Light, soil, moisture and root competition guide plant selection. A shady spot can be dry or damp – and that difference matters.
Plants & care
Plants set the mood of a garden. We combine foliage, flowers and growth habits in a scheme suited to the site – with care considered from the start.

Light, soil, moisture and root competition guide plant selection. A shady spot can be dry or damp – and that difference matters.
Perennials, grasses, shrubs and trees are coordinated by height, foliage, flowering time and growth. Repeated planting brings a sense of calm.
Well-prepared ground, suitable species, clear edges and accessible planting areas make everyday care easier. The time you have available shapes the design.
Planting changes over time. We monitor gaps, competition and excessive spread, adjusting through division or additional planting where needed.

Sunny & Well-Drained
Suitable flowering perennials and grasses form repeated groups. Water requirements depend on the plants, soil and how well roots have become established.
A Partly Shaded Woodland Edge
Contrasting leaf sizes and selected flowers create depth. Soil moisture and root competition are assessed before plants are chosen.
Consistently Moist Soil
Suitable perennials can create lush planting. Clear edges and layered heights bring the whole scheme together.
Care that fits everyday life
Check establishment and soil moisture; remove unwanted growth early.
Watch for drought stress, gaps and spreading plants; provide care as needed.
Time cutting back to suit each plant and its new growth; retain suitable seed heads.
Divide plants, fill gaps and adapt the care plan as the planting develops.
Good to know
Plants suited to the site and a thoughtful layout can reduce the work required. The care still needed depends on the site, the look you want and how the garden develops.
Extra watering may be needed, especially after planting. Later, weather, soil and the needs of the plants still matter. One fixed watering rule rarely suits an entire garden.
We first identify which plants suit the site and the new design. Healthy, suitable existing planting can provide the starting point.
We discuss the essential tasks and how much care you would like to undertake yourself. This helps us provide clear care guidance and arrange further support if needed.
