Plant sourcing & planting

The right plant, in the right place.

Once a consultation or planting design is complete, finding healthy plants in the right sizes and quantities can take considerable time. Sue can source the specified plants through a network of reputable nurseries and growers, using years of plant-buying experience to compare quality and choose strong specimens.

Plants can be delivered or brought to the garden, then placed in their final positions so the composition can be reviewed and adjusted before planting. Sue can also help with planting, compost, watering and mulching, giving the new scheme the best possible start.

From plant list to planted border

Careful sourcing keeps the character of the original design intact while allowing sensible substitutions when a variety is unavailable. Final placement brings rhythm, spacing and balance together on the ground, where small adjustments often make a real difference.

You can choose help with sourcing alone, placement for you or your contractor, or practical assistance through to completion.
