Episodes
Water, Fire & Fountain Grass
Meet the Manscapers: three best friends and business partners who design lush backyards and outdoor spaces across New York City and beyond. James sets the team up with a job in the suburbs, but problems arise when Mel and the construction team strike water while building a stone patio. Meanwhile, Garrett creates a beach-inspired rooftop meadow for a couple in Brooklyn, but things get hot while adding some extra flare to the project's planter boxes.
To Bee or Not to Bee
The Manscapers must get creative to deliver a colorful backyard makeover after learning their new suburban clients are allergic to bees! At the same time, James and Mel mix their work and personal lives by agreeing to landscape an East Village rooftop for a good friend and fellow yoga instructor. Last minute additions, limited access, and cuts to schedules keep the Manscapers scrambling.
Green Is the New Black
A Brooklyn couple with a blank-slate backyard and big budget sounds like dream job for the Manscapers - but non-stop check-ins and micro-management from the clients slow their progress. Meanwhile, landscaping the rooftop bar at a high-end hotel for a pair of ultra-picky, design-minded clients puts everyone on edge.
Not So Grey Gardens
A return client presents the Manscapers with a unique challenge: landscaping four different outdoor spaces connected to her Greenwich Village town home. With each space demanding its own look and feel, one job starts to feel like four - leaving James, Mel, and Garrett stretched thin and under the gun to finish on time. Meanwhile, Mel's backyard gets an annual makeover in preparation for Garrett's birthday, leaving James a little jealous.
A Change of Greenery
The Manscapers' new suburban clients have found their "forever" home, but a limited budget to re-vamp the bland backyard means making difficult sacrifices. Back in the city, an eccentric designer has hired the team to landscape the outdoor spaces in a high-end hotel - but with only two days to complete the project, the Manscapers have their work cut out for them, especially when the client adds his own ideas.
The Concrete Jungle
The Manscapers jump at the chance to landscape the highly-anticipated pop-up restaurant Gitano. But they struggle finding the massive number of palm trees needed to realize their client's vision of recreating the jungle of Tulum, Mexico in Manhattan. Meanwhile, a Brooklyn-based client and renowned designer pushes the team to think "less is more" and scale back Garrett's planting scheme to transform his overgrown backyard into a minimalist Zen garden.
Thriller, Filler & Spiller
A suburban couple decides to spend big to give their family a dream backyard, but the project gets off to a rocky start. The Manscapers' plan for a massive new patio runs into underground complications, and designing with kids in mind proves to be a struggle. Meanwhile, James lands a major client in the city - a billion-dollar developer who always has a new skyscraper in the works - but a dream project may turn into a nightmare when the client starts picking apart the team's design.
Brides & Blooms
The Manscapers travel upstate to a working farm and vacation retreat to help their friend, Matt, prepare for a wedding; James, Mel and Garrett construct the ceremony site, landscape a honeymoon suite and prepare arrangements for the reception.
