Perhaps the most important part of our landscaping service is the care of plants and their planting. Not only is the planting carried out with care, but thought is put into all-year round enjoyment and interest of your garden.
Our plants are supplied either from our own nurseries or from wholesale trade nurseries who have proven track records and a wide array of stock to choose from. When coupled with our irrigation systems, the plants thrive and flourish providing beautiful ground cover, features and all year colour. A good example of this is the two bottom photo's to the left - these photos show firstly how small and spaciously the plants have been planted and, after only a year, how they have developed under the care of an irrigation system.
The plant stock we tend to choose comes as young stock, allowing the garden to mature. This allows you to increase the number and range of planting keeping a project cost effective. On the other hand, you may require mature specimens for that 'instant effect'. Whilst this will increase the overall price of the project or limit your choice of plants through budgetary constraints, it does allow for the 'wow' effect - a must for the Ground Force type of surprise project we occasionally undertake.

In most instances, we are requested to add colour and interest without the troubles of weeding or much maintenance. As such our plants are planted through a landscaping membrane which not only helps prevent weed growth, but also aides water retention. Bark mulch or an aggregate mix (gravel) together with rockery stone covers and hides the membrane, adding additional interest to the plants through texture and framing.
We also lay lawns! Whether it is a patch-up, replacement or new lawn, with or without edging, no lawn is too large or small for us or our suppliers. Follow this link for more information.
