Expert advice and comprehensive site analysis to understand your garden's character, soil conditions and opportunities, creating the foundation for informed design decisions. Whether you've inherited a mature garden, are planning a new border, or want to improve an existing planting scheme, I provide practical, site-specific advice tailored to your garden. During a one-to-one consultation, we'll walk through the space together, assessing planting, soil conditions, aspect, drainage and seasonal interest, while identifying opportunities for improvement. You'll receive clear, honest recommendations backed by professional horticultural experience, helping shape the next steps for your garden—whether that's refining existing borders or developing a complete planting or garden design.
Thoughtful garden and planting designs shaped by naturalistic principles, layering colour, texture and structure to create gardens that evolve beautifully throughout the seasons. Every garden begins with understanding the site. Drawing on horticultural knowledge and naturalistic planting principles, I create bespoke garden and planting designs that respond to your garden's architecture, soil, aspect and surrounding landscape. The aim is to create spaces that feel balanced and immersive, with succession of colour, texture and structure from the first bulbs of spring through to the seed heads and silhouettes of winter. Whether you're transforming an existing border or redesigning an entire garden, every planting palette is carefully composed to thrive in its environment while providing long-term beauty, seasonal interest and manageable maintenance. What's included:
Professional installation of trees, shrubs, perennials, grasses and bulbs, creating resilient, beautifully layered gardens with lasting structure. Working with trusted specialist nurseries, I select and install plants with precision and close attention to detail. Each plant is positioned to support healthy long-term growth, complement the surrounding scheme and contribute interest throughout the seasons, allowing the garden to develop naturally over time. From thorough soil preparation and planting to mulching and establishment watering, every stage is completed using professional horticultural practices to give your garden the strongest possible start. What's included:
Ongoing horticultural care and seasonal refinement, guiding planting development through expert pruning, thoughtful management and continual adaptation as the garden matures. Gardens are constantly evolving, and thoughtful aftercare is essential to help them reach their full potential. Through ongoing horticultural management, I provide the seasonal care, refinement and expertise needed to ensure planting schemes remain healthy, balanced and beautiful as they mature. Rather than routine maintenance alone, this service focuses on understanding how the garden develops over time—guiding growth, refining planting, and making considered interventions that enhance both the health of the garden and its long-term character.
