Garden Management Services

About Garden Management:

Do you want to develop your garden, but don't have the time for planting or propagation?

Would you like to harvest your own food but can't fit in preparing the beds and sowing the seeds?

Perhaps you simply want to enjoy your space without the hassle of ordering compost and dealing with pests on plants.

Our Garden Management services enable you to have a beautiful garden without the guesswork.

Unlike our standard garden maintenance where we undertake primary tasks to maintain what you already have, our garden management services take the guesswork and administrative tasks off your hands. Within an agreed budget and service remit, we will make autonomous strategic decisions, including purchasing consumables and horticultural products on your behalf to provide a comprehensive service.

Through this service you benefit from our horticultural expertise, our design knowledge, and trade contacts.

Further examples of the service (which includes the standard garden maintenance tasks) are below:

Management versus Maintenance - What's the Difference

A maintenance gardener is a caretaker of your space, whereas a garden manager will make more strategic decisions.

Whether it's refining planting schemes, or responding to climate events, as your garden manager we anticipate needs before they arise.
