Our Team
Company Owner
Mark Lyon is Green Thumb’s owner and operator, and also it’s chief landscaper. His career literally began at age 14 when his parents purchased several acres and built a home. Mark’s first trip to the nursery brought love at first site. He’s kept his fingers in dirt ever since.
Mark, a veteran graphic artist, uses his creativity to design, plan and execute original landscape designs. Mark is an attentive listener and absorbs feedback from clients and brings it together with a creative instinct to produce his designs.
Mark has spent years studying both chemical and organic principles of landscaping and applies the best of what he’s learned to each of his landscapes.

WEB SITE REVIEWS
MARK L. - Cedar Park,TX
“I have known and worked with Mark Lyon for over 14 years and he is one of the best individuals I have ever done business with. I have used Mark and Green Thumb for all my landscaping needs for three years and could not be happier. Mark is honest, hardworking, has great pricing and has done a fantastic job with all of my projects.” 02-2022
Matt H. - Dallas,Tx (Quiktrip facility support manager)
“In my line of work you’re constantly being pulled in many directions. I care a great deal about our landscaping appeal but often do not have the time to personally give it the attention it needs. I’ve gone through several “show up and mow” lawn care contractors looking for a company that would be more of a “partner” with me in maintaining our high standards. Green Thumb offers the level of accountability I require and the rare ability to be preventative and pro-active in addressing areas of concern. That peace of mind is priceless to me.”
Richard M. - DALLAS,TX
“Mark Lyon and Green Thumb Landscaping have provided us with professional landscaping advice, implementation and service at very competitive rates. Mark is truly a man of his word and I would recommend Green Thumb to everyone.”
Barbara H. - Farmers branch,TX
“When Green Thumb landscaped our property in the fall of 2007 we were very pleased with the final results. Not only did Mark design a beautiful arrangement, but the plants he suggested were ones that we already liked. All of that and the total cost was still within our budget! Mark and his crews have kept our yard looking beautiful for two years now and we wouldn’t think of letting anyone else touch it.”
