Provision of complete garden planting plans

We provide comprehensive planting plans that transform a garden concept into a practical, thriving design. Whether you require a small courtyard refresh or a full-scale garden renovation, our planting plans are tailored to site conditions, client preferences and long-term maintenance needs.

What you receive

  • Planting plan drawing: a clear, scaled plan showing plant positions, bed shapes and hardscape relationships. Suitable for contractors and installation teams.

  • Plant schedule: a detailed list of plants with botanical and common names, pot size or root form at installation.

Our approach

  • Client consultation: we discuss style preferences, practical requirements (child- and pet-safe plants, low-allergy options, edibles), budget and maintenance capacity.

  • Ecological and climatic suitability: plants are chosen to suit local conditions and to promote biodiversity where desired.

  • Longevity and structure: emphasis on a layered planting approach — structural trees and shrubs, followed by intermediate shrubs, perennials and groundcovers — to create depth and resilience.

Delivery and implementation

  • Digital and print formats: plans supplied as high-resolution PDF and printable A1/A2 drawings.

  • Project support: we can supervise planting, provide one-off site visits during installation, or manage the full planting contract on your behalf.
