be paying the cost of new plants.

I literally gasped. I’m so sorry they did that to your garden. Your hard work really showed- it was so beautiful!

Wtf have them reimburse you. You hired them to prune BUSHES not cut down entire flowerbeds and throw grass seeds. This is entirely on them.

O-M-G. That is terrible!!!

I find it hard to believe they spent that much labor to rip everything out and put down grass seed without request.

Well, fire them.

That is a lawsuit. The negligence is unbelievable. I bet they have no insurance, are total noobs, started the business yesterday. No other way to fathom.
