Pruning, by definition, is the selective removal of a plant part to achieve a certain goal. Our approach to pruning blends science and the art of subtraction to reveal, preserve and share the botanical beauty of the garden.

Process

To work with us is to work with people. Each Bill Miller & Associates client has their own dedicated BMA Account Director and Crew Leader, whose priority is maintaining a creative and flowing relationship between the team, the client and the garden.

Our team’s attention to detail, customization, communication and thoroughness are simply baseline qualities. Our company is built upon trust, integrity, respect, leadership, enthusiasm and excitement. We take advantage of each other’s unique abilities and share the benefits of synergistic success. These values, combined with a high level of training and skill, ensure excellent, show-stopping results.

Our Value

Through intelligent tending of the gardens in our care, we promote the understanding and appreciation of trees and their allies: shrubs, hedges and vines. Our value develops over broad spaces and long intervals. We seek to take a 20-year approach to maximizing a garden, and always take into account the client’s vision, as well as that of the designer.

“I work with flow. I strive to understand where things are heading. I apply my insight and utilize my energy and my strength to gently, continuously steer the garden towards beauty. Knowing that beauty lies in the eye of the beholder, it is always attainable. I work at pulling back the veil, allowing the beholder to see that which was hidden before I came along.”
