Range of Services
-
Full Garden Design
A comprehensive and bespoke service to create a thoughtful design to optimise your garden’s potential.
Starting with an initial consultation, the full design service includes multiple stages - from initial site survey to creating tendering documents. Everything your landscape contractor needs to build your new garden.
To achieve a complete garden transformation, using all the design services is recommended, but other options are available as needed.
From £1200

Planting Plan
Transform your garden, whether it's a new build craving life or a mature space needing renewal.
A bespoke planting plan will be created taking your style preferences into consideration and designed to help introduce colour, visual interest, seasonal variety, or more biodiversity into your planting borders.
I can also source quality plants from local nurseries at a competitive price, helping you create an affordable thriving garden.
From £300
-
Garden Consultation
A one-off consultation is an ideal option if you want some guidance without committing to a full design.
Either in person or online, we will spend 1-3 hours discussing what you want from your garden. Afterwards you will receive a consultation report, which can include layout advice, material ideas, planting mood boards, or general planning suggestions.
If you need more help, a consultation can easily transition into a full garden design service.

Garden Maintenance
I love to create gardens that are buzzing with wildlife and colour all year round. Sometimes this can be achieved through regular maintenance and timely changes.
I offer border maintenance (e.g., pruning, weeding, tidying), plant sourcing and planting, fruit tree pruning, meadow management, pond care, vegetable tending and hedge trimming (up to 6 ft).
As an organic gardener, I use wildlife-friendly methods to help support healthy and ecologically diverse gardens.
