The process includes site surveys, scaled drawings, and material specifications to ensure functional and aesthetically pleasing results that meet individual client requirements.
Planting Schemes
Specialist planting services focus on creating year-round interest through carefully selected plant combinations. We develop hand-drawn planting plans considering mature plant sizes, seasonal colour transitions, and ecological benefits. Our expertise covers diverse styles from cottage gardens to contemporary designs, with ongoing maintenance support to ensure long-term success of planted schemes.
