I've heard nothing but good things about Arredondo and Fernwood. I can always tell when Arredondo has done a yard -- it is unique and quite well done with plants appropriate for Central Florida. I've heard a few complaints about Jamie's and McGowan but they have either been minor or downright petty.

Drive around. When you see a landscaping job you really like, especially one a few years old, ask the homeowner who did it, what was liked/not liked about the job and landscaper, maintenance, etc.

The nice thing about landscaping is that it doesn't have to be done immediately. You can take your time and be sure you're getting the right thing without being cheated.
