Gardens
Plants are our speciality and we believe your garden or outdoor
space should look good all year round. With this is mind we
can create for you a garden which takes into account foliage,
form and year round structure. We carefully analyse planting
conditions beforehand to ensure that the plants we recommend
are best suited to the individual growing conditions of each
site.
Generally
our domestic garden planting package provides a strong structure
of evergreen planting to ensure that your garden looks interesting
throughout the year. Then, dependent on your requirements
and the amount of time you wish to spend on maintenance, we
look at providing interest with bulbs, flowers and foliage
according to the seasons of the year. From the windows of
the house, the end result is a carefully composed picture
of colour and form. On entering the garden you will experience
the pleasure of scent, movement and texture.
We select the plants and plant them for you in your new garden.
We use a number of quality suppliers who specialise in growing
mature and semi-mature specimens and we pride ourselves on
hand-picking the biggest and best plants available to give
you that ‘finished’ garden look.
We
believe in taking the time to improve the soil beforehand
with organic conditioners and can add a decorative mulch of
your choice- small measures but ones which will ensure the
best possible start for your new plants.
Special
Requests
Sometimes
we are asked to design and install planting to fulfil a very
specific brief- such as planting to provide privacy on visually
exposed sites or to deter intruders. Rabbit and deer-proof
planting is often a requirement for rural properties but increasingly
we are being asked to include plants which are edible for
humans in our schemes- mini-orchards and areas for growing
soft fruit and salads are popular. Often we combine the aesthetic
with the practical- blackcurrant bushes within a shrub border
for instance, fig trees to cover walls and fences and grapevines
across a pergola.
We
can design and create for you stunning gardens for special
occasions, these include weddings and celebrations at either
commercial or domestic properties. Please contact us for more
information.
Our
planting service is independent of our design package. We
welcome enquiries from those seeking to improve their outdoor
space with planting alone.
