Quintessence
A blank lawn, planned.
New builds all start the same: a flat lawn and a fence. This is a way to make yours different: a designed planting scheme, planted by me, from £950.
WHAT YOU GET
The survey
One visit to measure up and check the plot, so the plan fits your garden.
WHAT YOU GET
The planting
Pick from a set of designed planting themes, each planted for wildlife. One round of revisions, then I plant it, using young plants to keep the price down.
Pick a theme
Every theme is planted for wildlife and the local ecology, so bees, birds and bugs come in and it feels like home. Pick the look that feels like you.
THEME 1
Meadow and wildflower
Grasses and wildflowers that hum with bees and butterflies.
THEME 2
Cut flower garden
Colour for the vase, from spring bulbs to autumn dahlias.
THEME 3
Cottage garden
Soft, generous planting full of colour, scent and old favourites.
THEME 4
Modern garden
Clean lines and simple planting: Photinia ‘Red Robin’, underplanting and lavender.
How it works
STEP 1
A brew and a chat
We talk about how you want to use the garden.
STEP 2
Visit and survey
I measure up and check the plot, the light and the drainage.
STEP 3
Choose your theme
Pick from a set of designed planting themes. One round of revisions.
STEP 4
I plant it
I come and build it, using young plants that grow in and look more established over the next two to three years.
Compacted ground is the real challenge on new builds, so I choose plants that cope with it.
From £950 for a small planting area. The price depends on the size of the beds and the plants you choose, and I confirm it after the survey visit.
Good to know.
What does it cost?
New-build planting packages start from £950 for a small planting area. Larger beds, more or bigger plants and extra work cost more, and I confirm the price after the survey visit.
What’s included?
One survey visit, a planting plan from a set of designed themes, one round of revisions, basic bed preparation, and me planting it up with young plants. Your patio, fences and lawn stay as they are.
Can I choose my theme?
Yes. Pick the one that feels like you, and I’ll adjust it to fit your plot.
Can I have bigger plants?
Yes. More mature planting gives more immediate impact, and suits a bigger budget. We can talk it through at the survey visit.
