experience and results

Maggie and Julie both have a Certificate in Horticulture (with Distinctions in Garden Design) and more than fifteen years 'hands on' gardening experience. Through their own gardens and work for other people, they have acquired skills and knowledge relating to trees and shrubs, herbaceous plants, fruit, vegetables and herbs. Both garden organically at home and encourage clients to do the same. Here are some examples of feedback that has been received:

"Julie and Maggie made me think about my garden in a completely different way. They listened to our preferences, needs and desires and translated them into an entirely new space. Having native plants was important, as well as a place still for children to play in. We all enjoyed the planting day and everyone contracted turned up on the day they said they would, and did the things they said they would (and more). We now have a much better garden, a maintenance plan and a new found interest."

"We thought we'd given you an impossible brief; a dark enclosed yard, an unsightly concrete wall and two clients arguing about their divergent tastes in plants. But you gave us such imaginative choices of plants and planting schemes, and such detailed practical advice, that we've got back our sense of possibility. You've reignited our enthusiasm for creating a green oasis in what was originally an unsightly back yard."

"The new Shrub bed and border which you planted for us has made such a difference to the overall look of the garden. You have planted it very cleverly and the buddleja bed in front of the house is spectacular after only two seasons. We now have so many butterflies which just were not around before. A really professional job."

"The garden is fab. It is a pleasure to look out at now, can't believe the change in one year."
