Garden care

Help the planting settle in and develop.

Seasonal care shaped around the design, the site and the way the garden is changing.

Care after handover

A landscape is finished. A garden keeps moving.

New planting needs different attention from an established garden. Early care is about roots, soil moisture and replacements; later work is more about pruning, balance and keeping the original structure legible.

A care plan sets priorities by season and by planting zone, rather than treating every visit as the same list of tasks.

What this can include

  • Seasonal garden reviews
  • Formative pruning and plant editing
  • Soil, mulch and feeding guidance
  • Replacement and infill planting
  • Irrigation checks and adjustments
  • Care priorities for owner-maintained gardens
Care that follows the garden

Observe. Plan. Adjust.

  1. 01

    Observe the garden

    Plant health, soil, exposure and the way each part of the garden is developing are reviewed.

  2. 02

    Plan the season

    Pruning, feeding, replacement planting and soil work are prioritised for the right time of year.

  3. 03

    Adjust over time

    Planting is edited as it matures so paths stay clear and the intended structure remains visible.
