A good choice if you want a scale plan that includes placement of trees, major shrubs, infrastructure (e.g. paths, walls, chicken coops, earthworks) and you're comfortable deciding on where to put smaller plants like herbs and vegetables yourself. |
If you're the kind of person that likes 'paint by numbers' style instructions, where every single plant is listed on your plan, then this service is for you. |
If you need specific advice, like options for water harvesting in your garden, advice or designs for non-residential spaces, or a quick sketch on some element, I can tailor services for you. |
Here's how much a garden can change in just 18 months:

Left: our first garden, just after we moved in. Right, view from top of steps, approx 18 months later, the garden is vigorously growing annual vegetables and perennial herbs. Despite the small size, we also included several apple trees, a cherry, an apricot, a fig, an almond and two pears, though they were still small when we took this photo. Dividing the garden into two connected spaces makes it feel more spacious even though there are many more plants than before.
