ABOUT US

Dr. R. E. Moon + Associates is a woman-owned, family-operated horticultural consulting business founded in 1982. Our origin was the vision of Dr. Robert E. Moon and his wife, Suzanne Moon, to consult and share Dr. Moon's knowledge of horticulture and love for landscaping with properties in the Dallas area, throughout Texas and the United States.

OUR HISTORY

Dr. Moon, our senior consultant, has over 40 years of horticulture expertise and a passion for making every property he works with the "crown jewel." This vision has carried over to our team. We work with our clients to provide best practices and accountability for landscape services to set the standard for exceptional landscapes. 

Dr. Moon has a B.S. Degree in Agriculture Education, a Masters Degree in Horticulture and a Ph.D in Agronomy (Crop Sciences) from Oklahoma State University which give him a unique blend of knowledge and landscaping perspective. He has a proven record of providing exceptional horticultural consulting as he worked as the Dallas County Extension Horticulturist and Area Horticultural Specialist for Texas A&M University for 10 years.

Along with his wife, Suzanne Moon, our Senior Administrator, came the success of Dr. R.E. Moon + Associates. Now the business has expanded to all three of Dr. Moon's daughters, two sons-in-law, and two grandchildren.
