“From the initial on-site meeting I was impressed with Sam‘s professionalism and his attention to detail. He listened to what I wanted… and offered constructive ideas to enable this to be achieved.”
Problem
Garden was dominated by an unattractive patio
Plants were uncohesive and not fit for purpose or taste
Lawn was too small and felt a little ‘pointless’
Previous bad experience with landscaper
Solution
Reduce the patio
Add a curved line to the bed to draw the eye, create movement, soften the hard rectangular edges of the boundary and entice you into the garden
Lawn was extended to wrap around the patio this gave space for the dog and softened the transition from patio to garden
A planting plan of herbaceous perennials was devised, including Gaura, Hemerocallis, Leucanthemum, Penstemon, Solidago and Rudbeckia. This added plenty of colour and year round interest as well as being low maintenance - the garden only requires 1 - 2 maintenance visits from a professional gardener per year
Result
“Sam has managed to achieve a wonderful enhancement to my home.
His attention to detail is beyond fault and his workmanship is highly commendable.
I highly recommend Sam’s service to anybody wanting to work with a design and landscaping service that is professional, extremely well priced and delivers a coordinated and professional result”
