Services
Landscape Design
We create bespoke garden designs tailored to urban environments. Our process involves collaborative brief development, site analysis, and detailed specification documents for construction. Clients receive comprehensive visualisations and planting plans that maximise available space while considering environmental factors. Our designs balance aesthetics with practicality, ensuring long-term sustainability.
Window Boxes
Our custom window box installations transform limited spaces into vibrant displays. Using seasonal plants and permanent arrangements, we create low-maintenance solutions that enhance architectural features. Each design considers structural requirements and client preferences, with options for self-maintenance or professional upkeep through our subscription service.
Courtyards & Roof Gardens
Specialist creation of private outdoor spaces in challenging urban environments. We address structural weight limitations, drainage requirements, and microclimate conditions to develop functional rooftop terraces and hidden courtyard gardens. Our solutions incorporate durable materials and climate-appropriate planting schemes for year-round enjoyment.
Garden Maintenance
Comprehensive maintenance programs ensure gardens remain in optimal condition. Services include seasonal pruning, planting updates, irrigation management, and winter preparation. We offer flexible contracts from occasional visits to full-year programs, with expert advice available for clients managing their own outdoor spaces.
Window Box Subscription
Year-round window box replacements featuring seasonal plant combinations. After initial installation, we provide five scheduled updates annually using premium planting materials. This service ensures continuous visual impact while maintaining plant health and structural integrity through professional monitoring and replacement.
