Planting Proposal

Aaron, here's your quote

344 E Scott Ave, Gilbert, AZ 85234

Good news, we can absolutely get all of this done for you. Below is the breakdown for the planters, the pasture trees, and the citrus, zone by zone, with pricing for each so you know exactly what you're getting. You don't have to do all of it at once either, happy to do the full list or just whichever pieces you want to move on first. As a consult client you're already in the Garden Nerd Club too, so feel free to reach out there anytime with questions along the way.

One thing before any of this goes in the ground: you'll need irrigation up and running to each of these zones. This quote doesn't include irrigation work, but if you need a hand getting it sorted, Garrett is who I'd bring in, you can reach him directly at 480-678-9121.
This quote covers exactly what's listed below, zone by zone. If something isn't listed here, it's not included in this price, if you want anything added, just let me know and I'll get it priced out and added to the quote.
Timing: general planting on this list, we'd plan to start in a few weeks. The citrus root flare work can start as soon as next week if you want to get that moving sooner.
01 · Back Irrigation Area

Peach & Pomegranate

Florida Prince Peach and Parfianka Pomegranate, both at 15-gallon size, going into the back irrigation area. Florida Prince is the best low-chill peach for our climate, and Parfianka holds up better against leaf-footed bugs than Wonderful does. Both get planted above grade with the root flare exposed from the start.

15-gallon

Parfianka Pomegranate

Pomegranate — Parfianka

West wall planter, backyard, existing Orange Jubilee
02 · West Wall, Backyard

5 More Orange Jubilee

Five more Orange Jubilee going into the planter along the west wall, 5-gallon size. This fills the wall out with the same plant you're already using elsewhere on the property, fast growing with orange blooms most of the year.

Orange Jubilee

Orange Jubilee

5-gallon, qty 5

$425

5 plants at 5-gallon, tree/plant and planting labor included. This is part of a 25-plant bulk order across the quote, the volume discount for that is applied once in the total below.

East side of house, front yard
03 · East Side of House

Remove the Existing Shrubs, Plant Cape Plumbago

The 4 shrubs currently along the east side of the house come out, and 8 Cape Plumbago go in at 5-gallon size. Cape Plumbago gives you soft blue blooms nearly year-round and doesn't need much water once established, a nice upgrade over what's there now.

If you want to keep going, we can turn the corner onto the front of the house and add 8 more to carry the same look around, that part is optional and priced separately below.

Cape Plumbago

Optional — extend around the corner to the front of the house: +8 more Cape Plumbago, +$680.

Front of house, both planters
04 · Front of House

Iceberg Roses, Both Planters

6 Iceberg Roses in each of the two front planters, 12 total, at 5-gallon size. Iceberg is the most reliable rose for this kind of spot, clean white blooms most of the year with less fuss than a lot of other varieties.

Iceberg Rose

Iceberg Rose

5-gallon, qty 12 (6 per planter)

$1,020

12 plants at 5-gallon, plant and planting labor included. This is part of the 25-plant bulk order across the quote, that volume discount is applied once in the total below.

Leaning tree, front/side yard
05 · Side of House

Chinese Elm, Planted Alongside the Leaning Tree

The current leaning tree stays in place for now, it's still giving good shade to the house. We'll plant a Chinese Elm right alongside it at 15-gallon size and let it get established while the old tree keeps providing shade in the meantime. Once the elm is tall enough to give its own shade, that's the time to take the leaning tree down.

$375

15-gallon, tree and planting labor included.

06 · Struggling Citrus

Root Flare Excavation, Plus a Year of Recovery Care

For the citrus that's been struggling, I'd start with a root flare excavation, pulling back the soil at the base to expose the flare and give the roots room to breathe again. That's usually the first and biggest fix for a tree in decline like this. We can get this scheduled as soon as next week.

Beyond that, I'd also recommend enrolling this tree in our Tree Recovery Program. It's a one-time, one-year program, four visits over that year with a deep root liquid injection each time, built to give a tree like this a real shot at recovering rather than a single one-off fix.

$200

Root flare excavation, one-time: $200.

Tree Recovery Program

$475 one-time

One-year program, 4 quarterly visits, deep root liquid injection each visit.

This is a one-time, one-year program for this tree, not a recurring annual charge.

Total Estimate

Here's how it all adds up

Peach + Pomegranate (15gal x2)$750
Orange Jubilee, west wall (5gal x5)$425
Cape Plumbago (5gal x8) + shrub removal (x4)$880
Iceberg Roses, front planters (5gal x12)$1,020
Chinese Elm, side yard (15gal x1)$375
Bulk discount (10%, 25 plants at 5gal)−$137.50
Citrus root flare excavation (one-time)$200
Citrus Tree Recovery Program (one-time, 1 year)$475
Total$3,987.50

Optional add-on, not included in the total above: extend Cape Plumbago around the front corner (+8, 5gal) for +$680.

A 50% deposit ($1,993.75) on whichever pieces you move forward with gets that work scheduled, with the balance due on completion. Happy to invoice just a portion of this list if you'd rather start smaller.

Next Steps

Just need irrigation squared away first

Once irrigation is confirmed working to each of these zones, we're ready to schedule. Let me know if you want the optional corner extension or the Tree Recovery Program added in, and I'll get everything finalized.
