In every garden I design I work as much as possible with the lie of the land to avoid excessive construction work. In planting schemes I generally select plants that will flourish in your particular soil and aspect and will be favourable to local wildlife - so if you live in Dorset my suggestions won't be the same as if you live in Yorkshire! Whatever your requirements from your garden - whether it is to accomodate young children; attract lots of insects, birds and small mammals; do your gardening from a wheel chair; grow masses of fruit and veg; or simply sit on a lounger enjoying the fragrance and rustle of leaves - I will design a garden to perfectly meet those needs. Sometimes this is a major change. Sometimes it's just minor tweaking. Whatever the starting point, you will always end up with a garden that will be easy to look after and give you interest all year round.
