Planting Design Fees for designs based on existing beds:
  • Single Planting Bed (up to 5m2): £250

  • Each Additional Bed or Area (up to 5m2): £200

  • Beds over 5m: Priced individually based on size and complexity

 

Complexity Fee (if applicable):

  • +£100–£250 for complex projects involving:

    • Multiple beds (5+ areas)

    • Dry shade, tree roots, boggy/marshy areas, slopes, difficult access

    • Integration with mature planting or structures

Working with Established Gardens & Existing Planting

Designing planting schemes around mature trees, established shrubs, or within existing beds takes extra care. Roots, light levels, soil conditions, and plant health all affect how a planting design works — making this a more thoughtful and time-intensive process than planting into a clear, new space.

I love working with established gardens, but please note:

Where a design involves planting into existing beds — especially with mature planting, tree roots, or where remedial work and plant replacement are needed — a complexity fee will apply.

This reflects the additional time and attention required to create planting that truly works with the garden you already have.

Final Planting Plan Includes:

  • Scaled plan with planting positions

  • Full plant list with Latin names

  • Planting notes (spacing, care tips)

 

Optional Add-ons:

  • Maintenance notes or seasonal care guide — £50

  • Sourcing and plant list costings — priced separately

 

Note:
All projects are quoted individually after the Discovery Session. These rates are a guideline — exact pricing depends on site and scope.

For projects where planting beds cover more than 30% of the garden area, a full design fee will apply rather than per-bed pricing.

💳 Payment Terms - How It Works


✔️ 50% deposit payable upon agreement
✔️ 50% balance due before submission of the final plan

Thyme & Wonder – Bite-Sized Garden Design

 

Not every garden needs a full redesign. Thyme & Wonder is perfect for when you want:

  • Planting advice from 5 photos — £90

  • Front garden refresh - PDF — £90

Unlike generic remote design services, I work with real knowledge of UK soil, light, and seasonal rhythms. Your planting plan is tailored not just to your garden—but to your climate zone, your conditions, and your lifestyle.

Ongoing Garden Support


Your garden is a living, evolving space — and I’m here to help it grow beautifully over time.  I offer ongoing support to help yours grow beautifully over time.

I offer optional annual or seasonal consultations to assess how your planting is developing, suggest adjustments, and provide advice on care and maintenance. Whether we’ve worked together recently or some time ago, I’m happy to offer ongoing support.:

  • Assess how your planting is developing

  • Suggest adjustments, replacements, or seasonal tweaks

  • Offer practical advice on care, pruning, and next steps

 

These follow-up visits are available by request, whether I designed your garden recently or some time ago.

Fee: £90 per hour plus mileage — by appointment

Why Work With a Garden Designer?

 

Designing a garden is about more than just choosing plants—it’s about crafting a space that thrives. Every garden has unique conditions (soil type, sunlight, water, wind exposure), and selecting the right plants requires expert knowledge and years of experience. A well-designed garden saves you time, money, and stress, providing lasting beauty without the frustration of trial and error.

And because I work mainly with UK-based clients, every recommendation I make is grounded in a real understanding of our weather, soil, and gardening traditions.

I provide expert design plans and planting schedules to guide you and/or your contractors in bringing your vision to life.

Working Together — My Commitment to You, and Yours to Me

 

I believe great gardens come from great collaborations. I’m committed to providing a creative, professional, and honest service — and I ask the same in return.

When we work together, I’ll:

  • Communicate clearly and openly

  • Honour agreed deadlines and scope

  • Respect your budget and ideas

  • Offer thoughtful, expert advice to create the best outcome for your garden

 

In return, I ask that my clients:

  • Communicate openly and respectfully

  • Honour agreed fees and payment terms

  • Understand that garden design is a creative and time-intensive process

  • Provide honest, constructive feedback during the design process so I can deliver the best possible result

  • Give permission (where comfortable) for me to photograph the completed design for my portfolio

 

I love working with clients who share these values — it’s the best way to make sure your garden design experience is positive and enjoyable.
