Don't Just TakeOur Word For It
The best measure of our work isn't what we say. It's what happens when clients stay for 5, 10, even 20+ years. These are homeowners across Canterbury, Camberwell, Kew, and Surrey Hills who chose us once and never needed to look again.

"We've used Anthony and his team for several projects over many years – from a large scale re-design and remodelling and replanting, to everyday garden care and maintenance. His service is great and we're very happy to recommend him."
Andrew & Caroline

"I have been impressed by the high quality of your work, your friendly and very prompt service and your reliability… I would give you and your workers a star rating of 5 out of 5."
Jill
Hawthorn East
"We were attracted not only to the house but also to a small but special garden with many unusual plants… we have been very happy to have Anthony and Sam keeping a watchful eye and giving the garden whatever TLC is needed. They are reliable and we have confidence in the care they take."
Sue

"Anthony and his team are a pleasure to have around. They are all absolute gentlemen and they do a wonderful job. Reliable and diligent."

"ABS Horticulture have been caring for our townhouse garden for many years… We have introduced some of our friends to ABS and they too have expressed satisfaction with ABS capable design and maintenance work."
Gilbert
Glen Iris
"The ABS team have looked after our garden for the last two and a half years. They have helped keep the old girl under control and the transformation of the back garden has been amazing."
Anita
Kooyong
"We are completely satisfied with the work done by Abs. We have a large yard with a huge gum that drops constant litter across our garden. Sam and Anthony are incredibly professional and nice…and they care about the end result!! Always discrete and always leave the property in impeccable condition. We have a monthly maintenance which has reinvented our garden! No need to worry about the right time to fertilise or prune, just sit back and enjoy!"
Donagh
Melbourne
"Very happy with these guys. After a year or so of having them look after my place I wanted to revamp my garden completely, they chose the best plants and flowers for the area, their attention to detail is superb and my place looks amazing!"
Pip
Melbourne
"Anthony and Sam have done a great job maintaining and improving my garden over the past couple of years. Highly recommended."
Sue
Melbourne
"ABS Horticulture has been looking after our garden for over 10 years. In that time, Anthony's team have proven to be reliable, skilled and prompt with their services. The staff are always polite and their workmanship is top notch, whether it is lawn care, pruning, or shaping our numerous bay trees and hedges. I love coming home from work on the day ABS have serviced our garden, it always looks great."

Why Clients Stay
The ABS Difference
Familiar Faces
Anthony, Sam, Rebecca and Grant, usually two per visit, always familiar faces. Sam has been with us over a decade. They know your garden's quirks, your preferences, and your dog's name. That continuity is something no large operation can replicate.
No Contracts, Just Results
We've never used lock-in contracts. Our longest client relationships span 20+ years, not because anyone's trapped, but because the garden keeps looking better and there's never been a reason to leave.
Horticultural Expertise
Anthony's Diploma of Applied Science (Horticulture) from the University of Melbourne (Burnley) and nearly three decades in Melbourne's eastern suburbs means every decision, from pruning timing to soil management, is backed by genuine science, not guesswork.
