I'm like, What happened to the fact that I don't want any palm trees?

So he gave us a plan that was totally not what we wanted, and a price that was way out of line, because it wasn't the plan we wanted
Then tried to suck us in by saying he'd give a $200 discount if we shouted him out on TOTV and made our decision right then.

We walked away. The next day he left a vicious voice mail on my cell phone accusing us of stealing his design and going to another landscaper. HA! It wasn't the designed we ever wanted! We went to another landscaper who would do our original design, for less money.
