Low Maintenance Planting Ideas From MGD

Good Morning All,

Its a miserable day here in Essex. Mild, wet and ideal for plants.

Our latest blog offers some suggestions for low maintenance planting ideas that your clients will love.

What percentage of your clients would you say specifically request 'low maintenance' gardens? At our sister companies, Tapestry Design Studios and Holland Landscapes I'd say that at least 80% of enquirers are reluctant to consider lots of plants because they associate living things with lots of maintenance. I'm sure that your clients are much the same.

That's why, My Garden Design offer low maintenance planting plans. This service saves you a lot of head-scratching, makes it easier to sell your planting services and gives your clients confidence.

Fence spike in clay
Hi all,I'm erecting a close board timber fence in clay soil. Due to the clay and poor drainage I'm thinking of using fence spikes. Would clay be suitable? Would it provide enough stability for a 1.8 mt high fence? I'm considering using 15cm wide…

"I tend to look at things from their perspective, whilst also hoping to educate them of the benefits of a thriving ecosystem - so in your case, I'd have probably started with questions right back like "why do you want to get rid of them?" or "what do…"

Most are fascinated and…"

".. I generally refuse to sign such things on a personal level. If you want that signed, I'll go somewhere else - and if the work is done, what are you going to do? Now if I don't pay you, well that is a different matter"

"It's interesting though how many customers see any creature within their garden territory as an intruder . 
Fear of the unknown perhaps ?
