Rooted in Tradition, Growing with You Since 1952
Bayview Garden Nurseries began as a humble endeavor by Harry and Betty Cummings in the Bayview tract of Pleasantville, NJ.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t say enough about how happy I am with the incredible pondless waterfall that Kevin Cummings, Bill, and Jay from Bayview Nurseries created for us! We had an old, defunct pond in our backyard that I had always hoped to transform into a pondless waterfall. Kevin had the wonderful idea to use the existing stone from the old pond to create the new feature, which not only preserved the character of the space but also saved us money. Bill and Jay’s attention to detail was exceptional, but what stood out just as much was how incredibly kind and accommodating they were throughout the entire project. When the job was initially completed, they were not completely happy with the water output. Rather than settling for something they felt was less than perfect, they returned to the nursery, ordered a different pump, and installed a temporary one in the meantime. When they came back to install the new pump, they continued tweaking the smallest details to make the waterfall even better. That level of creativity, pride, and dedication to a project is so hard to find. They even worked late to make sure everything was just right—and I truly wouldn’t change a thing! The best part is that this is only the beginning! In May 2027, Kevin’s beautiful landscape design will come to life with plantings around the waterfall, throughout the entire back garden bed, and in two front beds. I can’t wait to see his vision come together and make our entire yard even more spectacular! I highly, highly recommend Bayview Nurseries, Kevin, Bill, and Jay for your landscaping needs. Thank you for making our backyard come alive!

Bruce and crew just finished up and we wanted you to know how happy we are with the finished project. The crew were so courteous and helpful and left our property completely clean and free of debris. All our interactions with Bayview from the landscape design with Jerry ,to scheduling with Brandon and talking with Joanie about plants have been very positive and professional. We will definitely be recommending your team to all our friends and neighbors. Thank you
