I’m a creative planting consultant and wildlife gardener, based in Beeston, Nottingham. I give wildlife-friendly planting advice, design planting schemes, and create home-grown floral arrangements from my home and nearby.

planting design & advice

Whether it’s a container, full border, or an entire garden I offer planting design, advice and plant sourcing to help make the year-round best of your garden.

Consultations
If you’re just interested in some advice or ideas โ€“ I offer two Consultation only services.
Option One:
A chat, in your garden, to discuss what you have in mind and suggest plants or ideas. You can make notes.
ยฃ45 up to an hour

Option Two:
A hour’s chat in your garden. I make notes of what we discuss and you’ll receive a follow-up email from me with a digital booklet of bespoke suggestions, plant species to look into, and some online suppliers related to all we discussed. No need for you to make notes.

gardening for wildlife

As an issue very close to my heart, all my schemes, gardening, and gardens are wildlife friendly. I can help you to make your garden or outdoor space more welcoming to wildlife – as well as beautiful all year ’round.
