The Journey

Our Process

Every garden starts with a conversation. We sit down with you, listen to your ideas and explore how you want to use your outdoor space. After an initial consultation, we develop a hand‑drawn concept sketch and refine it with your feedback. When you approve the design, we organise planting schemes, hard landscaping and all the practical details.

Consultation: We discuss your goals, budget and style preferences.

Design & Planning: We create beautifully detailed plans with planting schemes, materials and features.

Installation: Working with trusted landscapers, we build your garden with minimal disruption.

Aftercare: We provide advice on maintaining your new garden so it thrives year‑round.

Sustainable Materials & Planting

We focus on sustainability by using locally sourced materials and plants wherever possible. Wildflower meadows, native shrubs and pollinator‑friendly planting can attract wildlife and enhance biodiversity in your garden.

Your garden is special to you, and we’ll ensure it comes to life with love and care.
