Organic Gardening Professionals in Selsey, West Sussex

“Very impressed by this firm. It's true to say that they took us 'on a journey', converting our small garden which had become a bit of a 'rewilding project' to something beautiful and usable. Scott visited us, and we decided to go for his design service, and he came up with three plans. Once the garden was cleared of four Leylandii and an apple tree, he came up with a fourth which we ultimately went with. Once the work started, we soon saw that James, the foreman on site, was a real perfectionist, and ably assisted by Jim and Mikey, it was a delight to see a mess transformed into something we're looking forward to using. After completion, we had a couple of minor snagging issues, and all resolved speedily and to our complete satisfaction. Apart from anything else, they're all nice people, and we're missing them already. No hesitation in recommending this firm.”

“Our project was to develop a medium-sized garden, four miles from the Sussex coast, which faces south-west and suffers strong winds, lethal for many plant species, Barry Chambers of Changing Scenes, of Bognor Regis, successfully designed a colourful garden of raised flower beds, mature trees, large shrubs, a vegetable and sitting area and a stone beach with seaside plants, creating a frame for views across fields and glorious sunsets. The work was put out to tender to about five firms, with husband and wife team Keymer Landscapes, of Barnham, Bognor Regis, who I would also recommend, selected. Barry Chambers' knowledge of plants, and their survival in these conditions, is excellent, as is his ability to explain his choices without pretension. The construction and gardening was hands-on supervised by Barry who regularly returns, post-project, to add plants and check the progress of the garden and its maintenance. Amanda Pearce, Highleigh, Chichester.”

“David has done an outstanding job on the complete overhaul of our garden. We did a significant refurbishment of our house and in the process the best parts of the garden were substantially destroyed whilst retaining the worst parts! David helped us from the original planning stage right through to the installation and now maintenance. The planning was very thoughtful, taking into account our preferences whilst continually bringing new ideas to the table. The plans he subsequently produced were very detailed and allowed us to get a real sense of what we were going to get. The plans were accompanied by detailed costings which have proved to be remarkably accurate as David works with nurseries with whom he has a long relationship with. The installation was a significant piece of work but David took charge of it, bringing in specialists where necessary but also doing much of the work himself and with a small team. This allows him to make adjustments to the plans where necessary to take into account the reality of what he finds on the site. During this process we were kept completely informed through regular phone and email contact, site visits and photos. The result is nothing short of spectacular - we could not be happier - and the work on the landscaping and garden has made the effort we put into the house even more worthwhile. I would unhesitatingly recommend David to friends and indeed have done so many times.”

“Jenna's creativity and style helped us achieve the front garden we had always wanted - we are the envy of the village thanks to Jenna's wonderful vision for our garden!”

“We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Andy Stedman Design, we could not be happier with the garden he designed and built for us. Andy worked with us to produce the initial design. He very quickly understood our requirements and produced a fabulous design that both met with the constraints of the plot and our exacting needs. We were then further impressed by Andy's post-design planning. He was able to demonstrate to us the process that would take us from the initial design through to completion. It was very professional and gave us complete confidence that he could deliver the garden of our dreams. Andy's landscaping team then carried out the works. Andy remained closely involved in the project on at least a daily basis, and he project managed extremely well. His team were friendly, respectful and polite, and a pleasure to have on site. The garden is complete now and is outstanding and I doubt very much that we would have achieved such an excellent result from another supplier. Andy's attention to detail was outstanding and ensured a quality of delivery that was far above anything we have experienced in the past. Andy Stedman Design gets the highest recommendation that we could possibly give to anyone. We wouldn't hesitate using them again. Martin and Marian Orchard-Webb Rousillon Park Chichester”

“Suzanne produced an imaginative design for our north facing courtyard, her knowledge to create a design for the plants that would grow in shade was extensive. She was attentive to detail and accuracy. She is also amiable and extremely reliable - a pleasure to work with and comes highly recommended,”

“Amy has done designs for three areas of our garden. The brief was low maintenance, harmoniuos colours (with what was already in the garden) and scented plants where possible. She met the brief perfectly (including the agreed budget), overseeing the construction of an exquisite patio with a small summer house and a rippling fountain, surrounded by scented plants which start in early Spring and are still going strong in late Autumn. Subsequently Amy has helped to maintain her designs making the whole thing virtually hassle free for us. We just get to enjoy the fruits of her skill and professionalism.”

“Rae Wilkinson is an award-winning garden designer who creates stunning, sustainable gardens with a naturalistic feel, backed with her deep horticultural knowledge and artistic flare. We are delighted to have worked with Rae on a number of projects, including her innovative RHS Hampton Court Flower Show design, "A breath of Fresh Air" for The Abbeyfield Society. Breathing new life into the concept of a sensory garden and celebrating 60 years of The Abbeyfield Society, Rae's design created a calming space for older people and specifically those living with dementia. Practicality Brown provided the Elveden Instant Hedge in Yew which provides an elegant backdrop to the design.”

“Fantastic job - totally grasped our brief and provided a truly great garden design which incorporated a re-design of our front garden to create a mews-style central courtyard with new beds, and a full re-design of the back garden with new beds and planting. Also designed paths around swimming pool and all associated plating. Great vision for the garden design and Inspired plant selections throughout the garden - would highly recommend.”

“Harriet came for an initial consultation to put some life into our small bleak lifeless garden. She offered suggestions of how to improve our space and make it work for us including making it child and dog friendly. Once commissioned, she refined these ideas and presented us with a well thought through design with lots of images so we could see what we were getting. Harriet is very a lovely, friendly, professional business woman. She introduced us to a landscaper who could build her designs. I would highly recommend Harriet to help you make the most out of your garden.”
