COLWYNN DESIGN · WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER

Services

Every project starts the same way: a site visit, a conversation about how you want to use your garden. From there, I offer a few ways to work together, depending on how much support you need.

FULL DESIGN SERVICE

From Concept to Completed Garden

From Concept to Completed Garden

From concept through to a detailed planting plan, hard landscaping drawings, and guidance during the build. This is the option most clients choose for a full garden transformation. We can take care of all the soft landscaping, like planting, irrigation, and lighting. You will need to work with a landscaper for hardscaping, like concrete work or any structures. We will provide plans and assist with the liaison to get these installed.


Some of our clients use our plans to install their gardens themselves, and we can assist with the supply of materials using our trusted network of wholesale suppliers.

PLANTING PLAN ONLY

A Bespoke Planting Plan

A Bespoke Planting Plan

For gardens that already have their layout and hard landscaping in place, a bespoke, drought-tolerant, wildlife-friendly planting plan suited to your soil, light, and Surrey’s climate.


As with our full design plans, we can do all the bed preparation and planting for you, or we can assist in the supply of materials if you'd like to manage it yourself.

Planting refresh

Refresh Beds and Bulb Planting

Refresh Beds and Bulb Planting

If you do not need an entire makeover but would like to replace your plant beds with more resilient and drought-tolerant plants we can do small planting refreshes for you.


We can also plan and install bulb planting using resilient bulbs that will regrow every year. Working with our trusted network of wholesale suppliers, we can obtain bulbs in bulk at much cheaper prices than the small packets found at garden centres. Even a small residential garden can need hundreds of bulbs.

Irrigation and Lighting Plans

Irrigation and Lighting Plans

For existing gardens, we can create and install drip irrigation systems to help establish new plants or help them thrive during summer droughts. Drip irrigation is a very efficient method of watering that is permitted for use even during hosepipe bans.


As a further enhancement of your garden, we can create and install lighting systems that can be used to illuminate your garden at night,.
