Planting Design
A tailored planting scheme for your garden
Happy with the structure of your garden, but need help with the planting?
I provide bespoke planting design across Cumbria and the Lake District, creating schemes that combine well-chosen plants, seasonal interest and a strong sense of place for both new and established gardens.
Planting Design can be commissioned as a standalone service or included as part of a complete Garden Design
What planting design can include:
- Reviewing existing planting
- Preparing planting plans
- Developing plant combinations
- Preparing plant schedules
- Sourcing plants and carrying out planting
- Preparing plant care and maintenance plans

Planting to suit your needs
The planting approach can be shaped around what you want from your garden including: seasonal interest and year-round structure, wildlife-friendly planting, productive planting and low-maintenance planting.
How it Works
Review the garden
Look at the existing planting, site conditions and what is already working.
Develop the planting approach
Agree the character, priorities and type of planting the garden needs.
Create the planting plan
Develop plant combinations, quantities and layout into a clear planting scheme.
Sourcing and planting
Plant sourcing, planting and aftercare support can be provided where required.
Examples of planting design
Planting layouts, plant combinations and plans for ongoing care.
Need a complete garden design?
Planting Design can also form part of a complete Garden Design service, bringing the layout, features and planting together.
