About

Gardens with real wow factor

I'm Rob, the Impatient Gardener, with over thirty years of tidy gardening behind me. I take tired, overgrown gardens and turn them into clean, colourful spaces that look great from day one.

Whether it's a new garden bed, fresh planting, a full clean-up or trimming back trees, I go big and I get it done. If you want a real change and you don't want to wait all season for it, give me a call.

What clients say

I just started working with Rob this week to tackle my completely overgrown, neglected yard, and I couldn’t be happier. I came home to such an incredible transformation, the front yard looks amazing, and the backyard cleanup made an enormous difference. I can’t wait to see what he does next! For the first time in a long time, I’m no longer embarrassed to step outside my home. Highly recommend!

The Impatient Gardener has been gardening for me for the past 7 years. My garden has never looked so good! I’m very happy!

— Alison

Rob showed up and went over and above when others didn’t even return my call. Very happy with the results. I’ll be reaching out to Rob in the future.

— Jill

Shout out to Rob..His garden business is called the Impatient Gardener that I found on Waterdown community Facebook page from a customer who highly recommended his amazing gardening skills
He truly did an awesome job on our messy overgrown gardens
He added lovely Perennials and worked very hard in this heatwave and accomplished a “lot “
His helpers did a great job on mulching and moving heavy rocks making the end results remarkable
Thank you
Truly appreciated
