OUR PROCESS
How We Work
A thoughtful, collaborative approach to creating gardens that feel natural and distinctively yours

Six Steps to Your Distinctive Garden
01
Initial Consultation
We begin with an in-depth conversation about your vision, lifestyle and how you use your garden. We listen carefully to understand your needs, preferences and any constraints.
This is where we get to know you and your space, establishing the foundation for everything that follows.
02
Site Analysis & Concept Development
We conduct a thorough analysis of your garden - measuring, photographing, and assessing existing features, sunlight, soil conditions, and views.
From this research, we develop initial concept sketches and mood boards to explore different directions and design ideas.
03
Design Development & Presentation
We create detailed design drawings showing layout, hard landscaping, planting plans and material specifications. These are presented to you in person, with full explanation of our thinking.
Your feedback is essential at this stage. We refine and revise until the design feels right.
04
Planting Scheme & Specifications
Once the hard landscaping is agreed, we develop a detailed planting scheme with a comprehensive plant list - all chosen for structure, seasonal interest, and long-term maturity.
We source mature specimens where possible to ensure your garden feels established from day one.
05
Installation & Project Management
We oversee the entire installation process, working with trusted contractors and specialists. We manage timelines, quality control and site coordination.
Throughout construction, we remain on site regularly to make decisions and ensure every detail meets our standards.
06
Aftercare & Ongoing Guidance
After completion, we provide detailed aftercare guidance and horticultural support. We advise on watering, feeding, pruning and seasonal maintenance.
We remain available for ongoing advice, ensuring your garden continues to evolve beautifully for years to come.
