Right Plant, Right Place, Right material, Right Place - Planting designs are based on soil type, drainage, light levels and other site specifics for optimum health and growth. Materials are carefully chosen to fit the reality of the site - contours, moisture and light levels. Client Satisfaction - I encourage clients to provide as detailed a brief as possible - from colours, style, use, level of maintenance etc.
Client Brief: A cottage garden bed in pinks and blues, purples and whites. Climbers for the wall. The plants are all on order. I won't be planting this one, which is strange for me but I'm looking forward to seeing its development. Client Brief: A Mediterranean style bed with one existing tree in a hot sunny location with fertile free draining soil.
