Planting schemes Hopefully my website gives you a glimpse of the infinite combinations of plants, their colours, textures and forms, for schemes that may be near a house and so formal with some structural planting or further away and so looser, less formal and even a little wild to blend with the natural world. Planting gives a garden character and also a rhythm, helping dictate the pace at which a garden is enjoyed. It can lead the eye, wow the onlooker, create quieter dappled light filled leafy places for contemplation, form intimate eating areas under arbours covered in scented roses and jasmine. The possibilities are endless. Each scheme is specific to each particular garden, responding to the client's and or architect's brief. The soil, the seasons, the environmental conditions, pollinators and the level of maintenance to hand are all taken into consideration. Projects undertaken include planting around the house, traditional herbaceous borders, mixed borders with both shrub and perennial plants, walled gardens, wild flower meadows, orchards, woodland planting and wilder areas of planting merging with the landscape. |

Services Typically an initial chat on the telephone results in meeting on site in your garden to discuss thoughts for the planting beds or areas to be planted. At this meeting a brief is established, likes and dislikes discussed and photographs of the site taken. Lucy then emails you a quote for your approval, acceptance of which starts the process of designing the planting plan. Having drafted a planting plan to scale and drawn up a plant schedule noting the quantities of plants required, a second meeting is arranged to go through the scheme and discuss sourcing of plants and planting. There are of course many variations of the above . . . please get in touch to discuss your thoughts. |
