Marcus is simply outstanding. He was exactly the person we needed, -reliable, hardworking, strong, capable, scrupulous over cost , flexible, adaptable, positive, lovely person and very knowledgeable about plants. In every way Marcus went the extra mile to help us clear the garden and start replanting again. I thank our lucky stars we found him. He’s a treasure.
