Rockery Rejuvenation

This client asked me to rejuvenate an old rockery area which had become a mix of bare patches, unhealthy ground cover and a dominating shrub. All the unwanted plants were replaced with new ones to specifically add texture, colour and interest. The whole area opened up and appeared to double in size due to the renewed look, and the garden now has a new and attractive corner for the clients to enjoy.

Raised bed renewal

Two large raised beds feature in this client's sunny garden, but one had been neglected and the other was bare following the removal of shrubs and two trees. I implemented one Spring planting scheme in April and another in September, providing seasonal colour and interest for year-round enjoyment.

Edible Planters

My client The Last Post has become one of the top restaurants in Guernsey, following a renovation project. Executive Chef Lynsey Craggs is keen to use homegrown produce in her recipes, so I created these planters, full of useful vegetables and herbs for her kitchen.

Low-maintenance project

Rockeries are a great low-maintenance idea with year-round appeal, which create diverse microclimates that support specific plants and provide shelter for wildlife. They reduce water usage & soil erosion, and provide an appealing, natural focal point as was the case for this client.

Office Planting Concept

My client had just moved into a lovely new office but something was definitely missing until some creative planters were added to the space.

Window Dressing

Window boxes can be used for maximum effect to brighten up the front of a house, completely changing the aesthetic as with these examples which I planted for a friend in the Spring.

From Bare to Beautiful

My client was sad to remove a whole area of diseased shrubs, but was delighted when he saw my new planting scheme to replace them!

Gifting Ideas

Why not give the gift of a plant arrangement as a colourful and long-lasting idea for that someone special?
