The Mind Behind Lucent Gardens
At Lucent Gardens, our success stems from the idea and leadership of a remarkable individual – Mr. Dilip Murkute. Our founder and visionary behind our success, Dilip, has led Lucent Gardens to become a beacon of excellence in landscape design, development and maintenance with a diverse background in hospitality management and a keen eye for detail.
Before starting his entrepreneurial journey, Dilip Murkute began his career with prestigious names in the hotel industry, including Oberoi and Taj groups. His deep understanding of client needs and his commitment to quality laid the foundation for Envocare, a successful pest control startup he founded in 2013. Under his leadership, Envocare grew from a modest operation to a leading player in the industry, eventually being acquired by Rentokil PCI which is worlds biggest Pest management company. This success story is a testament to Dilip’s vision, strategic acumen, and dedication.

Building on his entrepreneurial success, Dilip turned his attention to another emerging need: professional landscaping and horticulture services. In response to the growing demand for sustainable and beautifully designed green spaces, he founded Lucent Gardens. His goal was to fill a gap in the market with a company that values innovation, sustainability, and exceptional service.
Dilip’s vision for Lucent Gardens is clear: to create and maintain outdoor environments that enhance the beauty and functionality of every space, whether residential, commercial, or institutional. He believes that every garden should be a reflection of its owner’s personality and a testament to thoughtful design and care.
Supporting Dilip is a team of skilled landscape architects, Horticulture graduates, and experienced gardeners who share his passion for creating stunning outdoor spaces. Together, they bring a wealth of experience and expertise to each project, ensuring that every garden we design and maintain is executed with precision and care.
At Lucent Gardens, Dilip’s leadership drives us to exceed expectations and deliver exceptional results. His unwavering commitment to creativity, sustainability, and quality with transparent business ethics ensures that every project we undertake is handled with the utmost care and precision. With Dilip’s guidance, we are dedicated to transforming your green spaces into stunning environments that truly stand out.
