A Magical Transformation
A magician and his wife are in trouble with the neighbors for their desperate front yard. There are no plants, no sidewalk and the only color comes from the caution tape in the yard. Neighbors want it to disappear. Jason Cameron has a few tricks up his sleeve to fix up the yard. It'll take a Bobcat, a jackhammer, a Dingo and thousands of dollars worth of plants. By the end of the day, presto-change-o, a new landscape will magically appear.
Sorority SOS
The sisters of Delta Delta Delta are great philanthropists. Unfortunately, their philanthropy doesn't go as far as their front yard.

With Love to Iraq

The Tale of Two Doors

He's taking out sidewalks, taking down trees and taking a lot of trash talk from the three boys who can't wait for the yard to get done!
The Failing Florist
Ray and Katie Elfers have let their front yard go to say the least. Their excuse? They are busy with Tyler, Regan and little Lola leaving little time for their front yard. Ironically, Katie designs wedding florals for a living and doesn't have a clue about flowers and plants for the yard. That's why they called Jason Cameron and his team of landscaping experts to transform their lot into a thing of beauty. Jason plans to bring in lots of plants, lots of paint, and some heavy machinery to build a new walkway for the Elfers. When he's finished 1237 Upland Avenue will go from one of the worst on the block to one of the best.
A Crash Course in Landscaping
Dave and Alyssa Payne had a rough go of things a few months ago. After a neighbor's truck popped out of gear and collided with the front of their house, they were forced to undergo a complete remodel.

Jason Cameron brings in some serious machinery and $5,000 worth of new plants to transform this landscape into the beauty it once was.
Single Mom Seeks Not-So-Desperate Landscape
Meet Donita Oneal, a single mom, who's a do-it-yourselfer at heart except when it comes to her yard, and the neighbors have taken notice.

They're bringing bolt cutter, chainsaws, a stump grinder and much more to help Donita turn her Washington Avenue home into one of the best on the block.
Standing Tall in the Neighborhood
John James stands out in his neighborhood for a lot of reasons. He's the tallest guy on the block with some of the tallest weeds on the block. Neighbors say his home is an eyesore among the all the beautiful historic homes on the street. Jason Cameron brings in plenty of city-hardy plants that will thrive in this urban landscape...plus he brings the tools to fix up an old Victorian porch and repair an old wrought iron fence. When the job's done, John will be able to stand tall among his neighbors.
Hard Drives and Hard Times
Tami Riley and David Nolan are computer programmers who are clueless when it comes to programming their front yard. They live in an established old neighborhood and their neighbors show off everything, including their front porches in an annual competition.

We also add two new beds, take down an unsightly chain link fence and make their porch into something both John and Mary will enjoy!
A Natural Disaster
A very busy family has a hard time keeping up with their front yard. Eric is a lawyer and Adrienne is busy taking care of their three children, Adrienne, Aria and little Vincent.
