Planting design and custom planting plans
Planting has the ability to transform a garden, whether it’s through bringing softness, structure, movement or seasonal character to an outdoor space over time. Our planting design service focuses on creating balanced and carefully considered planting schemes that feel connected to both the garden and the people who use it.
Planting guidance is suited to newly landscaped spaces, gardens that feel sparse or incomplete.
Every planting scheme is developed specifically for the conditions of your site. Consideration is given to soil, light levels, aspect, drainage, surrounding architecture, and the way the garden is used throughout the year.
We also take into account your preferred colour palette, desired atmosphere, budget, and how much time you would like to spend maintaining the garden.
Plant selections are chosen not only for their visual qualities, but also for how they will establish, interact, and evolve over time. The aim is to create planting that feels natural, enduring, and appropriate to the setting, while providing interest across the seasons and supporting biodiversity where possible.
Where required, we can also assist with plant sourcing and planting implementation to ensure the scheme is carried through with care and consistency.
To support long-term success, aftercare guidance can be included, providing practical advice on watering, pruning, mulching, and ongoing maintenance as the planting establishes and matures.
Whether you are starting with a blank canvas or refreshing an existing garden, a planting design provides a clear and thoughtful framework for a space that will continue to grow beautifully over time.
