In-person transformation
Your professional garden design service brings your dream garden to life with detailed, technical work that I make look easy.
The hardest work you have to do is sharing your garden dreams with me.
Then I focus on a concept you can envision yourself thriving in, and develop technical documents, planning and complexities to make it all real.
I select and supply plants that thrive with climate resilience and biodiversity in mind.
The final designs I provide to the appointed landscape contractor ensure your design can be built exactly as planned.
I then personally oversee the build to ensure your design is build exactly how you envisioned it.
