Aftercare from the people who planted it
A new garden takes a couple of seasons to settle. Our aftercare visits keep it on track, carried out by the same small team who built it and know every plant by name.

Aftercare visits are planned around the seasons rather than the clock. In spring we cut back, feed and mulch; in summer we deadhead, tie in and keep on top of weeds; in autumn we tidy, divide and plant bulbs; and in winter we prune and check structures.
You'll see the same faces on each visit, usually Jack or Tom, and they'll leave a short note of what was done and anything worth knowing. We look after gardens we've built and a small number of established gardens nearby.
Visits can be monthly, fortnightly or seasonal, and you can pause them whenever you like. There's no contract.

Berkhamsted
A sandstone terrace and family lawn on the edge of the common
The owners of this 1930s house wanted to open up the back of the garden to the view and give their children a proper lawn. The old patio had sunk and drained back towards the house.
