Organic Gardening Professionals in Wickford, Essex

“Sarah and the team were outstanding from the first design consultation through to the final shrub was planted. So quick too. We’ve had a great first summer with our new garden.”

“Highly knowledgeable about all aspects of planting in the garden. Impressive practical knowledge and skills when it comes to maintenance of a garden, bearing in mind budget implications and restrictions. There is not much Bramley Apple doesn't know about garden design, demonstrating a willingness and skill to research an effective solution to problems such as poor soil, challenging landscapes or difficult areas within the garden. After five years, our garden is maturing into a wonderful space which is used daily and has given us such lasting pleasure. We couldn't have wished for a better design!”

“It was a pleasure to work with Nilufer from Lotus Design Studio on a commercial landscaping project. The designs produced were of excellent quality despite the demanding deadlines with good communication channels from design right through to construction.”

“Aralia designed and built our small garden, transforming the ragged mish-mash of unplanned year-on-year additions into a more modern space with two water features and plenty of room to sit at various points to admire the planting and the design. Height is achieved through pleached hornbeams, black bamboo (which grows up rather than out) and a crab apple. The illusion of greater space in what is a small garden is provided by the rill and pond and pathways. Distinct planted areas now lead the eye to the flowers and plants. All completed with the minimum fuss and in good time.”

“We reached out to Lis Eriksson to completely redesign and re-landscape our 3.6 acre garden in West Sussex. Looking for somebody that could translate our vision for the grounds and the unique property that it houses. The existing garden felt very alien to the house in an English cottage garden style whilst our house is a mid century modern remodel. We gave her a large complex brief including building a terrace (300sqm in the end) including a space for dining and cooking, a sundeck, large seating area with a fire pit, a wood fired hot tub, herb garden and additional gardens connecting the adjoining annex space of the house. Alongside 2 x 100sqm plus borders, planting 60 specimen trees an extended meadow and a nuttery. Not only did Lis produce beautiful visuals alongside her master and planting plans, but also helped us source materials, furniture etc. during covid. Managing numerous supply issues, still able to get each phase of the project completed with her flexible approach, attention to detail and in-depth design and architecture know how. All whilst providing a professional service and clear communication throughout. We are just about to embark on adding a pool to the garden which we now very much enjoy and look forward to working with Lis again.”

““ James really managed to see our vision when we weren’t even sure what it was ourselves. He took his time to listen to our thoughts, spent plenty of time going through all our likes and dislikes to really understand us, and managed to put together a garden which was beyond anything we could’ve imagined for ourselves. The kind of thing you admire at other peoples houses and never expect to have at your own… We found James incredibly relaxed and easy to work with - a genuinely lovely guy to have around. We couldn’t be happier with the final outcome and our only regret is not having done it sooner “”

“Victoria paid close attention to the ideas that we had for our completely blank canvas, new build garden. We only had ideas, but we lack the vision to pull those ideas together, and that's where Victoria really helped us. She created a few options and we found it so hard to choose a favourite, ending up pulling a few bits from each together to create a vision. Our garden plan is full and thorough and includes a fully comprehensive list of plants to include and where to place them. Our design has now been sent to some landscapers for quoting and we have recieved compliments from these professionals for the clarity of the design and spec. We are so excited to progress our design from Plans For Plants, and have a garden to relax in and enjoy.”

“I live in West London and two years ago decided to completely revamp our back garden to make it a beautiful summer outdoor space. I contacted several different garden designers but none of the designers completely fitted the vision I had in mind. I was lucky enough to come across David by sheer chance recommendation and I knew right away that David would design, deliver and work with us to create the perfect space. Wow, what a space David has created!! David worked very closely with me in the design stages and was endlessly patient with my ideas. I now have a stunning garden that I couldn't be more proud of and which exceeded all my expectations in what we could achieve in a reasonably moderate London garden. David is a true professional always on time, communicates exceptionally well and guides his clients perfectly through the project. I could not be happier with David's work. Do not hesitate to get in touch with David - you will not regret it! I'm so happy with my garden that I then landscaped the front garden using David's design, build and planting skills. I am always complimented by my neighbours on how gorgeous the front now looks! It is a pleasure to return home and see my beautiful plants. I must also point out that David was brilliant with the planting scheme too as I completed it in two stages due to the cost of mature plants. David completely understood my budget boundaries and helped me to achieve a great garden without breaking the bank. On a final note, David now maintains my garden several times a year and keeps it looking in tip top condition. His planting skills are second to none! Thank you, David!!!!!!”

“Laura was great with our garden design. She took our smallish garden and designed it to feel spacious and interesting. She was so helpful with sourcing and picking materials and recommending a landscaper which completely took the stress and uncertainty away from those difficult decisions. Her planting design worked so well in our garden and she ensured all plants and materials worked cohesively with our kitchen. Would highly recommend!”

“Great results for my garden which I never thought possible it was uneven ground and extremely full of weeds.. I was absolutely amazed at the end result.”
