Blooming City is an intentionally small but long-established incorporated business that has offered a range of services over our history.
The overarching vision that drives all our work is Harmony.
Humans in harmony with our home: Nature.
People, pets, and plants prospering in Place.
We connect, care, and communicate, with a commitment to increasing the joy, fulfillment, and satisfaction that we all get from plants and Nature.
Many of our clients come to us by word of mouth. We pride ourselves on being “the gardener’s gardener”™. Most of our clients share responsibility for their gardens with us. See what clients have to say about us here.
As professional gardeners, we are part of the horticulture and landscaping sector. We have decades of experience doing both garden design and installation, including construction projects. However, the bulk of our work at this time is focused on outstanding customer service in providing care to urban perennial gardens.
Our Founder and Chief Caretaker David Mordecai, has been gardening for fifty years. He has a degree in Horticulture from Cornell University, and is a “Master Gardener” (in quotes because Nature has no master) who volunteers with Toronto Master Gardeners.
