Planting Services

 We know it is often very hard to find enough time to look after your balcony, terrace or garden due to busy daily schedules and family life. But we all love having a beautiful home that pleases our eyes and heart.


What we do
  • Create flower displays in your pots, baskets, window boxes or other containers each season to keep your green space beautiful throughout the year; 
  • Plant flowers, bulbs and shrubs to create a soothing, relaxing, happy, eye and heart warming environment..
  • Create edible gardens or herb gardens in your available space.
  • Create vertical gardens for small spaces.
  • Garden watering service, especially useful when you are away and can't do the job yourself.



How it works

We will visit your garden and take measurements of the area, beds or your containers, have a look at what's already planted and discuss with you what your thoughts on new plants are.

We are happy to deliver plants for your garden or alternatively you can buy these yourself and we will be able to plant them for you. However, please be aware, when buying your own plants, you will need to consider their suitability for your garden and the area you wish to plant them in. Plants may not do well or survive in your garden if it's a wrong environment for their growth. 

 Why use planting services

There is a wide variety of plants for borders and containers for every season, but knowing where and what works best can be a challenge for so many people. For this reason, we are here to help. We will choose plants considering your preferences and your garden's needs, coordinating and combining colours, textures and heights to provide a year round interest. With our help you will save time and hustle of shopping around for plants as well as planting.
