Soft Landscaping – Borders and Planting

Soft landscaping is the finishing touch that will continue to evolve and grow as your garden matures. A garden with well designed border planting, trees and shrubs can be enjoyed for many years beyond the initial build and whilst planting schemes will instantly soften and help bed in new structures, an established garden will continue to bring satisfaction and enjoyment year-on-year.

There are many styles of planting that can be considered for your space, from modern formal planting schemes to a more traditional cottage style garden, climate affected coastal wind-hardy schemes or specifically themed courtyards, whether English, Mediterranean or Alpine.

Smaller courtyard spaces can be brought to life with vertical planting, and attention paid to sensory elements like sound and scent. Bold planting can work in small spaces, making a feature or focal point to draw your eye, or alternately using large established plants to obscure the view of passers-by.

Ensuring your budget stretches to include the best possible planting scheme is always advised. It has never been more true that patience is a virtue here, so if the budget is tight and you are willing to wait, we can plant smaller less established plants to get your garden growing. If it is instant impact you are looking for, larger plants are just the ticket, but they come with a higher price tag.
