About Us
Recently, some reporter asked Jim Brunner if he could interview
Jim for his upscale magazine which was doing an article on
Landscape Designers in South Florida. The reporter said it
would be great for business. Jim told me he didn't want to
because the guy sounded like he was an actor on stage. I told
Jim he should go for it.
I was there. Jim sat politely. The reporter said, "James,
if you were a flower what would you be?" Jim's eyes rolled
backwards. But Jim thought for a moment and then said, "If
I were a flower I'd be basking in the beautiful outdoors and
breathing in the warmth of the sun instead of sitting here
listening to you!" Jim exited. I apologized to Jim and worked
on this web-page to tell you who Jim REALLY is.
Twenty-three years ago Jim began mowing lawns. He loved the
fresh air, the hard, but rewarding work; most of all though,
he loved the people he worked with and for.
As each year progressed he learned more about landscape design
by watching others do it. He learned what to do from those
who did it right and what not to do from those who did it
wrong. He branched out about fifteen years ago into the commercial
lawn maintenance business and about twelve years ago he undertook
his first "real" landscape design job. Today Jim's Natural
Wonders Landscape and Design Company has dozens and dozens
of continuing clients and about one hundred twenty contract
clients are serviced each year. Continuing clients are those
that allow a frequent upgrade and revamping of their landscape
areas and who allow Jim to maintain their picturesque pieces
of Paradise. Contract clients are those people who hire Natural
Wonders Landscape and Design to conceptualize, and then create
what the landowner envisions.
Parenthetically, Jim owns and operates a major commercial
lawn maintenance business (South Florida Lawn Care) and an
amazing and much photographed retail nursery (Broward Gardens
Landscaping & Nursery) whose Topiaries, plants and waterfalls
have been placed at such famous venues as Universal Studios,
Disney World and soon at Rockefeller Center in New
York City. Also, many local landscapers purchase Jim's
Topiary creations for placement with their clients. What a
great affirmation of one's success; to be esteemed by one's
own peers (not to mention competitors).
Jim has been driven, flown and sailed to many states
and islands in and around this Nation, to offer his
art and expertise, as well as creating designs for use in
Mexico, South America and Canada. He
has studied the landscapes and offered designs for use in
Alaska and Africa and has utilized his access
to Japan and India to create fabulous Meditation
Gardens and Paths.
Every weekend people come to the "nursery"; some to buy,
some to browse and some simply to relax. All are welcome.
Jim seeks clients who are smart shoppers. He seeks people
who have a "feel" for what they want; people who spend their
money, not ostentatiously, but prudently. And he seeks people
who want to maximize what they have to invest rather then
to "one up" anyone else.
He undertakes budgets from the teens to over a million dollars,
delivering the best, the most and the unique within the means
of the client.
His work is one hundred percent guaranteed.
So is your satisfaction.
