Garden Design
Creating stunning gardens
in the South East of England
Saul did a wonderful job for us, transforming a boring shady plot under some leylandii trees into a stunning Japanese garden. This garden now gives me so much pleasure every day and people always comment on how lovely it is. Saul came for a preliminary discussion and then based on that and some images I'd sent him on Pinterest he came up with a very professional folder of ideas and a proposed layout and planting plan which we approved. The installation went very smoothly and hey presto! a gorgeous garden that requires very little maintenance to look great.
I then asked Saul to work on our back garden to make it less masculine and add more flowers. He worked miracles again and now there is something looking lovely at every time of year.
Saul is incredibly knowledgeable and has a real flair for garden design. He's trustworthy and very nice just to have around. I highly recommend him. Mia, Muswell Hill, London
Saul has been a pleasure to work with over the past 3 years. He gave us a number of excellent design options at the outset and was able to accurately price the work and level of future maintenance required.
The garden is a joy to come home to every day and the envy of our neighbours! Anthony, West Finchley, London
Saul was introduced to me by a great friend. She obviously knows me well because Saul was the perfect fit for me. A truly lovely guy who clearly knows his Latin (and his plants!).
He got what I wanted very quickly and went on to create a little bit of magic on my terrace. He did such a good job that the neighbours knocked on my door and asked for his number.
I would highly recommend him not just for his creative gardening/landscaping skills but also his chat!

Saul worked on my garden in 2014. He re-designed the planting for a rather large space, creating structure and seasonal interest where there once was none, created a lush green fern bed where previously nothing grew and sewed a wild flower meadow that looks fantastic every year. He also built some railway sleeper steps and introduced some much needed colour on the walls of our raised bed.
Saul is a very friendly guy, has a really strong work ethic and has a great eye for design and detail. He transformed our space and now it's our pride and joy. I would recommend him to anyone.

We are really happy with the end result that Saul has helped us to achieve with our garden.
Our space is small and made up mainly of pots and a rear bed, however he took our inspiration and helped to advise and source plants which have flourished and developed into our own wild secret garden in North London. He has also been extremely helpful when it comes to the aftercare of the garden and plants and how to help them survive the winter.

Saul was introduced to me by a friend in 2015 and has worked on my garden ever since.
He is a good listener and quickly had a clear picture of what I wanted. He chose the perfect stone for my small patio, preparing the ground and laying it in a quick and efficient manner. He opened my mind to a number of plants i would not have chosen myself but that have become some of my favourites, introducing colour and texture that complemented my needs.
Overall Saul has helped create a more well-rounded design for my garden. Zoe, Archway, London
