Whether you are looking to replant your whole garden, or are focused on just one particular area, producing a planting plan first will help you to:

• Create a visually attractive garden – By carefully choosing plants that complement each other in terms of their size, shape, colour, and texture, you can create a garden space that is both beautiful and harmonious.
• Attract wildlife – Incorporating the right sort of plants to provide food and shelter can greatly improve the biodiversity of your garden.
• Ensure that your plants will thrive – By considering the amount of sunlight, soil type, and climate in your garden, you can choose plants that are well-suited to your environment. This will help to ensure that your plants are healthy and productive.
• Save you time and money – By planning your garden ahead of time, you can avoid making costly mistakes, such as planting incompatible plants or overcrowding your garden. You can save time by knowing which plants you need to buy and when you need to plant them.
• Express your style – By choosing plants that reflect your favourite colours, textures, or shapes, you can create a garden that is truly unique to you.

My planting schemes are hand drawn and individually tailored to reflect both your tastes and the needs of the soil and site, and can also include an easy-to-follow maintenance guide if required.

The detailed plans will show the positions of all the proposed new plants and are accompanied by a full schedule listing all the plants used, their quantities and suggested sizes for purchasing.

The planting plan service is also available to garden owners who just want help with planting advice rather than a complete redesign of their whole garden.
