We make aquatic, marginal and bog plantings and plans for plantings in Surrey, West Sussex and Hampshire.
Plantings not only gladden the eye and enhance the landscape within which they sit but are also instrumental in creating a functioning, balanced ecosystem in and around ponds. lakes and water gardens. Planting - The essential finishing touch, to be borne in mind and looked forward to, right from the start of any project. Dare we say 'The best bit!'
Aquatic and marginal plants do best when planted/transplanted in the the full flood of growth. We make these plantings from May to early August. We design planting plans, create plant friendly habitat and make plantings in ponds, lakes, water gardens and their surroundings and we love doing it!
