Helping landscapers to put the right plant in the right place



The layout of a garden and the quality of the hard landscaping is a crucial part of creating a great user experience. After all, those elements are literally set in stone.

But it's the plants that give a garden it's ambience and its "soul". Beautiful planting shows the hard landscaping off to it's very best advantage....often earning landscapers a lot of word of mouth advertising.

Many of my landscaping colleagues are incredibly skilled at creating structures, making surfaces beautiful and building gardens that last. But when it comes to the planting - they're left scratching their heads. Or worse - they place the wrong plants in the wrong place and in 6 months time they have the cost of resolving client complaints.

    Using planting to show off hard landscaping, now that's a concept for sure.

    We prefer the 'use of the hard landscaping' to get to, to see  and experience the best part of a garden, the plants.

    Plants would always be the showstoppers for us:-)

    Good hard and soft Landscaping compliment each other so well. Without one or the other a garden just does not work how it should.
